I get out of bed at half past ten | |
Phone up a friend, who's a party animal | |
Turn on the news and drink some tea | |
Maybe if you're with me we'll do some shopping | |
One day I'll read, or learn to drive a car | |
If you pass the test, you can beat the rest | |
But I don't like to compete, or talk street, street, street | |
I can pick up the best from the party animal | |
I could leave you, say goodbye | |
Or I could love you, if I try | |
And I could | |
And left to my own devices, I probably would | |
Pick up a brochure about the sun | |
Learn to ignore what the photographer saw | |
I was always told that you should join a club | |
Stick with the gang, if you want to belong | |
I was a lonely boy, no strength, no joy | |
In a world of my own at the back of the garden | |
I didn't want to compete, or play out on the street | |
For in a secret life I was a round head general | |
I could leave you, say goodbye | |
Or I could love you, if I try | |
And I could | |
And left to my own devices, I probably would | |
Left to my own devices, I probably would | |
Oh, I would | |
I was faced with a choice at a difficult age | |
Would I write a book? Or should I take to the stage? | |
But in the back of my head I heard distant feet | |
Che Guevara and De‚bussy to a disco beat | |
It's not a crime when you look the way you do | |
The way I like to picture you | |
When I get home, it's late at night | |
I pour a drink and watch the fight | |
Turn off the TV, look at a book | |
Pick up the phone, fix some food | |
Maybe I'll sit up all night and day | |
Waiting for the minute I hear you say | |
I could leave you, say goodbye | |
Or I could love you, if I try | |
And I could | |
And left to my own devices, I probably would | |
Come on, baby, say goodbye | |
Or I could love you, if I try | |
And I could | |
And left to my own devices, I probably would | |
Left to my own devices, I probably would | |
(Come on baby) | |
Left to my own devices, I probably would |
I get out of bed at half past ten | |
Phone up a friend, who' s a party animal | |
Turn on the news and drink some tea | |
Maybe if you' re with me we' ll do some shopping | |
One day I' ll read, or learn to drive a car | |
If you pass the test, you can beat the rest | |
But I don' t like to compete, or talk street, street, street | |
I can pick up the best from the party animal | |
I could leave you, say goodbye | |
Or I could love you, if I try | |
