  • Some kind of nature
    Some kind of soul
    Some kind of mixture
    Some kind of goal
    Some kind of majesty
    Some chemical load

    Some kind of metal made up from glue
    Some kind of plastic I could wrap around you

    The needy eat man-mades
    They wear phony clothes
    They sit with our picture up until they grow old

    Some kind of nature
    Some kind of soul
    Some kind of mixture
    Some kind of goal
    Some kind of majesty
    Some chemical load

    Well, me, I like plastics and digital foils
    Could wrap up the sound and protect the girls
    From the spiritual poison we expel at night
    Like phony clothes but I really like might

    Some kind of nature
    Some kind of nature
    Some kind of soul
    Come from within us
    Oh Lord, forgive me
    Some kind of mixture
    Some kind of gold
    It's got to come and find us
    All we are is dust

    Some kind of metal made up from glue
    Some kind of plastic I could wrap around you
    The needy eat man-mades
    They wear phony clothes
    They sit with our picture up until they grow old

    Some kind of nature
    Some kind of nature
    Some kind of soul
    Come from within us
    Oh Lord, forgive me
    Some kind of mixture
    Some kind of gold
    It's got to come and find us
    All we are is dust Writer/s: DAMON ALBARN, JAMIE HEWLETT, LOU REED
