Senses Working Overtime

[Intro] [Verse 1 : Andy Partridge] Hey, hey, the clouds are whey 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 [Pre-Chorus 1] And all the world is football-shaped It's just for me to kick in space And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste [Chorus 1] 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 [Verse 2] 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 ones can all die slowly All die slowly [Pre-Chorus 2] And all the world is biscuit-shaped It's just for me to feed my face And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste [Chorus 1] [Bridge] And birds might fall from black skies (Whoo-whoo) And bullies might give you black eyes (Whoo-whoo) And buses might skid on black ice (Whoo-whoo) But to me they're very, very beautiful (England's glory) Beautiful (A striking beauty) [Pre-Chorus 1] [Chorus 2] 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 crimes Dirt 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
