"Islands" by Oingo Boingo

Island in the sea 
Are so much like me 
They don't ever change--no emotion, no emotion 

Islands on the land 
Dry like desert sand 
Island in the city 
All alone it's such a pity 

CHORUS 
It's just a masquerade 
Just painted faces 
When will it change 
Never 

Islands in the seas 
What's come over me 
We are both surrounded by the water--empty water 
Give me mystery--and the fear it brings 
Anything at all to break up the monotony 

CHORUS 

Islands in the sea 
Forever . . . forever
