I shouldn't have driven |
|
You shouldn't have driven - but we got there |
|
Had a good time, so we left the car |
|
And the cabby was from a war-zone |
|
We were glad he was driving us home |
|
I was gladder of some movement |
|
You took it on, you took it on board |
|
I said "Thank you, thank you, for loving me at my worst" |
|
If this isn't love it's very close |
|
Can you hear the world is waking up? |
|
Can we be crazy for a few more years? |
|
Have I got them in me? |
|
Bought myself one of those keyboard axes |
|
Wanted to get out and dance away from the piano |
|
That could have been the beginning of the end |
|
If I wasn't already in the middle |
|
The crowd was confused - and then they cheered |
|
My career it was back on track |
|
I was relieved, full of love for the people |
|
I said "Thank you, each and every one of you, For loving me at my worst" |
|
If this isn't love it's very close |
|
Can you hear the world is waking up? |
|
Can we be crazy for a few more years? |
|
Have I got them in me? |
|
All you bright and middle-aged things |
|
Attending your sons and daughters |
|
Spare a thought for me out here with the kids |
|
To hell with your bricks and mortar |
|
It's you and me and the |
|
Holy Ghost |
|
On the road to dawn heading down the coast |
|
We're better sorry than safe when you count the cost |
|
Mmm sorry than safe when you count the cost |
|
There's a bar out east called |
|
Scrum Only red wine and the finest of cigars |
|
And if we leave now we'll still get in |
|
You can find yourself a young consort |
|
Writers of unpopular fiction are trying to drink more |
|
Than bikies who've all left their beards at the door |
|
You'll drink all the wine and smoke your cigar |
|
And say "Thank you, thank you, for loving me at my worst" |
|
If this isn't love it's very close |
|
Can you hear the world is waking up? |
|
Can we be crazy for a few more years? |
|
Have I got them in me? |
