	Hey, hey,
	The clouds are whey.
	There's straw for the donkeys,
	And the innocents can all sleep safely,
	All sleep safely.

	My, my,
	Sun is pie.
	There's fodder for the cannons,
	And the guilty ones can all sleep safely,
	All sleep safely.

	And all the world is football-shaped
	It's just for me to kick in space
	And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste
	And I've got one, two, three, four, five
	Senses working overtime
	Trying to take this all in.
	I've got one, two, three, four, five
	Senses working overtime
	Trying to taste the difference
	'Tween a lemon and a lime
	Pain and the pleasure
	And the church bells softly chime.

	Hey hey,
	Night fights day.
	There's food for the thinkers,
	And the innocents can all live slowly,
	All live slowly.
	My, my,
	The sky will cry
	Jewels for the thirsty,
	And the guilty one's can all die slowly ,
	All die slowly.

	And all the world is biscuit-shaped,
	It's just for me to feed my face,
	And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste,
	And I've got one, two, three, four, five,
	Senses working overtime
	Trying to take this all in.
	I've got one, two, three, four, five,
	Senses working overtime
	Trying to taste the difference,
	'Tween a lemon and a lime,
	Pain and the pleasure,
	And the church bells softly chime,

	And birds might fall from black skies,
	And bullies might give you black eyes,
	And busses might skid on black ice,
	But to me it's very, very beautiful ˇ
	(England's glory!)
	Beautiful ˇ
	(A striking beauty!)

	And all the world is football-shaped,
	It's just for me to kick in space,
	And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste,
	And I've got one, two, three, four, five,
	Senses working overtime
	Trying to take this all in
	I've got one, two, three, four, five
	Senses working overtime
	Trying to tell the difference
	'Tween the goods and grime
	Turds and treasure
	And there's one, two, three, four, five
	Senses working overtime
	Trying to take this all in
	I've got one, two, three, four, five
	Senses working overtime
	Trying to taste the difference
	'Tween a lemon and a lime
	Pain and the pleasure,
	And the church bells softly chime.
