SMITHS lyrics : "Stretch Out And Wait"

All the lies that you make up
What's at the back of your mind ?
Oh,your face I can see and it's desperately kind

What's at the back of your mind ?

Two icy-cold hands conducting the way

It's the Eskimo blood in my veins
Amid concrete and clay
And general decay

Nature must still find a way
So ignore all the codes of the day
Let your juvenile impulses sway

This way and that way
This way, that way
God, how sex implores you

To let yourself lose yourself



Stretch out and wait
Stretch out and wait
Let your puny body, lie down, lie down

As we lie, you say
As we lie, you say
Stretch out and ...

Stretch out and wait
Stretch out and wait
Let your puny body lie down, lie down



As we lie, you say :

Will the world end in the night time ?
(I really don't know)
Or will the world end in the day time ?

(I really don't know)
And is there any point ever having children ?
Oh, I don't know

What I do know is we're Here and it's Now



So ... stretch out and wait
Stretch out and wait
There is no debate, no debate, no debate

How can you consciously contemplate
When there's no debate, no debate ?
Stretch out and wait

Stretch out and wait
Stretch out and wait
Wait

Wait
Wait
Wait

Oh ...
