Only Solutions Lyrics

In the jungle I run tonight
Find no peace to logical life
No confusion, just wrong or right, oh yeah

Faces, numbers I recognize
You don't fool me with cynical lies
No problems, no compromise, oh yeah

Only solutions
Don't pull me down, I just wanna hear
Only solutions
Oh, it won't be long, it won't take too long

Modern times drive me insane
Explanations I can't explain
Leaves me standing in the rain, oh yeah

Solving mysteries with nothing to lose
Magic leaves you without any clues
There's only so much one man can do, oh yeah

Only solutions
Don't pull me down, I just wanna hear
Only solutions
Oh it won't be long, it won't take too long
Only solutions
Don't pull me down, I just wanna hear
Now that the sun is shining
Clear vision, clear vision
In the jungle I run tonight
Find no peace to logical life
No confusion, just wrong or right, oh yeah

Faces, numbers I recognize
You don't fool me with cynical lies
No problems, no compromise, oh yeah

Only solutions
It's my point of view
Only solutions
Oh, clear vision
Only solutions
No second thoughts
Only solutions
No, no, no contradictions

People reason
People reason
No escape

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

One of two songs contributed by Journey to the soundtrack of Disney’s 1982 sci-fi cult classic Tron, this track’s title comes from a line delivered by protagonist Kevin Flynn just before he is digitized into the computer world.

Like a man says: There’s no problems, only solutions.

Though never released as a commercial single, a promotional 7" serviced to rock stations in 1982 helped the song reach number 22 on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock chart. The liner notes of Journey’s 1992 box set Time3 posit that much of the song’s airplay came from rock stations in Florida.
