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

Thought i was light years ahead of themBut i was blind they were only milesLight years ahead of them, he must be right
I was only pretending to be just another wannabeA love supreme in flip flopsThere might be peacocks in disguiseYou’d better practice your passing shotsBeware of bishops dealing with their ups and downs
You were born in Christchurch babyListen to the bellsThey’re ringing again in your earsThey resound in the eveningThey resound when you’re youngThey’re sound in the morningThey resound when you’re getting old/get things done

A little time to liveA few people to loveFloral clocks never stop tickingThey never stop growing
But the dog, it keeps on barking in the tubeDespite the bomb in his stomachAnd the girl, she’s still crying in the bus I try to sympathizeBut I don’t mindI don’t really mind I’ve already wasted so much time
A little time to shareA few people to leaveFloral clocks never stop tickingThey never stop glowing
Left this plastic bag filled with my liver and my lungsBehind a door that’s just been closedDouglas Fir might be working late at nightHope my friend’s very fine
As much as II don’t really mindWe’ve already wasted so much time

Feel young and freeWhen the sun shines above meThe sounds of the city fill my heart with joy and beautyFountains of champagne to celebrate the next dayMy generation’s full of optimismWhat does it take?What does it take to be here today?

Tell me what's beyond the curtainMade of water, made of airAnd the kite is so redBut it does not flyRolling byOn the beachWith the three of usTell me what's beyond the curtainMade of water, made of iceAnd the kite is so redBut it does not flyPassing byOn the beachWith the three of usRunning with the windThe hands on the clockAre frozenThough the sun keeps shining
Like a sunny winter saturdayLike a sunny winter saturdayLike a sunny winter SaturdayWe were glowing on this sunny Saturday

Worship me, despise meIs 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 haveMy 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 tocomeNow the wet dream's overReality bitesSometimes i'msure you like the wayI sing Van Dyke ParksTonight
Theshape of things to comeWell i know it's hard for you to hearthatOur friendship's gonna dieIf you behave like that anddespise the things we saidTonight
And the streets arefilled with loveIf you really take a lookSit back, relax &cool it downThe time is rightShe's waiting there
« Iknow where you're coming from »Isn't it the best way tomake peopleFeel uncomfortable ?Sometimes i'm sure you likedthe wayI overcame my stage fright

And the streets arefilled with loveIf you take a second lookSit back, relax,just let it shineWithin your mindShe's waiting there

Don't wanna spend the dayDon't wanna spend my SundayLonging for the next train to crashDon't wanna spend my life, don't wanna spend my lifeWaiting for the weekend to get madWhy d'you so discreetly look at your watch ?Twice a year, that's not enough, that's not fair, that's pretty roughMake up your mind
I don't wanna stayJust need a helping handThat would make my daySo please don't let me stay
So spread, make up your mindWe're running lateSpread, make up your mindWe can't afford the time to search for another wreckSo spread and dive, maybe findAnother mate of mine
