I decree today that life

Is simply taking and not giving

England is mine - it owes me a living

But ask me why, and I'll spit in your eye

Oh, ask me why, and I'll spit in your eye

But we cannot cling to the old dreams anymore

No, we cannot cling to those dreams

Does the body rule the mind

Or does the mind rule the body ?

I dunno...

Under the iron bridge we kissed

And although I ended up with sore lips

It just wasn't like the old days anymore

No, it wasn't like those days

Am I still ill ?

Oh ...

Am I still ill ?

Oh ...

Does the body rule the mind

Or does the mind rule the body ?

I dunno...

Ask me why, and I'll die

Oh, ask me why, and I'll die

And if you must, go to work - tomorrow

Well, if I were you I really wouldn't bother

For there are brighter sides to life

And I should know, because I've seen them

But not very often ...

Under the iron bridge we kissed

And although I ended up with sore lips

It just wasn't like the old days anymore

No, it wasn't like those days

Am I still ill ?

Oh ...

Oh, am I still ill ?

Oh ...
