When the half light makes for a clearer view
Sleep a little more if you want to But restlessness has siezed me now, it’s true I could watch the dreams flicker in your eyes Lying here asleep on a sunbeam I wonder if you realise you fascinate me so Think about a new destination If you think you need inspiration Roll out the map and mark it with a pin I will follow every direction Just lace up your shoes while I’m fetching a sleeping bag, a tent... Another summer’s passing by All I need is somewhere I feel the grass beneath my feet A walk on sand, a fire I can warm my hands My joy will be complete I thought about a new destination I’m never short of new inspiration Roll out the map and mark it with a gin Made my plans to conquer the country I’m waiting for you to get out of your situation With your job and with your life All I need is somewhere I feel the grass beneath my feet A walk on sand A fire, I can warm my hands My joy will be complete Another summer’s passing by All I need is somewhere I feel the grass beneath my feet A walk on sand, a fire I can warm my hands My joy will be complete |

Joseph was travelling with a heavy load
His dreams were broken and deep sorrow flowed from his brow Closer to sundown he prepared to rest Set down the burden, lay upon his chest Then she came Sir, come to me and I will keep you warm Taste hope in my skin and faith with the dawn You will rise Beyond the sunrise that is where we live Feeding our counsel and true comfort give Travelling men Joseph was sure the liquor had caused this dream His eyes were sure that heaven was not her scene She was no saint Sir, come to me and I will keep you warm Taste hope in my skin and faith with the dawn you will rise |

I'll make another movie
The same one as the year before take a tired idea put it in the hands of Hollywood I need to talk to someone I've been living someone else's life I don't get no mail at my house anymore My manager's my bride I'm sittion on a jet plane I'll see my baby soon enough I won't take her to the movie I'm worried that the lines become all blurred I couldn't help but feeling something When the boss told us to act that way I'm ashamed of my profession I would do the same again I'll make another movie Same one as the year before I'm looking for a story Something ludicrous to rise up frome the street I won't play another heavyweight I won't play another big John Shaft Put me in a frock and leave me to recite Maybe my career will die |

In the summer
all the hikers hike out for the highest peaks All the children watch the cricket and they never wash for weeks In the suburbs young proteseors write "Black and White United" They're tearing up the streets I'm half in love with every girl I meet The gasman loves the street He loves to drill He loves to think about his girl The sun is melting half the street In the summer all the workers head out for the sandy beach Stay together in all weather Entertainment through your grief Communities of prejudices travel on the train The upperclass will have to pass the chance up of a knees-up with the gang Your record profits will buy you an island There's a jigsaw with a picture, all the country as a map Hikers hiking, cyclers cycling, if I go I'm not coming back I'm all in love with all the girls I meet, the harcore summer kind Kitchen porters, budding painters, whisky touring guides In the rain all your plans will fad You'll be left with the jigsaw |

It's been a bloody stupid day
My baby called me up to say Don't call me love, don't call me It's not all she said I truly love her but I know I'm bad for her, I'm bad and so At least she may forgive me for my honesty My friend came back from being abroad He was rich and I was overawed His ship came in I'm standing on the harbour wall Another friend, the one I love Turns to me "Have you seen enough?" "Let's hang about There's nothing like a sunset" It's been a bloody stupid day Don't leave the light on baby My baby called me up to say Don't leave the light on baby I'll see you sometime maybe Don't leave the light on baby It finally dawned on me tonight Best to go down without a fight I know you will forgive me for my honesty |

Ease you're feet off in the sea
My darling it's the place to be Take your shoes off curl your toes And I will frame this moment in time Troubles come and troubles go The trouble that we've come to know Will stay with us till we get old Will stay with us till somebody decides to go Decides to go Soberly without regret make another sandwich And I fill my face know that things have got to you But what can do Suddenly without a warning On a pale blue morning You decide your time is wearing thin A conscious choice to let yourself go dangling Hovering It's an emergency There's no more wait and see Maybe if I shut my eves Your trouble will be split between us People come and people go You're scouring everybodies face For some small flicker of the truth To what it is that you are going through my boy I left you dry The signs were clear that you were not going anywhere Anywhere Save for a falling down Save for a falling down Anywhere Anywhere Save for a falling down Everything's going wrong Later on as I walked home The plough was showing and orion I could see the house where you lived I could see the house where you gave All your time and sanity to people Then you waited for the people to acknowledge you They spoke in turn But their eyes would pass over you Over you Who's seeing you at all Who's seeing You at all |

I've been feeling down
I've been looking round the town For somebody just like me But the only ones I see Are the dummies in the window They spend their money on clothes It saddens me to think That the only ones I see are mannequins Looking stupid, being used and being thin And I don't know why I hang around with them The way they act, I'd rather be fat than be confused The way they act, I'd rather be fat than be confused Than be me in a cage With a bottle of rage And a family like the mafia I've been feeling blue And I don't know what to do And I never get a thrill And they threw me out of school 'Cause I swore at all the teachers Because they never teach us A thing I want to know We do Chemistry, Biology and Maths I want Poetry and Music and some laughs And I don't think it's an awful lot to ask So won't you please get up off your knees, and let me go So won't you please get up off your knees, and let me go Cause I'm here in a cage With a bottle of rage And a family like the mafia If my family tree goes back to the Romans Then I will change my name to Jones If my family tree goes back to Napolean Then I will change my name to Smith If my family tree goes back to the Romans Then I will change my name to Jones If you're looking at me to be an accountant Then you will look but you will never see If you're looking at me to start having babies Then you can wish because I'm not here to fool around You can wish because I'm not here to fool around You can wish because I'm not here to fool around |

Ooh Get me away from here
I'm dying Play me a song to set me free Nobody writes them like they used to So it may as well be me Here on my own now after hours Here on my own now on a bus Think of it this way You could either be successful or be us With our winning smiles and us With our catchy tunes and us Now we're photogenic You know we don't stand a chance oh I'll settle down with some old story About a boy who's just like me Thought there was love in everything and everyone You're so naive They always reach a sorry end After a while they always get it Still it was worth it as I turned the pages solemnly and then With a winning smile the boy With naivet succeeds At the final moment I cried I always cry at endings Oh that wasn't what I mean to say at all From where I'm sitting rain Washing against the lonely tenement Has set my mind to wander Into the windows of my lovers They never know unless I write This is no declaration I just thought I'd let you know goodbye Said the hero in the story It is mightier than swords I could kill you sure But I could only make you cry with these words cry with these words cry with these words cry with these words Get me away I'm dying Get me away I'm dying Get me away I'm dying Get me away I'm dying Get me away I'm dying Get me away I'm dying Get me away I'm dying Get me away I'm dying |

After a while they always get it They always reach a sorry end Still it was worth it as I turned the pages solemnly, and then With a winning smile, the boy With naivety succeeds At the final moment, I cried I always cry at endings Oh, that wasn't what I meant to say at all From where I'm sitting, rain Washing against the lonely tenement Has set my mind to wander Into the windows of my lovers They never know unless I write "This is no declaration, I just thought I'd let you know goodbye" Said the hero in the story "It is mightier than swords I could kill you sure But I could only make you cry with these words" |

I don't understand the thrill of the game I don't want to play football I don't understand the thrill of the running, catching, throwing Taking orders from a moron Grabbing for the sweaty crotches Getting hit by people I don't know Sugar, I'd rather play a different sort of game Sugar, the girls are just as good as boy at playing |

I fought in a war and I left my friends behind me
To go looking for the enemy, and it wasn't very long Before I would stand with another boy in front of me And a corpse that just fell into me, with the bullets flying round And I reminded myself of the words you said when we were getting on And I bet you're making shells back home for a steady boy to wear Round his neck, well it won't hurt to think of you as if you're waiting for This letter to arrive because I'll be here quite a while I fought in a war and I left my friends behind me To go looking for the enemy, and it wasn't very long Before I found out that the sickness there ahead of me Went beyond the bedsit infamy of the decade gone before And I reminded myself of the words you said when we were getting on And I bet you're making shells back home for a steady man to wear Round his neck, well it won't hurt to think of you as if you're waiting for This letter to arrive because I'll be here quite a while I fought in a war, and I didn't know where it would end It stretched before me infinitely, I couldn't really think Of the day beyond now, keep your head down pal There's trouble plenty in this hour, this day I can see hope I can see light And I reminded myself of the looks you gave when we were getting on And I bet you're making shells back home for a steady man to wear Round his neck, well it won't hurt to think of you as if you're waiting for This letter to arrive because I'll be here quite a while |

If she wants me
I wrote a letter on a nothing day I asked somebody “Could you send my letter away?” “You are too young to put all of your hopes in just one envelope” I said goodbye to someone that I love It’s not just me, I tell you it’s the both of us And it was hard Like coming off the pills that you take to stay happy Someone above has seen me do alright Someone above is looking with a tender eye Upon her face, you may think you’re alone but you may think again If I could do just one near perfect thing I’d be happy They’d write it on my grave, or when they scattered my ashes On second thoughts I’d rather hang about and be there with my best friend If she wants me And far away somebody read the letter He condescends to read the words I wrote about him And if he smiles, it’s no more than a genius deserves For all his curious nerve and his passion I’m going deaf, you’re growing melancholy Things fall apart, I don’t know why we bother at all But life is good and “It’s always worth living at least for a while” If I could do just one near perfect thing I’d be happy They’d write it on my grave, or when they scattered my ashes On second thoughts I’d rather hang about and be there with my best friend If she wants me If you think to yourself “What should I do now?” Then take the baton, girl, you better run with it There is no point in standing in the past cause it’s over and done with I took a book and went into the forest I climbed the hill, I wanted to look down on you But all I saw was twenty miles of wilderness so I went home |

If you find yourself caught in love Say a prayer to the man above Thank him for everything you know You should thank him for every breath you blow If you find yourself caught in love Say a prayer to the man above You should thank him for every day you pass Thank him for saving your sorry ass If you’re single, but looking out You must raise your prayer to a shout Another partner must be found Someone to take your life beyond Another TV “I Love 1999” Just one more box of cheapo wine If you find yourself caught in love You should say a prayer to the man above If you don’t listen to the voices then my friend You’ll soon run out of choices What a pity it would be You talk of freedom don’t you see The only freedom that you’ll ever really know Is written in books from long ago Give up your will to Him that loves you Things will change, I’m not saying overnight But something has to give You’re too good looking not to live If you find yourself out of love Shed a tear for the one you love Tell your boss that you’ve gone away Down your tools for a holiday If you’re going off to war then I wish you well But don’t be sore If I cheer the other team Killing people’s not my scene I prefer to give the inhabitants a say Before you blow their town away I like to watch them play I like to marvel at the random beauty of a simple village girl Why should she be the one who’s killed? If you find yourself caught in love... |

because he thought he'd never feel this way again If he goes back to the house then things would go from bad to worse what could he do He wants to remember things exactly as he left them on that Wednesday And if there is something else beyond he isn't scared because It's bound to be less boring than today It's bound to be less boring than tomorrow Hilary walked to her death because she couldn't think of anything to say Everybody thought that she was boring so they never listened anyway Nobody was really saying anything of interest she fell asleep She was into S&M and bible studies Not everyone's cup of tea she would admit to me Her cup of tea she would admit to no one Her cup of tea she would admit to me Oh cup of tea she would admit to no one Hilary went to the Catholic Church because she wanted information The vicar or whatever took her to one side and gave her confirmation Saint Theresa's calling her the church up on the hill is looking lovely But it doesn't interest the only things she wants to know is How and why and when and where to go How and why and when and where to follow How and why and when and where to go How and why and when and where to follow But if you are feeling sinister Go off and see a minister He'll try in vain to take away the pain of being a hopeless unbeliever When she got back her spirituality was thrown into confusion So she got a special deal on renting From the man at Rediffusion Look at me I'm on TV It makes up for the short comings of being poor Now I'm in a million pieces picked up for deliberation By the people listening at home By the people watching on the telly By the people listening at home By the people watching on the telly But if you are feeling sinister Go off and see a minister He'll try in vain to take away the pain of being a hopeless unbeliever But if you are feeling sinister Go off and see a minister Chances are you'll probably feel better If you stayed and played with yourse |

Is it wicked not to care
when they say that you're mistaken Thinking hopes and lots of dreams that aren't there Is it wicked not to care when you've wasted many hours Talking endlessly to anyone that's there I know the truth awaits me But still I hesitate because of fear Skipping tickets making rhymes Is that all that you believe in Wearing rags to make you pretty by design Rusting armour for effect It's not fun to watch the rust grow For it will all be over when you're dead Counting acts and clutching thoughts By the river where the moss grows Over rocks the water running all the time Is it wicked when you smile Even though you feel like crying Even though you could be sick at any time But if there was a sequel Would you love me as an equal Would you love me till I'm dead If there was a sequel Would you love me like an equal Would you love me till I'm dead and if there was a sequel Would you love me as an equal Would you love me till I'm dead Or is there someone else instead |

It could have been a brilliant career
Painting lines in a school that was too well known Painting lines with a friend that had gone before She challenged everyone to a fight But the prefects all backed down And they ran her out of town Cause she drank and swore and spoke Out of turn, she was the village joke She had a stroke at the age of 24 It could have been a brilliant career Getting clients to finance her strategies Filling time in on Safeways on Saturday She wears the clothes of an emperor But her paintings are a sham And they`re going for a grand When the dealers come to view Do they ever see the real you? He had a stroke at the age of 24 It could have been a brilliant career Selling lies to the boys with the old Dansettes Pulling the wool, playing the fool, it`s no wonder that He is dribbling spit tonight And the one he sent away Was the only one who stayed With a spoon and a decent book And you can tell by the way she looks he is sorry and resigned As he wets himself for the final time |

I'm glad to see you
I had a funny dream You were wearing funny shoes You were going to a dance You wrer dressed like a punk but you are too young to remember Glad to see you I'm outside the house I'm not thinking well today I've got no energy I'm glad that you are waiting with me Tell me all about your day Breaking off is misery I see a wilderness for you and me Punctuated by philosophy And a wondering how things could've been I'm happy for you You've made it hard for me I counted on your company You are staying with your friends tonight I'm feeling sorry for myself I keep taking everything to be a sign I'm happy for you Now I konw this hurt is poison Too sharp to be bled I'm sitting on my empty bed On my empty bed At night the fever grows it's pounding pounding I'd rather be in Tokyo I'd rather listen to Thin Lizzy-oh Watch the sunday gang in Harajuku There's something wrong with me I'm a cuckoo Scary moment, lovin' every moment I was high from playig shows We lost singer to her clothes My trouble raised its ugly head I was revealed And I was home in bed I was a kid again Jesus told me, go after every coin like it was the last in the world And protect the wayward child But I'm a little lost sheep I need my Bo Peep I know I need my shepherd here tonight Breaking off is misery I see a wilderness for you and me Punctuated by philosophy And a wondring how things could've been I'd like to see you But really I should stay away And let you settle down I've got no claims to your crown I was the boss of you And I loved you You konw I loved you It's all over now I was there for you When you are lonely I was there when you were bad I was there when you were sad Now it's my time of need I'm thinking, do I have to plead to get you by my side?

Judy wrote the saddest song
She showed it to a boy in school today Judy, where did you go wrong? You used to make me smile when I was down Judy was a teenage rebel She did it with a boy when she was young She gave herself to books and learning She gave herself to being number one Judy, I don't know you if you're gonna show me everything Judy, I don't know you if you're gonna show me everything Judy got a book at school She went under the cover with her torch She fell asleep till it was morning She dreamt about the girl who stole a horse Judy never felt so good except when she was sleeping Judy never felt so good except when she was sleeping Judy, let's go for a walk We can kiss and whatever you want But you will be disappointed You will asleep with ants in your pants Judy, you're just trying to find and keep the dream of horses And the song she wrote was Judy and the Dream of Horses Dream of Horses You dream of horses The best looking boys are taken The best looking boys are staying inside So Judy, where does that leave you? Walking the street from morning to night With a star upon your shoulder lighting up the path that you walk With a parrot on your shoulder, saying everything when you talk If you're ever feeling blue Then write another song about your dream of horses Write a song about your dream of horses Call it Judy And The Dream Of Horses Call it Judy And The Dream Of Horses You dream of horses |

When the music stops Take a tip from me, don't go through the park When you're on your own, it's a long walk home If they follow you Don't look back Like Dylan in the movies On your own If they follow you It's not your money that they're after boy it's you Pure easy listening, settle down On the pillow soft when they've all gone home You can concentrate on the ones you love You can concentrate, hey, now they've gone If they follow you Don't look back Like Dylan in the movies On your own If they follow you It's not your money that they're after boy it's you Yeah you're worth the trouble and you're worth the pain And you're worth the worry, I would do the same If we all went back to another time I will love you over I will love you If they follow you Don't look back Like Dylan in the movies On your own If they follow you Tenderly you turn the light off in your room |

Anthony, bullied at school Get your own back, now you are cool Or are you scared? Bunking off though you’re a toff It’s all gone wrong again, you’ve got double maths And the teacher’s got no control so The boys will run riot, you will stay quiet Or you will die Tony at the back of the gym Smoke another one, your chances are slim ‘Cos here they come again And they got you on the ground Tasting blood again, at least it’s your own When will you realise that it never pays To be smarter than teachers Smarter than most boys? Shut your mouth, start kicking the football Bang on the teeth, you’re off for a week boy You may as well take it in the guts - it can’t get worse Take it in the guts - it can’t get worse that this You’ll soon be old enough to leave them And without a notion of a care You’ll lift two fingers in the air to linger there Tony, you’re a bit of a mess Melted Toblerone under your dress And if the boys could see you they would pass you right bye Blue mascara running over your eye When will you realise that it never pays To be smarter than teachers Smarter than most boys? Shut your mouth, start kicking the football Bang on the teeth, you’re off for a week boy They call you Lord Anthony But hey - it could be worse than Lord Anthony, but hey - it could be worse than Lord Anthony, but hey - it kind of suits you anyway You’ll soon be old enough to leave them And without a notion of a care You’ll lift two fingers in the air to linger there |

Lovesick on a sunny afternoon
You are tired of stopping in You are waiting for the time Mayfly, woken up when skys are clear I don't mind you coming near Keep me company till she comes again You are the one who's privy to I am the one who's making do Because you saw him in the park Because you saw him at the bridges with the people in the park Cana was the start of something big You were there in the beginning You were there to see him play Mayfly, woken up when sky's are blue I don't mind the sight of you Keep me company till she comes around You are the one who's privy to I am the one who's making do Because you saw him at the celebrations standing at the side He had the moves to save the day But you would love him anyway Lovesick, it came back upon yourself You are the girl left on the shelf You are incapable of playing the fool Longing…so what's different today? You sent the boys and girls away You are concerned with matters lofty But puzzled so it makes you sick Your diary's looking like a bible with it's verses lost in time And lost in meaning for the people who surround you It's a crying shame You know it's a crying shame |

Get on the same train and he wants to talk to me Me and the Major could become close friends cause we Get on the same train and he wants to talk But there is too much history, too much biography between us Me and the Major don't see eye to eye on a Number of things, he'll take a guy like me and then Me and the Major don't see eye to eye on a Number of things, he'll take a guy like me And put him in the army Cause the Queen's own army makes a man of you But he doesn't understand and he doesn't try He knows there's something missing and he knows it's you and I We're the younger generation, we grew up fast All the others did drugs They're taking it out on us They're taking it out on us Me and the Major are from different worlds, but if I get stuck in the lift it's always with a toff Me and the Major are from different worlds, but if I get stuck in the lift it's always with a man Of noble standing who looks down on me like I was never born I think the Major's going quite insane, he goes Along the pavement and comes back again, oh yeah I think the Major's going quite insane, he goes Along the pavement and comes back again Like he is on parade, and he is on parade At least he thinks so Now he is swapping his tent for a sheltered home He doesn't have a family, he is living alone He remembers all the punks and the hippies too And he remembers Roxy Music in seventy-two He doesn't understand and he doesn't try He knows there's something missing and he knows it's you and I We're the younger generation, we grew up fast All the others did drugs They're taking it out on us They're taking it out on us They're taking it out on us I want a dance, I want a drink of whisky so I Forget the Major and go up the town Because the snow is falling |

Nice day for a sulk
The girl smells of milk Her horsey teeth explode around us And we run for cover she found us In the cheapo bar with a bag of chips Nice day for a mood The forecast is good The kids are melting in the doorway Keep the gang together There's no way will you ever be misunderstood by me Nice day for a jam The Fall, Manfred Mann Dance party, summer lasts forever When the band's together and Bobby Drank too much and fell in the Clyde |

Elope with me Miss Private and we’ll sail around the world
I will be your Ferdinand and you my wayward girl How many nights of talking in hotel rooms can you take? How many nights of limping round on pagan holidays? Oh elope with me in private and we’ll set something ablaze A trail for the devil to erase San Francisco’s calling us, the Giants and Mets will play Piazza, New York catcher, are you straight or are you gay? We hung about the stadium, we’ve got no place to stay We hung about the tenderloin and tenderly you tell About the saddest ending of a book you ever had to read The statue’s crying too and well he may I love you I’ve a drowning grip on your adoring face I love you my responsibility has found a place Beside you and strong warnings in the guise of gentle words Come wave upon me from the wider family net absurd “You’ll take care of her, I know it, you will do a better job” Maybe, but not what she deserves Elope with me Miss Private and we’ll drink ourselves awake We’ll taste the coffee houses and award certificates A privy seal to keep the feel of 1960 style We’ll comment on the decor and we’ll help the passer by And at dusk when work is over we’ll continue the debate In a borrowed bedroom virginal and spare The catcher hits for .318 and catches every day The pitcher puts religion first and rests on holidays He goes into cathedrals and lies prostrate on the floor He knows the drink affects his speed he’s praying for a doorway Back into the life he wants and the confession of the bench Life outside the diamond is a wrench I wish that you were here with me to pass the dull weekend I know it wouldn’t come to love, my heroine pretend A lady stepping from the songs we love until this day You’d settle for an epitaph like “Walk Away, Renee” The sun upon the roof in winter will draw you out like a flower Meet you at the statue in an hour Meet you at the statue in an hour |

Like a fresh manifestation of an old phenomenon A breeze whips through the trees The rustling leaves and branches bend together they’re cued to sway forever by the forces of the Lord’s choreography Just for a second the combination of sights, sounds around him sends him hurtling back to the mirror of all of his teenager thoughts and fears He passes big houses and family cars they saddled the horses in cobblestone yards He catches the moon looking down from the stars Just like it’s done for years and years Perpetual feeling in the grown up world that’s all around him that there’s secrets that could be revealed with knowledge and philosophy And “Oh to be dumb, Oh to be smart” He might be nursing a broken heart but feeling this way he’s just playing a part that’s been around for centuries I wandered all night, I wondered all night about you I’ve been here for years just wandering around the neighbourhood |

I only want to be the centre of your attention For long enough to show you I'm worth the trouble that you take I want to see the way that you portray A boy who's going to try to change his life today... I want to see the way that you portray A boy who maybe doesn't have too much to say And you can draw your own conclusions But you'll find I'm not a fake You can turn away from me but there's nothing that'll keep me here you know And you'll never be the city guy Any more than I'll be hosting The Scooby Show |

We lay on the bed there
Kissing just for practice Could we please be objective? Cause the other boys are queuing up behind us A hand over my mouth A hand over the window Well, if I remain passive and you just want to cuddle Then we should be ok, and we won't get into trouble Cause we're seeing other people At least that's what we say we are doing How are you feeling? I don't think you can be dealing With the situation very well You take a lover for a dirty weekend, that's ok But when it's over You are looking at the working week in the eyes of a gigolo You're kissing your elbow You're kissing your reflection And you can't understand why all the other boys are going for the New, tall, elegant rich kids I'll admit it is a bitch, kid But if they don't see the quality then it is apparent that You're going to have to change Or you're going to have to go with girls You might be better off At least they know what they're doing We lay on the bed there Kissing just for practice Could we please be objective? Cause the other boys are queuing up behind us A hand over my mouth A hand over the window Well, if I remain passive and you just want to cuddle Then we should be ok, and we won't get into trouble Cause we're seeing other people At least that's what we say we are doing |

from Belle & Sebastian - Boy With The Arab Strap (1998)
And the moment will come when composure returns
Put a face on the world, turn your back to the wall And you walk twenty yards with your head in the air Down the Liberty Hill, where the fashion brigade Look with curious eyes on your raggedy way And for once in your life you have nothing to say And could this be the time when somebody will come To say, Look at yourself, you're not much use to anyone Take a walk in the park, take a valium pill Read the letter you got from the memory girl But it takes more than this to make sense of the day Yeah it takes more than milk to get rid of the taste And you trusted to this, and you trusted to that And when you saw it all come, it was waving the flag Of the United States of Calamity, hey! After all that you've done boy, Im sure you're going to pay In the morning you come to the ladies salon To get all fitted out for The Paperback Throne But the people are living far away from the place Where you wanted to help, it's a bit of a waste And the puzzle will last till somebody will say There's a lot to be done while your head is still young If you put down your pen, leave your worries behind Then the moment will come, and the memory will shine Now the trouble is over, everybody got paid Everybody is happy, they are glad that they came Then you go to the place where you've finally found You can look at yourself sleep the clock around |
