Lyrics

These are danger days (what sort of days are these?)
These are troubled times (dy'aknow what time it is?)
There it goes again (another gear being slipped)
I must be near the sea (a single cod n' chips)
A cup a tea for three and (six including v.a.t.)
Around the rugged rocks (a round trip there and back)
The helter skelter's free (don't tell mad charlie that)
I'd send a bloody card (he'd want a bloody snap)

I'd stay at home today
But the world said
(Go man go)
Everybody said
(Go man go)
Local postman said
(Go man go)

I feel so down (so low, too tired to think)
I feel so low (oh no, well, whatdya think?)
My feet slow down (ah slow, well I can't lift my head)
A fevered brow (oh no, I think I'll stay here in bed)
Thunder over tokyo, pressure on my eyes
Hi-fi on their head, while they tidy their tithes
Dear auntie fifi, you should see this place
They grow a cushion on you back, and a flu mask on your face

I'd stay at home today
But the world said
(Go man go)
In japanese they said
Hoya soto ha ha ha(go man go)
I heard someone say
(Go man go)
And we went

Go man go (repeat)
