we made a splash on the screen but we're just a flash in the pan so come on baby and take my hand and we'll laugh so hard about how we hardly matter to anyone and anyone is welcome to join in, laugh it up laugh it up its real funny, so funny i forgot how to laugh at it, but i'm laughing now cos i finally remembered how

we were making a music so mad to be made that a sudden stop was the only way to save us from shucking all the songs that we sand about everything, we started to sing about nothing but everything and everything that everything isn't, and everything is what it was and it's been and it will be again someday some way and somehow, i'm thinking about it now cos i finally remembered how.

we could be doctors of disco if we moved to San Francisco and got it goin in a way it'd not been, you say miracles don't grow on trees well look at these that i picked for you without you having to ask me to i spent some time and i signed a dotted line waiting for the bus to take me one more time to that town where the lost feel found on the dirty grounds that they're around and they've a right to be around

the alarm's goin off i kept hittin snooze cos i couldn't bear to leave those dreams that were keepin me layin in bed waiting there for a hope not seen, i didn't care if i slept away my whole life as long as you were there, but you've not been you such a long time, i gotta get up, walk around, find a way to be wide awake.

we were painfully shy but believing the lie that we shouldn't be, we tried so hard to speak up but our voices ignored, oh we angrily swore that we would keep our mouths shut forevermore, well didn't you get mine open a little while, i wish you still did, but i guess you still do, cos i'm thinking of saying all this to you, but it wouldn't do to bother you

we were sweet sacks of red wine eating chocolate at bed time till the money went and away i got sent to that factory where they got jobs to spare so menial, well i do declare that i don't want no memorial for the little i done, oh it sure was fun while it lasted and you'll be the last one i let leave so easily because now i see that i was so arrogant about that

we made a splash on the screen but we're etc.
