Lyrics
On A Island
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Whilst we float on this molten sea
We wear our colours so heroically
Were only living in GMT
Everyone else is just a refugee
Ah I wake up, I'll take up
It's about time for a shake up
When pride is blind you know were only stuck in second gear
So … up; never give up
It's about time to deliver
Without the man who drives you …
You know I'm staying in
Were on an island in the sea
Were on and island we never leave
Were on an island in the sea
Were on and island we never leave
Well we feel subsequent resent
And oVerseas we like to represent
Cause nothing but embarrassment
We had nothing but our good intent
Ah I wake up, I'll take up
It's about time for a shake up
I'm talking loud; that doesn't mean you can't be understood
So … up; never give up
It's about time to deliver
I think it's about time we got to meet the neighborhood
Were on an island in the sea
Were on and island we never leave
Were on an island in the sea
Were on and island we never leave
Were on an island in the sea
Were on and island we never leave
Were on an island in the sea
Were on and island we never leave
