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 the lemons and limes
The pain and the 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 sense 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 the lemons and limes
The pain and the pleasure and the church bells softly chime…

And birds might fall from black skies
And bullies might give you black eyes
And buses might skid on black ice
But to me it’s 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
Try to tell the difference ‘tween the goods and crimes,
Dirt or 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 the lemons and limes
The pain and the pleasure and the church bells softly chime…
