It was all going fine, we were biding our time
We were working like camels, but on the subject of animals
The elephant loomed in the back of the room
It was a matter of time,
Put it out of your mind, like people do
But will you look at the clock!
All you ever wanted was a decent conversation, didn't you?
All we ever avoided was a decent conversation, didn't we?
There was a time and a space for to tidy the place
For us to change all the locks, put the mess in a box
But instead we sat like a couple of twats
Fixing sweet sod all cept wa gaze on the wall
Watching the hands spin around on the clock
All you ever wanted was a decent conversation, didn't you?
All we ever avoided was a decent conversation, didn't we?
Now it's a little too late, all the fruit's out of date
It tends to get stale, mate, when avoiding confrontation
But waste is waste when you get sick of the taste
Yeah, the summer was a bit rushed
The weather didn't help much
So we needed space, least that's what we thought
And now we've got more space than an astronaut
Sailing way above the cloud, Azimov would be proud
You want a lot more freedom?
Well, there's the outcome.
Careful what you wish for
All you ever wanted was a decent conversation, didn't you?
All we ever avoided was a decent conversation, didn't we?
