Talk of the Town - Ayreon, Tom Baker, Tommy Karevik

A few weeks have passed

And Abby and Daniel are still madly

Hopelessly in love

Try as they might

It’s impossible for them to hide it

And Why should they?

And it is equally obvious

That Daniel’s Brother Henry

Does not approve

No —

Not one little bit

And Henry plans to do something

About it

Do you see them

Do you hear them?

They’re talking about you

I believe them

I agree with them

You will bring our

Great house down

You will bring our great house down

You’re the talk of the town

I know you want her

But don’t you trust her

Our wealth is all the craves

Can’t you see it now

Can’t you feel it how

She’ll drag our

Good name

Down

She will drag our good name down

She’s the talk of the town (aow!)

You couldn’t be more wrong (no)

I won’t hear your lies

I never felt so strong

I never felt so right (no)

No matter what they say

No matter what they do (no!)

I will find a way (ey)

The life I choose (oh oh oh!)

This will break you down

Turn your world around

This will seal your fate

Nothing good awaits

This will spell your doom

On the road to ruin

When she’s got your gold

She’ll swallow your soul

Don’t you judge us

Why begrudge us

The love that we have found?

Are you jealous

Can you tell us why

You want to bring us down

You don’t know me

If you could only

See with honest eyes

It is obvious

You are envious

So you’re trying to

Drag us down

This is why you drag us down

You’re the talk of the town

I will break you down

Turn your world around

I will seal your fate

Nothing good awaits

I will spell you doom

On the road to ruin

I can’t wait to tell dad

It will drive him mad

You couldn’t be more wrong

I will break you down

We won’t hear your lies

Turn your world around

We never felt so strong

I will seal your fate

We never felt so right

Nothing good awaits

No matter what you say

I will spell your doom

No matter what you do

On the road to ruin

We will find our way

I can’t wait to tell dad

The life we choose (…)

It will drive him mad (…)

(…aaa!)
