1
Hey, hey,
2
The clouds are whey.
3
There's straw for the donkeys,
4
And the innocents can all sleep safely,
5
All sleep safely.
6
My, my,
7
Sun is pie.
8
There's fodder for the cannons,
9
And the guilty ones can all sleep safely,
10
All sleep safely.
11
And all the world is football-shaped
12
It's just for me to kick in space
13
And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste
14
And I've got one, two, three, four, five
15
Senses working overtime
16
Trying to take this all in.
17
I've got one, two, three, four, five
18
Senses working overtime
19
Trying to taste the difference
20
'Tween a lemon and a lime
21
Pain and the pleasure
22
And the church bells softly chime.
23
Hey hey,
24
Night fights day.
25
There's food for the thinkers,
26
And the innocents can all live slowly,
27
All live slowly.
28
My, my,
29
The sky will cry
30
Jewels for the thirsty,
31
And the guilty one's can all die slowly ,
32
All die slowly.
33
And all the world is biscuit-shaped,
34
It's just for me to feed my face,
35
And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste,
36
And I've got one, two, three, four, five,
37
Senses working overtime
38
Trying to take this all in.
39
I've got one, two, three, four, five,
40
Senses working overtime
41
Trying to taste the difference,
42
'Tween a lemon and a lime,
43
Pain and the pleasure,
44
And the church bells softly chime,
45
And birds might fall from black skies,
46
And bullies might give you black eyes,
47
And busses might skid on black ice,
48
But to me they're very, very beautiful
49
(England's glory!)
50
Beautiful
51
(A striking beauty!)
52
And all the world is football-shaped,
53
It's just for me to kick in space,
54
And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste,
55
And I've got one, two, three, four, five,
56
Senses working overtime
57
Trying to take this all in
58
I've got one, two, three, four, five
59
Senses working overtime
60
Trying to tell the difference
61
'Tween the goods and grime
62
Turds and treasure
63
And there's one, two, three, four, five
64
Senses working overtime
65
Trying to take this all in
66
I've got one, two, three, four, five
67
Senses working overtime
68
Trying to taste the difference
69
'Tween a lemon and a lime
70
Pain and the pleasure,
71
And the church bells softly chime.
