It's time to tear this place down
I've got the last gig on my mind
Not seen my friends in ages
Have I been left behind?
It's time to figure out why
I find myself in custody
With each and every question
Words come so easily

Fly to El Salvador
I don't know why and I don't know what for
I've seen the picture for myself
Where did that label go?
I tried it out but it didn't work so
I'll choose the picture for myself

It's time to start all over
Take only one thing spare to wear
Head for the check-in lights and
Get up into the air
It's time to take new measures
Someone will put us up tonight
Far from our place of rest I've
Almost got you in sight

Fly to El Salvador
I don't know why and I don't know what for
I've seen the picture for myself
Where did that label go?
I tried it out but it didn't work so
I'll choose the picture for myself

First class and big hotels
(I can't quite put my finger on it)
Videos and global sales
(I can't quite put my finger on it)
"Free" drinks that you pay yourself
(I can't quite put my finger on it)

Fly to El Salvador
I don't know why and I don't know what for
I've seen the picture for myself
Where did that label go?
I tried it out but it didn't work so
I'll choose the picture for myself

All the energetic people they all sparkle as they're walking down the street
Can't see their faces but I've noticed that they seem to have big hands
The stage is set, is there glamour, who's got my Etnies?

Now you know that I can see you and you know that it is easy
To see me something has been on my mind, something has struck me
Kind of odd, look out for quicksand, there is high ground
Who wants this rockscene?

We sing
Whenever you look you can see that everybody wants to be part of the rockscene
Whenever you look you can see that everybody wants to be part of the rockscene

Now the time has come and yeah the show it must stay strong
And are we all part of the latest craze or is this how we mend our ways
And I can hear the taxi calling, telling me we haven't left yet.
As the lights go on with emptiness and how you seem to stand out
In a crowd you raise the tempo in the disco as you make this place your own
The stage is set, is there glamour, I'm in this rockscene

CHORUS!
Whenever you look you can see that everybody wants to be part of the rockscene
Whenever you look you can see that everybody wants to be part of the rockscene
Whenever you look you can see that everybody wants to be part of the rockscene
Whenever you look you can see that everybody wants to be part of the rockscene

House on the rock
Surely it will last forever?
House on the rock
Don't you know it's now or never?
House on the rock
Surely it will last forever?
House on the rock

CHORUS!
Whenever you look you can see that everybody wants to be part of the rockscene
Whenever you look you can see that everybody wants to be part of the rockscene
Whenever you look you can see that everybody wants to be part of the rockscene
Whenever you look you can see that everybody wants to be part of the rockscene

When when when when whenever, rock scene! (repeat)

There was just one
At the top of a pile of one million
And she hasn't got a clue that she's become
A good samaritan
I missed her name
Before I blinked from the scene she'd run away
If I got the chance to meet her once again
What would I hear her say?

It was just one of those things
I needed to deal with
It was just one of those things
It was just one of those things
I needed to deal with

There was just one
At the top of a pile of one million
And there's no way of counting all I lost
What was I thinking of?
As it kicked off
I kept myself to myself and looked away
Should've put my foot in but I just stayed
Wrapped up in my own world

It was just one of those things
I needed to deal with
It was just one of those things
It was just one of those things
I needed to deal with

There was just one
At the top of a pile of one million
And she will be there for many years to come
Wondering where I am

It was just one of those things
I needed to deal with
It was just one of those things
It was just one of those things
That I should've dealt with
It was just one of those things

(This is just one of those things
You needed to deal with
This is just one of those things
This is just one of those things
You needed to deal with
This is just one of those things)

(This is just one of those things
You needed to deal with
This is just one of those things
You needed to deal with)

Lives in Edinburgh
Just across the road
Sometimes my stereo
And in my aching bones
It's on the sugar hill
And in your ring tone

Shake those windows
Sums and songs and
Beats and rhymes
And I like this blackout
It just helps to
Love those clear night skies

Just let the record play
And bring it back again
You can't appreciate
What we were into then

In two seconds
The beat was recognised
And all the old school heads
Nodded back in time
And though we just met
I've known you all my life

Shake those windows
Sums and songs and
Beats and rhymes
And I like this blackout
It just helps to
Love those clear night skies

Just let the record play
And bring it back again
You can't appreciate
What we were into then

Just let the record play
And bring it back again
You can't appreciate
What we were into then

Just let the record play
And bring it back again
You can't appreciate
What we were into then

Just let the record play
And bring it back again
You can't appreciate
What we were into then

Just let yourself go
Just let yourself go
Just let yourself go
Just let yourself go

Just let yourself go
Just let yourself go
Just let yourself go
Just let yourself go

Bring in in the new sound
Make it in, oh please make it in
All I have been missing
Fill me in, please fill me in

Oh this is beautiful
I've got to soak it up
I've got to soak it up
Oh this is beautiful
I've got to soak it up
I've got to soak it up

Give me teeth that are golden
And grown up food to eat
Shine, shine that light
Make it in, bring it in

Oh this is beautiful
I've got to soak it up
I've got to soak it up

Oh-oh this is beautiful
I've got to soak it up
I've got to soak it up

Oh this is beautiful
I've got to soak it up
I've got to soak it up

Oh-oh this is beautiful
I've got to soak it up
I've got to soak it up

There's a house at the end of the road
It's got no windows and
It's hard to see what's going on in there
There's a man and he asks you what you want
He's got no reason
But you feel like you can't just ignore what he says

Imagine he's all you've got
Imagine he's all you've got

There's a house at the end of the road
It's got no windows and
It's hard to make out what you just came here for
Catch the sun through the trees as you are walking
Through the garden
You've just got to get in before they close the door

Imagine he's all you've got
Imagine he's all you've got

Imagine this is all you have come across
Imagine she's all you've got
Imagine this is all you will ever have
Imagine he's all you've got

Oh no, gone and put my foot in it again
Think back, can't believe that it was me who said that
Last time, I promised I'd bite my tongue until I counted to ten

I said, oh it's getting hot in here
Must be something in the atmosphere
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, it's getting hot in here
Must be something in the atmosphere
Oh, we could be laughing about it
Making the most of the true British climate
Oh, it's getting hot in here
Must be something in the atmosphere
Oh, oh, oh, oh

I've seen the tension on the high street growing lately
Seems that you have to be careful who you look at
Sometimes I can't see things the way you see them
But this is our home

I said, oh it's getting hot in here
Must be something in the atmosphere
Oh, we could be laughing about it
Making the most of the true British climate
Oh, it's getting hot in here
Must be something in the atmosphere
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Yeah, you got the style
And we got the style
And they got the style
And everybody's got it

And you got the style
And we got the style
And they got the style
And everybody's got it

And you got the style
And we got the style
And they got the style
And everybody's got it

And you got the style
And we got the style
Oh oh

Oh, it's getting hot in here
Must be something in the atmosphere
Oh, we could be laughing about it
Making the most of the true British climate
Oh, it's getting hot in here
Must be something in the atmosphere
Oh, oh, oh, oh

I found a rope and a rubber glove
You found some pretty stones and they had holes so you could tie them together
Tie them together
Tie them together

And when we spoke there was silence
'Cause there's no need to make a sound when you've got
Smiles instead
Smiles instead
Smiles instead

Go to dungeness
Let's go to dungeness
Let's go to dungeness

No tall latte in a rusty shed
Just shots of light and broken bike to stimulate your busy head
In dungeness

Never meant to overstep the line
Skip across to Mexico
To get away from all you know

Never meant to overstep the line
Skip across to Mexico
To get away from all you know

Give it up, another time
Never meant to overstep the line
Skip across to Mexico
To get away from all you know
