lyrics

When life gets you down
You need a little bit of order, yeah
When life gets you down
Need a little bit of order, yeah

In a blaze of light with a flash of steel
That there’s not me and this ain’t real
With a superman cape and a mask of steel
Now I’m not here and I can’t feel Ooooh

When life gets you down
You need a little bit of order, yeah
When life gets you down
Need a little bit of order, yeaeeeah

When the guest ain’t joy and the sky is grey
In a blaze of light with a flash of steel
Now I’m not here and I can’t feel

Under attack from the one you think you love
Your mind goes while the lies flow and even though the truth speaks clearly in your soul
They confuse you, abuse you and use you until you’re not sure who you are anymore
And you jump at the sound of their footsteps coming through the door
Close your eyes, close your eyes feel yourself inside, there is a light that knows this ain’t right

When life gets you down (sing it)
You need a little bit of order, yeah (sing it, sing it, sing it)
When life gets you down
Need a little bit of order, yeah (order, order)

Sing it at the bus stop waiting in the rain
Sing it to the person who is causing all the pain
Sing up now, sing it up now

Sing it to the clock who bullies you with time
Sing it to the reaper who will have your soul and mine
Sing up now, sing it up now

Sing it at the bust stop waiting in the rain
Sing it to the person who is causing all the pain
Sing up now, sing it up now

The World in Air Quotes
by The God in Hackney

A genuine masterpiece.Every sound, line & chord change is in exactly the right place. It turns & twists fluidly through genres. It's humorous, deadpan & exciting. For lovers of "sound" look no further Dos Floris
