I shouldn’t be too bothered all the time
As I’ve got the Queen of Spain at my side
I shouldn’t be too bothered all the time
As I’ve got the Queen of Spain at my side

A little time to live
A few people to love
Floral clocks never stop ticking
They never stop growing

But the dog, it keeps on barking in the tube
Despite the bomb in his stomach
And the girl, she’s still crying in the bus I try to sympathize
But I don’t mind
I don’t really mind I’ve already wasted so much time

A little time to share
A few people to leave
Floral clocks never stop ticking
They never stop glowing

Left this plastic bag filled with my liver and my lungs
Behind a door that’s just been closed
Douglas Fir might be working late at night
Hope my friend’s very fine

As much as I
I don’t really mind
We’ve already wasted so much time

Feel young and free
When the sun shines above me
The sounds of the city fill my heart with joy and beauty
Fountains of champagne to celebrate the next day
My generation’s full of optimism
What does it take?
What does it take to be here today?

Tell me what's beyond the curtain
Made of water, made of air
And the kite is so red
But it does not fly
Rolling by
On the beach
With the three of us
Tell me what's beyond the curtain
Made of water, made of ice
And the kite is so red
But it does not fly
Passing by
On the beach
With the three of us
Running with the wind
The hands on the clock
Are frozen
Though the sun keeps shining

Like a sunny winter saturday
Like a sunny winter saturday
Like a sunny winter Saturday
We were glowing on this sunny Saturday

Worship me, despise me
Is this my destiny?
Or just the way I fucked up my life?
Have you ever imagined we’d split up this way?

So bitterly.
Of course I have
My nightmare’s come true.

Worship me, despise me
Is this my destiny?
Or just the way I fucked up my life?
Have you ever imagined we’d split up this way?

So bitterly.
Of course I have
My nightmare’s come true.

Dead souls coming in from a long lost future.
Dead souls wandering through the ages back and forth.

We're about to
come
Now the wet dream's over
Reality bites
Sometimes i'm
sure you like the way
I sing Van Dyke Parks
Tonight

The
shape of things to come
Well i know it's hard for you to hear
that
Our friendship's gonna die
If you behave like that and
despise the things we said
Tonight

And the streets are
filled with love
If you really take a look
Sit back, relax &
cool it down
The time is right
She's waiting there

« I
know where you're coming from »
Isn't it the best way to
make people
Feel uncomfortable ?
Sometimes i'm sure you liked
the way
I overcame my stage fright

And the streets are
filled with love
If you take a second look
Sit back, relax,
just let it shine
Within your mind
She's waiting there

Don't wanna spend the day
Don't wanna spend my Sunday
Longing for the next train to crash
Don't wanna spend my life, don't wanna spend my life
Waiting for the weekend to get mad
Why d'you so discreetly look at your watch ?
Twice a year, that's not enough, that's not fair, that's pretty rough
Make up your mind

I don't wanna stay
Just need a helping hand
That would make my day
So please don't let me stay

So spread, make up your mind
We're running late
Spread, make up your mind
We can't afford the time to search for another wreck
So spread and dive, maybe find
Another mate of mine
