Senses Working Overtime Lyrics

Hey, hey, the clouds are away 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 a lemon and a lime Pain and 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 one's 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
[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/senses-working-overtime-lyrics-xtc.html ] 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 a lemon and a lime Pain and 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 Trying to tell the difference 'tween the goods and grime Turds 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 a lemon and a lime Pain and pleasure and the church bells softly chime
