Theatre Of The Absurd |
| My tea turned seven shades darker |
| As I sit 'n' write these words |
| And London’s gettin' paler |
| In my theatre of the absurd |
| You figured for an evening |
| And you made it all worthwile |
| It’s seldom people have a job |
| And even rarer that I smile |
| Play me some, play me some |
| Play me Brixton power |
| Teach your children to be them |
| And never ever ours |
| Play me some, play me some |
| Play me Brixton power |
| Someone took the park away |
| But they left a lonely flower |
| And if your songs be classics |
| Throw them to the hurd |
| Truth is where they came from |
| And not this theatre of the absurd |
| Some say you wanted to play for me |
| But it’s only what you’ve heard |
| That made you want to capture me |
| In your theatre of the absurd |
| It was not me, I said myself |
| And you must do so, too |
| I hope you have the strength to stay |
| When I’ll be watchin' you |
| So baby |
| Play me some, play me some |
| Play me Brixton power |
| Teach your children to be them |
| And never ever ours |
| Play me some, play me some |
| Play me Brixton power |
| Someone took the park away |
| But they left a lonely flower |
| Oh when I got here back home tonight |
| Something within me stirred |
| Oh it must have been a different kind of play |
| That touched my theatre of the absurd |
| Now I’ll be on my way alone |
| But an interesting thing occurred |
| See nobody ever shared too much |
| In my theatre of the absurd |
| And there I was back in London |
| Thought about history |
| It was just like being in school again |
| But I felt something movin' in me |
| Hearin' just a bit of the future |
| Oh it’s comin' and it’s still blurred |
| And that’s the only thing worth living for |
| In my theatre of the absurd |
| Come on |
| Play me some, play me some |
| Play me Brixton power |
| Teach your children to be them |
| And never ever ours |
| Oh play me some, play me some |
| Play me Brixton power |
| Someone took the park away |
| But they left a lonely flower |
| (Beautiful) |
| Play me some, play me some |
| Play me Brixton power |
| Play me some, play me some |
| Play me Brixton power |
| (John, come on) |
| Play me some, play me some |
| Play me Brixton power |
| Oh, play me some, (Come on, Eric) play me some |
| Play me Brixton power |
| Oh, play me some, play me some |
| Play me Brixton power |
