Everybody Loves A Happy Ending

Toe the line
Toe the line


Wake up your time is nearly over
No more the supernova
And no action guaranteed


Wake up you've had an operation
Ideals above your station
Too much reality


Think about the waste of time spending
Watching Mother Nature's knees bending
Everybody loves a happy ending


Wake up you're on your own agenda
Give up the great pretender
With baby eyes of green


Wake up you're holding on to nothing
You know you're only bluffing
As dead as autumn leaves


Think about the waste of time spending
Watching Mother Nature's knees bending
Everybody loves a happy ending


Don't you just love a happy ending?
Oh yeah well so do I
And all your love will shine on everyone


The darkness of the day
A curse in every way
You try to see the light
But you don't know why
Don't know why


They tell you on the phone
To give your God a bone
And grow a set of wings like a butterfly


The guarding at the gate
Reminds you that you're late
You try to take your time
But you toe the line
Toe the line


The children of the world
And daddy's little girl
The grass is always green on the other side
So stay and breathe new lies


Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up


Wake up, wake up
Everything is moving faster than you think
(Wake up, wake up)
Your pen is running out of ink
(Wake up, wake up)
Fill up your bath and kitchen sink
(Wake up, wake up)
They're really kicking up the stink
(Wake up, wake up)
You've never found the missing link
(Wake up, wake up)
You should be happy in the pink.
(Wake up, wake up)
You're in demand but out of sync.
(Wake up, wake up)
A nod is as good as a wink.
(Wake up, wake up)
Once more, my dear friends, to the brink.
