You know what its like


The sky is falling - and the ground is rising
While the wind is acting the clown

And the rain - is making a new type of speech
For the people that are standing around

Who’s that - knocking on the window there?
Will she let her lover in?

The neighbors - are back from there holidays
But they won’t say where they’ve been.


You know what its like
If you want it to be
Take it if you want it
If you think it will be.


The apples eaten gravity
And Newton has contested the law

The lover is - playing a melody
Now she’s walking to the door

Little creaser has one last drink
Before the palace is closed.

The dog is howling to the sound of the phone
As the dreamers dream of gold.


You know what its like
If you want it to be
Take it if you want it
If you think it will be.


The last seats taken so I will have to stand
With the new shoes I bought today

The lover’s here standing next to me
Rehearsing lines for another play

Little creaser’s got on to the train
With Newton who’s just won the law

And weather’s left but apologized
While the neighbors say there poor


You know what its like
If you want it to be
Take it if you want it
If you think it will be.
