Left on my Own Devices (maxi)
I get out of bed at half past ten
And phone up a friend who's a party animal
Turn on the news and drink some tea
Maybe if you're with me we'll do some shopping.
One day I'll read or learn to drive a car
If you pass the test you can beat the rest
But I don't like to compete or talk street
Street
Street
I can pick up the best from the party animal.
I could leave you
Say goodbye
Or I could love you if I tried
And I could
And left to my own devices I probably would.
Pick up a brochure about the sun
Learn to ignore what the photoprapher saw
I was always told that you should join a club
Stick with the gang if you want to belong.
I was a lonely boy
No strength
No joy
In a world of my own at the back of the garden
I didn't want to compete or play out on the street
For in a secret life I was a Roundhead general.
I could leave you
Say goodbye
Or I could love you if I tried
And I could
And left to my own devices I probably would
Oh
I would !
I was faced with a choice at a difficult age
Would I write a book or should I take to the stage ?
Out in the back of my head I heard distant feet
Che Guevara and Debussy to a disco beat.
It's not a crime when you look the way you do
The way I like to picture you
When I get home it's late at night
I pour a drink and watch the fight.
Turn off the T.V.
Look for a book
Pick up the phone
Fix some food
Maybe I'll sit up all night and day
Waiting for the minute I hear you say:
I could leave you
Say goodbye
...
Come on
Baby
Sa goodbye
...
Left to my own devices I probably would
Come on
Baby
Left to my own devices I probably would.
Out of bed at half past ten
The party animal phones a friend
Pick up news about the sun
And the working day has just begun.
Sticks with the gang at the back of the street
Pass the test and he don't compete.
Drive a car if you're with me
Che Guevara's drinking
He reads about a new device
And takes to the stage in a secret life.
I would if I could
If I was left to my own devices I probably would.
