Stretch out and Wait |
All the lies that you make up |
What’s at the back of your mind? |
Oh, your face I can see and it’s desperately kind |
But what’s at the back of your mind? |
Two icy-cold hands conducting the way |
It’s the Eskimo blood in my veins |
Amid concrete and clay and general decay |
Nature must still find a way |
So, ignore all the codes of the day |
Let your juvenile impulses sway |
This way and that way, this way, that way |
God, how sex implores you |
To let yourself lose yourself |
Stretch out and wait, stretch out and wait |
Let your puny body lie down, lie down |
As we lie, you say |
As we lie, you say |
Stretch out |
Stretch out and wait, stretch out and wait |
Let your puny body lie down, lie down |
As we lie, you say |
Will the world end in the night time? |
I really don’t know |
Or will the world end in the day time? |
I really don’t know |
And is there any point ever having children? |
Oh, I don’t know |
All I do know is we’re here and it’s now |
So, stretch out and wait, stretch out and wait |
There is no debate, no debate, no debate |
How can you consciously contemplate |
When there’s no debate, no debate? |
Stretch out and wait |
Stretch out and wait |
Stretch out and wait |
Wait |
Wait |
Wait |
Wait, oh |
