英國實力歌手［保羅楊］──新浪潮／電子流行曲──［Im Gonna Tear Your Playhouse Down／我將拆毀你的劇場］

You think youve got it all set up

You think youve got the perfect plan

To charm everyone you see

And playing any game you can

But Ive got news for you

I hope it dont hit you too hard

One of these days

While youre at play

Im gonna catch you off guard

Im gonna tear your playhouse down

Pretty soon

Im gonna tear your playhouse down

(The way you are)

Room by room

You make our lives a stress and strain

Using the power ploy

All you do is pass around

Hearts you use as play toys

Youve been playing madly

With every mind in town

So what you gonna do

When you look up one day

And see your playhouse tumbling down?

Im gonna tear your playhouse down

Pretty soon

Im gonna tear your playhouse down

(The way you are)

Room by room

You think youve got it all set up

You think youve got the perfect plan

To charm everyone you see

And playing any game you can

And youve been playing madly

With every mind in town

Oh, what you gonna do

When you look up one day

And see your playhouse tumbling down?

Im gonna tear your playhouse down

Pretty soon

Im gonna tear your playhouse down

(The way you are)

Room by room

Im gonna tear your playhouse down

Pretty soon

Im gonna tear your playhouse down

(The way you are)

Room by room
