My feet were in London My head in the clouds And I'm constantly moving With the holiday crowds This happy future Is a thing of the past I watch the day ending I watch shadows pass the city's Arriving I begin to feel fine Then the city sits down And I go out of my mind I've ended up taking The longest way home I'm cool but I'm all alone
Hey now I'm out the door like a cat Across the tracks And never once looking back Hey now There's nothing new in that Not everybody knows The good from the bad
Enough for one day now The edge of the world Look at the frontpage And what it did to the girl Her shit was together Her feet on the ground Now it's sounding like zippers As the dryer goes round To the man with the most Whose face never changes Enough for one day now Yeah - I'm cool
Hey now I'm out the door like a cat Across the tracks And never once looking back Hey now There's nothing new in that Not everybody knows The good from the bad hey hey Just hear what I say I take the blame But not the pain pain pain
