I can already hear your tune

Calling me across the room

When the world and his wife

Are on my back again

Not enough pleasure

Too much pain



When the world is too much with me

Please leave, just go away

Before I lose my mind completely

Please leave, just go now



In the side street something's moving

Look around, look around, all around you

Walls are tumbling down

Stop staring at the ground



I can practically see your face

And another revolutionary falls from grace

Hear the thunder in your brain

Not enough sunshine

Too much rain



When the light of life has gone

No change for the meter

Then the king of spivs will come

Selling blood by the liter



When nothing's sacred anymore

When the demon's knocking on your door

You'll still be staring down at the floor



Not too many hours from this hour

So long? The storm comes

Or is it just another shower?



Picking up the pieces

Half alive in a nine 'til five

Vacant eyes, is it any wonder?

Primal scream at the TV screen

Close your eyes



Now the world is too much with me

Please leave, just go away

Before I lose my mind completely

Just leave, please go now



Now nothing's sacred anymore

When the demon's breaking down your door

You'll still be staring down at the floor



Not too many hours from this hour

So long? Now the storm has come

Or is it just another shower?
