Cardiacs - The Whole World Window lyrics

rate me

It's just a funny world

That hides me out of sight

And I will stay with her

All through the day

And through the night

And if she only had

Stopped making that hissing noise

That haunts me now

And makes a joke of me

With all the other boys

And then the world begins to seethe

Then she releases what's closed in on me

And then asks

"Is it just mud that breaks the whole world window?"

And turns as if to try

So do I

So do I

And when I'm really here

That's when I'm really here

My right life begins to disappear

And I remember my mum

Told me out of all my funny toys

That you won't make a man of me

And growing up's an interesting

Thing to do

And then all life begins to scream

The whole world changes like I've never seen

And then she goes up to the window

And leaps into the sky

So do I

So do I

So do I

So do I

Will you sit down

Is everybody happy?

There is a sign outside you house saying

"Everyone is happy"

Well I for one am most certainly not

Is everybody happy?

Is it just mud that breaks the whole world window?

I'll turn as if to try

Poor soldier now you've created your own monster

Then turn as if to try
