Lyrics

[00:02.51] Make a new cult every day to suit your affairs
[00:10.64] Kissing girls in English, at the back of the stairs
[00:19.32] You're a honey, with a following of innocent boys
[00:24.24] They never know it
[00:25.55] Because you never show it
[00:27.42] You always get your way
[00:32.33] They never know it
[00:33.79] Because you never show it
[00:35.88] You always get your way
[00:38.50]
[00:41.88] Have you and her been taking pictures of your obsessions?
[00:50.28] Because I met a boy who went through one of your sessions
[00:58.74] In his blue velour and silk
[01:01.38] You liberated
[01:02.97] A boy I never rated
[01:04.85] And now he's throwing discus
[01:07.18] For Liverpool and Widnes
[01:11.58] You liberated
[01:13.09] A boy I never rated
[01:15.19] And now he's doing business
[01:18.35]
[01:21.50] The stars of track and field, you are
[01:25.09] The stars of track and field, you are
[01:28.77] The stars of track and field are beautiful people
[01:34.47]
[01:37.10] Could I write a piece about you now that you've made it?
[01:44.87] About the hours spent, the emptiness in your training
[01:53.19] You only did it so that you could wear
[01:57.99] Your terry underwear
[01:59.59] And feel the city air
[02:01.57] Run past your body
[02:05.63] Your terry underwear
[02:07.54] And feel the city air
[02:09.62] Run past your body
[02:14.78]
[02:15.14] Could I write a requiem for you when you're dead?
[02:22.31] "She had the moves, she had the speed, it went to her head"
[02:29.98] She never needed anyone to get her round the track
[02:34.47] But when she's on her back
[02:36.35] She had the knowledge
[02:38.50] To get her into college
[02:42.23] But when she's on her back
[02:43.92] She had the knowledge
[02:45.83] To get her into college
[02:49.42]
[02:51.46] The stars of track and field, you are
[02:54.94] The stars of track and field, you are
[02:58.51] The stars of track and field are beautiful people
[03:06.26] The stars of track and field, you are
[03:09.78] The stars of track and field, you are
[03:13.21] The stars of track and field are beautiful people
[03:19.10]
[03:56.81] The stars of track and field, you are
[04:00.13] The stars of track and field, you are
[04:03.67] The stars of track and field are beautiful people
[04:11.27] The stars of track and field, you are
[04:14.68] The stars of track and field, you are
[04:18.02] The stars of track and field are beautiful people
[04:25.56] The stars of track and field, you are
[04:28.91] The stars of track and field, you are
[04:32.57] The stars of track and field are beautiful people
[04:38.50]
