Maybe one day, when I’m famous we could go out
And write the World down like it really was
Everything just like it happened
And make them take our word for it
Everybody wants to be your average
Charismatic leader, moral bottom feeder
Stick it in your hand, son
Smarter than the average bear
You want to keep it there, you want to keep it there
It’s in the sand
Buried up above its head there
Holidays in Red Square. Better left for dead there
Stick it to the Man
But you’re better than your average Joe
Because you just won’t show, because you just won’t show, because you can
Tell a lie to take an eye
Long-lost angel locked inside
Better off than token of a wasted life
So bye-bye Apple Pie High
Maybe one day, when I’m famous we could go out
And write the World down like it really was
Everything just like it happened
And make them take our word for it
Oh when I’m famous we could go out
And write the World down like it really was
Everything just like it happened, yeh
And make them take our word for it
Every mission has to have a low rent
Parasitic preacher, before it can reach you
Standing at the back, Dad
Sorry couldn’t shine more bright
I couldn’t flee or fight, I couldn’t stand the sight, I couldn’t land
Tell a lie to take an eye
Long-lost angel locked inside
Better off than token of a wasted life
So bye-bye Apple Pie High
Maybe one day, when I’m famous we could go out
And write the World down like it really was
Everything just like it happened
And make them take our word for it
Oh when I’m famous we could go out
And write the World down like it really was
Everything just like it happened, yeh
And make them take our word for it

And now she’s walking in my house, a cat and mouse
To take the magic from out of my mouth
And now she’s walking in my room, a brand new broom
To sweep the music from out of the tune
In again and out again and up and down the line
Incredibly sunshine comes out
Innocence and arrogance that fall into the night
Incidentally darkness abounds
One more step to go, to walk across the line
And everybody knows that she’s coming up slow
Drink in the ambience of sin
The hero and the author of your crime begins
To wash out the silence from your mouth
The oxygen and orphan of your vice breathes out
And now she’s walking in my house
And now she’s creeping in my head, and where I bled
The ghost of conscience is waking my dead
And in the corner of my mind, she starts to find
The hands of reason begin to unwind
‘Turn to me’, she said to me, ‘and cover up the lies’
‘I’ll give you the World’ I replied
Carefully, eternally returning to the light
We bury the union tonight
One more step to go to walk across the line
And everybody knows that she’s coming up slow
Drink in the ambience of sin
The hero and the author of your crime begins
To wash out the silence from your mouth
The oxygen and orphan of your vice breathes out
And now she’s walking in my house

When I was young
I had to be putting me face in the sun
But now I’m old
I need to be holding me hands in the cold
So don’t paint me this way
This skin will not wash away
Put your hands in the snow
And pull out a white one
With my flesh coloured soul
Let’s hope it’s the right one
When you were me
You had to go sinking your face in the sea
But now it’s you
Your colours are turning to shades of deep blue
So don’t leave me to fade
The red, the green and the grey
Put your hands in the snow
And pull out a white one
With my flesh coloured soul
Let’s hope it’s the right one
Let’s hope it’s the right one
Let’s hope it’s the right one
When I was young
I had to be putting me face in the sun
Put your hands in the snow
And pull out a white one
With my flesh coloured soul
Let’s hope it’s the right one
Put your hands in the snow
And pull out a white one
With my flesh coloured soul
Let’s hope it’s the right one
