Image Blown out |
People moving about the town upside down, you know why |
Little bits of coloured glass in the sky |
Children pushing mummy down to the park in a pram |
Look out — the pavement’s changing to jam |
See them running |
Now where are they going to |
To follow them, leads you nowhere |
Shout to them quickly but no one can hear you |
All they can do is to stare |
Your bowler hats are turning green |
Your city suits are coloured cream |
You, you changed my life |
You made it misery, sadness reigns alone |
Wonder why you do this to me |
When I’ve tried so hard for you |
People talking to the man who’s digging a hole in his mind |
He’s no need to worry, he’s deaf and blind |
See the dustman doing his round in a Rolls made of glass |
He’s gained everything because he’s got class |
Friends are leaving me |
When I did everything just as they used to behave |
Trying to copy them |
Losing my real self, floating away in a cloud |
Your minds have blown you out of step |
The rules you taught, you never kept |
You, you who changed my life |
You made it misery, sadness reigns alone |
Wonder why you do this to me |
When I’ve tried so hard for you |
