"Bang, the little drummer takes a solo, reaching his young hands all over traps and kettles and cymbals and foot-peddle
|
BOOM in a fantastic crash of sound a¢æ¡° but what will happen?"
|
|
The dance halls are dark now
|
The ballrooms are closed
|
No wax for my needle and I don't suppose
|
You'll be swinging by anytime soon
|
Singing that same so-so tune
|
Nobody's playing
|
No-one's been paid
|
The music's all stopped and
|
You never said you could
|
Wait from September to June
|
Singing that same so-so tune
|
While brothers are fighting and working to rule
|
Here's a tired, sentimental old song
|
It goes: 'Ooh, baby, baby
|
Treating me wrong'
|
We'll be back where we belong before long
|
(It's the beat of the heart)
|
(It's the beat of the heart)
|
(It's the beat of the heart)
|
(It's the beat of the heart)
|
(It's the beat of the heart)
|
|
While brothers are fighting and working to rule
|
Here's a tired, sentimental old song
|
It goes: 'Ooh, baby, baby
|
Treating me wrong'
|
We'll be back where we belong before long
|
I've heard all the stories
|
It's wild and it's new
|
Hot sounds in the city
|
But what can I do?
|
Might as well shoot for the moon
|
Singing that same so-so tune
|
Singing that same so-so tune
|
