Lyrics Senses Working Overtime

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
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 ones 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
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
Woo-woo
And bullies might give you black eyes
Woo-woo
And buses might skid on black ice
Woo-woo
But to me they're very, very beautiful
England's glory
Beautiful
A striking beauty
Doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo
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 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
