Twenty-eight days of rain... Flash floods in February

Back in our boats again... Bath water and the baby

Looking at ghosts of you... While all the world is
sinking...

Ten thousand miles into the atmosphere

Throw your arms round the world... Make love your
destination

Here we go boys and girls... Act like a generation

Gimme that ball and chain... By now it must be hurting

Dragging your feet again... Just like a beast of
burden...

When one and one, and one, and one make two...

Closest thing to heaven... Heaven!

Saved by crumbs for all the starving millions...
