ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA - Cherry Blossom Clinic lyrics

CHERRY BLOSSOM CLINIC

Written by Roy Wood

Performed by the Move

Discovered that the papers have been signed

To my bed I am confined

Owing to my state of mind

Special food for thought I must be fed

the authorities have said Im going off my head

Suddenly from flowered skies

Twenty thousand butterflies

Glorify my bed in deep maroon

Turn from hot to very cool

Though it seems incredible

I could ride a bike around the moon

Cherry Blossom Clinic

Is there any truth in what they say

Cherry Blossom Clinic

Lock me in and throw the key away

In this sad position where I lie

From the corner of my eye

Callous friends just pass me by

Doctor pays a visit

Everyday I keep asking for my Dad

They must think I'm going mad

Lift the blankets off my face

Quick before I suffocate

Trying hard to meditate

Tell the people, "What a scene"

Write a letter to the Queen

Asking her if she can come to tea

CHORUS

Up above the sun is high

Like a tea tray in the sky

Helicopter lands upon my bed

Phantom horses quickly fade

Turning into lemonade

Probably feel better when I'm dead

CHORUS
