Squeeze - Strong in Reason lyrics

(Difford/Tilbrook)

WARNING: These lyrics are unconfirmed and may be inaccurate. They represent the best attempt at deciphering the song we have yet to see.

You get your trunks

Out of the drawer

You see yourself

As once before

Strong in reason

Strong in reason

The empty box

Lies on the chair

Another steroid

Grease your hair and you're

Strong in reason

Strong in reason

The sun-ray lamp

Is put away

There is no need

To be afraid

Strong in reason

Strong in reason

So fix yourself

Into a shape

Your audience

Is half awake and you're

Strong in reason

Strong in reason

The time has come

To flex your back

Another day

For you, meat-rack

Strong in reason

Strong in maker

Strong in arm

Strong with almost perfect charm

Strong intention

Strong in strength

Strong in almost every sense

Strong in reason

Strong in reason

Strong in reason

Strong in reason

And on the stage

The lights are green

It's one step forward

Now you've been seen

Strong in reason

Strong in reason

The right arm up

The left arm down

Open mouth

The vacant crowd

Strong in reason

Strong in reason

The chest of wax

Flips like a coin

Into the rhythm

Into the join

Strong in reason

Strong in reason

The ladies in

The comfortable seats

They look at you with

Eyes so deep 'cause they're

Strong in reason

Strong in reason

Well take a bow

Because you'll get the sack

I'm pleased to slag you off

Meat-rack

Strong in reason

Strong in reason

Strong in maker

Strong in arm

Strong with almost perfect charm

Strong intention

Strong in strength

Strong in almost every sense

Strong in reason

Strong in reason

Strong in reason

Strong in reason
