Too far away from the city
Some kids left on their own
They said we had a communist in the family
I had to wear a mask
Too far away from the city
We had to make this room
Fathers were football players, Volvo workers, policemen
What the mothers did I didn't know
Music tonight
I just want your music tonight
I saw her by the organ
She was laughing while pressing the keys
She said my favourite book was dirty and
You should not show you can read
Too far away from the city
We never heard its noise
We learned how to stay fit and things like
Green tones hide the blush
Music tonight
I just want your music tonight
Music tonight
I just want your music tonight
Too far away from the city
We came to breathe clean air
Nature lovers' safe oasis
And the mothers walked towards the forest
Music tonight
I just want your music tonight
Music tonight
I just want your music tonight
Some kids left on their own
They said we had a communist in the family
I had to wear a mask
Too far away from the city
We had to make this room
Fathers were football players, Volvo workers, policemen
What the mothers did I didn't know
Music tonight
I just want your music tonight
I saw her by the organ
She was laughing while pressing the keys
She said my favourite book was dirty and
You should not show you can read
Too far away from the city
We never heard its noise
We learned how to stay fit and things like
Green tones hide the blush
Music tonight
I just want your music tonight
Music tonight
I just want your music tonight
Too far away from the city
We came to breathe clean air
Nature lovers' safe oasis
And the mothers walked towards the forest
Music tonight
I just want your music tonight
Music tonight
I just want your music tonight

I think this song refers to the Black Hole comics as well. Green hides redness (of scars, burns, cuts, "growths"). The forest refers to how some of the mutant teens wanted to get away from cities/crowds. And on and on. The mood and the theme fits. There are other songs on the album making a reference to Black Hole. So I think this is one of them. This is what I thought they were referring to but I'm sure other interpretations are OK and interesting and I'd guess welcome by the band as they keep the lyrics general enough.
