China drum - Somewhere Else lyrics

Creeping over to you on a Saturday afternoon

I must have been ill I was early

Crawling along, I was seeing what had happened

Through last night it was nothing I assure you

Well it's time to place your bets

You better make sure it's a safe one

You could always answer no

I never smoked your cigarettes

I suppose you could say that's a safe one

Five miles down you'll never hear the attitude

Calm down I'd better go somewhere else, somewhere else

Falling over each other in the rush to get in their worth

it's so sad and it's boring

It's a shame we could focus all our powers somewhere else

Someone nice someone caring

But it's all been said before

Still nothing ever changes

We're still hunting out for more

I never meant to cut you short

I wasn't capable of anything

Five years on you'd never hear that attitude

Calm down I'd rather be somewhere else, somewhere else

Well it's time to place your bets

You better make sure it's a safe one

I could always answer no

I never understood what you meant

When you said she'd hang on every syllable

Five years on I've never seen the attitude

Calm down, I'd like a bit of gratitude

I only came here for a bit of solitude

But right now I'd rather be somewhere else, somewhere else

Crawling over to you on a Saturday afternoon

I must have been ill I was early

Creeping along I was seeing what had happened through last night

It was nothing I assure you

On my bike, up the glen, in the sun

Round the bends, having fun, playing games

In the rain, in the lakes, at the gig

Watch the stage louds

Going down, eating in, but ha, not with you
