Say, Hey!

Coming down like an Armageddon flame (Hey!)

I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives

Just cause, just cause, because we're outlaws yeah!
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
This is our lives on holiday
