Stephen Duffy & The Lilac Time - Bank Holiday Monday lyrics

rate me

Bank holiday Monday

You don't have a lot to say

You're waiting for payday

You can't wait to get away

This boring town gets you down

There's no one to come around

Why wait in for someone

Who is not as good as you?

Railway station

Train on the eastbound track

Girls without make up

Keeping me coming back

When you're old you can't be told

That anywhere is paved with gold

Why wait in for something

That's not as good as you?

You must take heart

You're heading for the sky

You don't have to ask why

Wystan Hugh Auden

John Winston, Ono Lennon

Left middle England

Where they suffocate everything

They got away and so could you

What else is there to do?

Why wait in for something

That's not as good as you?

May day, bank holiday Monday, 2002
