Senses Working Overtime |
| Hey, hey, the clouds are whey |
| There’s straw for the donkeys |
| And the innocents can all sleep safely |
| All sleep safely |
| My, my, sun is pie |
| There’s fodder for the cannons |
| And the guilty ones can all sleep safely |
| All sleep safely |
| And all the world is football-shaped |
| It’s just for me to kick in space |
| And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste |
| And I’ve got one, two, three, four, five |
| Senses working overtime |
| Trying to take this all in |
| I’ve got one, two, three, four, five |
| Senses working overtime |
| Trying to taste the difference 'tween a lemon and a lime |
| Pain and pleasure, and the church bells softly chime |
| Hey, hey, night fights day |
| There’s food for the thinkers |
| And the innocents can all live slowly |
| All live slowly |
| My, my, the sky will cry |
| Jewels for the thirsty |
| And the guilty ones can all die slowly |
| All die slowly |
| And all the world is biscuit-shaped |
| It’s just for me to feed my face |
| And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste |
| And I’ve got one, two, three, four, five |
| Senses working overtime |
| Trying to take this all in |
| I’ve got one, two, three, four, five |
| Senses working overtime |
| Trying to taste the difference 'tween a lemon and a lime |
| Pain and pleasure, and the church bells softly chime |
| And birds might fall from black skies (Whoo-whoo) |
| And bullies might give you black eyes (Whoo-whoo) |
| And buses might skid on black ice (Whoo-whoo) |
| But to me they’re very, very beautiful (England's glory) |
| Beautiful (A striking beauty) |
| And all the world is football-shaped |
| It’s just for me to kick in space |
| And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste |
| And I’ve got one, two, three, four, five |
| Senses working overtime |
| Trying to take this all in |
| I’ve got one, two, three, four, five |
| Senses working overtime |
| Trying to tell the difference 'tween the goods and crimes |
| Dirt and treasure |
| And there’s one, two, three, four, five |
| Senses working overtime |
| Trying to take this all in |
| I’ve got one, two, three, four, five |
| Senses working overtime |
| Trying to taste the difference 'tween a lemon and a lime |
| Pain and pleasure, and the church bells softly chime |
