lyrics

Do you feel the buzz of boredom running laps around your chest?
Do you like your talk of English weather being second guessed?
Did you stay here for the music?
Would you like a cup of tea?
Did your tastebuds dry like the sun until you ate that foreign meal?

Did you stay here for the music?

Have you noticed how the shops in all the streets look all the same?
How obsessed we are with money and with monarchy and fame?
Are you putting up the locks on all the windows and the doors?
Lest those burglars try to get you in the night without a cause?

Did you stay here for the music?

And when teachers fear the children lest their mothers scream abuse,
Then they question why their children grow up awkward and recluse.
Did you stay here for the music?
Would you like a cup of tea?
Did your tastebuds dry like the sun until you ate that foreign meal?

Did you stay here for the music?
