Sole Salvation

Of course I want there to be an us,

I've always wanted that

But how

And if giving time and patience

Trying hard to understand

We never feel the power of our own hands

Sense the danger late

And only vaguely ever grasp the means of our sole salvation?

What then?

Do it right, do it now!

Here there, everywhere

Shouting out "I'm mad as hell"

He pushes his legs against the bed

And feels the triumph flooding through his head

He could conquer,

He could win,

Now that dying only means you're not in next week's programme

Stop being a baby

Will you stop, will stop it

Won't you stop play-acting little man?

Just how long till you drop it

Will it be this year, next year, sometime, never?

Stop, when you feel like saying "Have a heart but don't take mine"

There's a new dance "The Tolerence,"

And it just might be your sole salvation

sole salvation

sole salvation

sole salvation

Skabadoo ooh yeah,

Yeah skabaday,

Make a cross,

Make amends,

Set the record straight

We've never said the only things we should have ever

Bothered saying

Lets write out a list of things we need

Lets strike a brand new deal

That's stron for any man,

But has a woman's understanding in it

and then finish!

Just stop, when you feel like saying "Have a heart, but don't take mine"

Try a new dance "The Tolerence,"

It just might be our sole salvation,

sole salvation sole salvation sole salvation

sole salvation,

sole salvation?

Oooh yeah yeah

Skab-a-doo, skab-a-day

Skab-a-doo, skab-a-day.
