| How come it never rains in Spain?
|
| And how come your dad looks like John Wayne?
|
| B-movies from the past,
|
| come back to me and you,
|
| you know it’s true,
|
| they’re watching everything we do Put your cards upon the table,
|
| tell your stories at the door,
|
| playing conkers by the stable,
|
| space invaders on the floor.
|
| Make a date with Uncle Fester,
|
| ride your bike across the moon,
|
| in black and white with Jimmy Mason,
|
| summer never comes too soon.
|
| Your face has put me in a trance,
|
| but when will you teach me how to dance.
|
| Unholy visitors still walking through my bed,
|
| and in my head,
|
| but then there’s nowhere else to go.
|
| Put your cards upon the table,
|
| tell your stories at the door,
|
| playing conkers by the stable,
|
| space invaders on the floor.
|
| Make a date with Uncle Fester,
|
| ride your bike across the moon,
|
| in black and white with Jimmy Mason,
|
| summer never comes too soon.
|
| It’s raining on the wrong side of the window,
|
| a nation’s nightmare becomes reality.
|
| If it wasn’t for bad luck I wouldn’t have any,
|
| always the one with the fork,
|
| when they’re dishing out gravy.
|
| (repeat)
|
| Put your cards upon the table,
|
| tell your stories at the door,
|
| playing conkers by the stable,
|
| space invaders on the floor.
|
| Make a date with Uncle Fester,
|
| ride your bike across the moon,
|
| in black and white with Jimmy Mason,
|
| summer never comes too soon. |
