|
Let's walk on by, this time, this time |
|
Let's keep it right, just like it used to be |
|
It's such a long and wasted ride |
|
When you're on your own, when you're all alone |
|
I throw a word in for the real men |
|
Hey driver man, hey cardboard man |
|
On a cardboard scene you know it's never make-believe |
|
Now, do you believe in me? |
|
And freedom's only what they strip away from you |
|
You fight back |
|
But what you gain is nothing like it |
|
(Chorus) |
|
Let's walk on by |
|
It's a mellow song and I mean it well |
|
So don't you trample me down! |
|
Cause it took a lot of nerve |
|
For me to try and come across |
|
Let's do it, let's do it right |
|
I tried, I tried so hard I could only fail |
|
Let's do it, let's do it right |
|
Right now, right now |
|
And don't you ever walk away from me |
|
I'm gonna need you round for the rebound |
|
I search myself for sheets of paper |
|
Some little stain, some little stain |
|
And this is all conclusive evidence |
|
Everybody rise, I rest my case |
|
(Chorus) |
|
Right now, right now |
|
I find it hard being strong these days |
|
I find it very hard, hard |
|
And even harder in the night-time |
|
When all these clouds come down |
|
I find I'm very, very, hard to define |
|
I could not be electric animal's, front-man |
|
All distorted, all noise |
|
And this is never, ever, my familiar voice |
|
(Chorus) |
