(Everybody E-E-Everybody Everybody E-E-Everybody Everybody E-E-Everybody Everybody jump to attention...)
Each morning after Sunblest Feel the benefit, mental arithmetic I waited by the staffroom In time for benediction Living a law just short of delusion When we fall in love theres confusion This must be the place I waited years to leave
To our voices nobodys listening We shiver in the rain by the touchline Then a coach ride to the station "My lord, the carriage awaiteth!" Living a law just short of delusion When we fall in love theres confusion This must be the place I waited years to leave This must be the place I waited years to leave And how How long?
Im listening to the words I thought Id never hear again A litany of saints and other ordinary men Kneeling on the parquet Whatever has gone wrong? The fear and feeling hopelessness I dont want to belong
I dreamt I was back in uniform And a candidate for examination History, someone had blundered And a voice rapped "knuckle under!" Living a law just short of delusion When we fall in love theres confusion This must be the place I waited years to leave This must be the place I waited years to leave And how And how How long?
