Denims And Curls

Текст песни The Chameleons - Denims And Curls

Denims and curls
Is this all that you are?
No, I think there's something more
Behind that barricaded door
Are you hiding in a bedroom singing away
To someone else's tune?
Are you frightened by the forces
We have unleashed in all our passion?

Those who see, you never see
And those who hear, you never hear
They're just the way they'll always be
You'd better run, little boy
Run little girl
Run little girl

Sack cloth and curls
Is this all that you are?
Is this all that others see?
Then they're blind as well as stupid
They can lock you away just for thinking out loud
And throw away the key
Never caring how you feel
Or what is or isn't real

This foolish world will hold you down
Screw your feet into the ground
Try to take away the stars
Just like that night on the sands, I was there too
I held your hand
Oh
Where in the world is your inspiration
To say the things you're aching to say?
Where in the world is your inspiration
To say the things you're aching to say?
Wherever that turns out to be
Go there this day
That's what my teacher said to me

You'd better run little, boy
Run, little girl
Run, little boy
Run, little girl
La la hee
La la hee
La la hoo

This foolish world can hold you down
Screw your feet into the ground
But they can't take away the stars
Just like that night on the sands, I'll be there, too
I'll hold your hand

Where in the world is your inspiration
To say the things you're aching to say?
Where in the world is your inspiration
To say the things you're aching to say?
Wherever that turns out to be
Go there this day
That's what my teacher said to me
That's what my teacher told me to say
Hey
Hey
Ah, kiss them all and wave them goodbye
Ah, kiss them all and wave them goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye
Wipe the tear, mother dear, from your eye
