originally performed by Oysterband
3
I am the fountain of affection
4
I'm the instrument of joy
5
And to keep the good times rolling
6
I'm the boy, I'm the boy,
7
You know the world could be our oyster,
8
If you just put your trust in me,
9
'Cause we'll keep the good times rollin'
10
Wait and see, wait and see ... oh wait and see!
11
There's exaltations, a sweet disintegrations
12
There's a few discolourations, then it comes along
13
You know up is what he chooses, the kisses and the bruises
14
There ain't nothing he refuses, then it comes along
15
It comes along, and I am lifted, I am lifted, I am lifted!
16
CHORUS:
17
When I'm up I can't get down
18
Can't get down, can't get level
19
When I'm up I can't get down
20
Get my feet back on the ground
21
When I'm up I can't get down
22
Can't get down, can't get level
23
When I'm up I can't get down
24
Get my feet back on the ground
25
He just needs, something to bind him
26
Something to wind him up
27
It won't take long to find him
28
When it comes on strong.
29
Black skies are grinning, street lights are spinning
30
The night is just beginning, and then it comes on strong
31
It comes on strong, and I am lifted, I am lifted, I am lifted!
32
CHORUS
33
Oh it comes on strong, and I am lifted.
34
It comes on strong, and I am lifted.
35
I am lifted, I am lifted!
36
CHORUS
37
Oh, I can't get down
38
Oh no, no, no, no, no, I can't get down
39
Oh-oh-oh I can't get down
