Leipzig

-------



Thirty-nine and you need some leeway

Soon you're eying the overseas page

The trains are running late

As you close the garden gate

Stepping through your steel front door frame

Dinner's in the microwave, sweetie



Leipzig is calling you, Henry (on the cardboard thoroughfare)

Leipzig is calling you, James

Leipzig is calling you, Leonard (the clouds run parallel)

Leipzig is calling you names



Cars were burning

On yellow lines

Wheels turning

Traffic light...change



Another misty bus queue morning

Faces smile down from a hoarding

Stoop to the bin

Drop something in

Well you'll soon feel yourself again

And every place is just the same, isn't it?



Leipzig is calling you, Benny (from the mouth of the megaphone)

Leipzig is calling you, James

Leipzig is calling you, Leonard (and other cartoon characters)

Leipzig is calling you names



Like the sound of taxi brakes

The sound of a dentist's drill

The colour of skates on ice under clingfilm



It's calling

Leipzig is calling you names

Hear it calling.

Every place is just the same isn't it?



Leipzig is calling you, Benny (from the mouth of the megaphone)

Leipzig is calling you, James

Leipzig is calling you, Leonard (and other cartoon characters)

Leipzig is calling you names
