(XTC; Andy Partridge)

|
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 lemon and lime
|
Pain and pleasure and the church bells softly chime
|
|
Hey, hey, night fights day
|
There's food for the thinkers and the innocents
|
All live slowly, all live slowly
|
My, my, the sky will cry
|
Jewels for the thirsty and the guilty ones
|
All die slowly, all die slowly
|
|
And all the world is biscuit shaped
|
Its 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 the lemon and lime
|
Pain and pleasure and the church bells gently 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 they're very, very beautiful, beautiful
|
|
And all the world is football shaped
|
Its 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 goods and crimes, drugs 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 the lemon and lime
|
Pain and pleasure and the church bells softly chime
|
