I decree today that life
|
Is simply taking and not giving
|
England is mine and it owes me a living
|
Ask me why, and I'll spit in your eye
|
Oh, ask me why, and I'll spit in your eye
|
But we cannot cling to the old dreams anymore
|
No, we cannot cling to those dreams
|
|
Does the body rule the mind
|
Or does the mind rule the body ?
|
I dunno...
|
|
|
Under the iron bridge we kissed
|
And although I ended up with sore lips
|
It just wasn't like the old days anymore
|
No, it wasn't like those days
|
Am I still ill ?
|
Oh ...
|
Am I still ill ?
|
Oh ...
|
|
|
Does the body rule the mind
|
Or does the mind rule the body ?
|
I dunno...
|
|
|
Ask me why, and I'll die
|
Oh, ask me why, and I'll die
|
And if you must, go to work - tomorrow
|
Well, if I were you I really wouldn't bother
|
For there are brighter sides to life
|
And I should know, because I've seen them
|
But not often ...
|
Under the iron bridge we kissed
|
And although I ended up with sore lips
|
It just wasn't like the old days anymore
|
No, it wasn't like those days
|
Am I still ill ?
|
Oh ...
|
Oh, am I still ill ?
|
Oh ...
|
