Left To My Own Devices (Single Version) [2001 Remastered Version]歌词

I get out of bed at half past ten
Phone up a friend who's a party animal

Turn on the news and drink some tea
Maybe if you're with me we'll do some shopping

One day I'll read or learn to drive a car
If you pass the test you can beat the rest
But I don't like to compete or talk street street street
I can pick up the best from the party animal

I could leave you say goodbye

Or I could love you if I try

And I could

And left to my own devices I probably would

Pick up a brochure about the sun

Learn to ignore what the photographer saw
I was always told that you should join a club
Stick with the gang if you want to belong
I was a lonely boy no strength no joy
In a world of my own at the back of the garden
I didn't want to compete or play out on the street
For in a secret life I was a round head general

I could leave you say goodbye

Or I could love you if I try
And I could

And left to my own devices I probably would

Left to my own devices I probably would oh I would

I was faced with a choice at a difficult age
Would I write a book or should I take to the stage
But in the back of my head I heard distant feet
Che guevara and debussy to a disco beat

It's not a crime when you look the way you do

The way I like to picture you

When I get home it's late at night
I pour a drink and watch the fight

Turn off the TV look at a book

Pick up the phone fix some food

Maybe I'll sit up all night and day
Waiting for the minute I hear you say

I could leave you say goodbye
Or I could love you if I try

And I could

And left to my own devices I probably would
Come on baby say goodbye
I could love you if I try
And I could

And left to my own devices I probably would

Left to my own devices I probably would
Come on baby

Left to my own devices I probably would
