[ Featuring Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Scott Dunn ]
I'M SO TIRED OF THE GRIME AND THE SQUALLOR OF THE CITY
I'M SO WEARY OF LIVING IN THIS TERRIBLE TOWN
WOULDN'T IT BE GRAND TO BE
STANDING HAND IN HAND TO BE
WATCHING THE SUN GO DOWN
STROLLING UNDER WONDERFUL AGE OLD TREES
COMMUNING WITH THE BIRDS AND THE BUGS AND THE BEES
LET'S GO AND LIVE IN THE COUNTRY
LET'S LEAVE THE CITY FOR GOOD
WHY DON'T WE PACK UP AND LOCK UP AND SHACK UP
IN SOME LITTLE SHACK IN THE WOOD
LET'S LEAVE THE RAT RACE BEHIND US
LIVE IN A BEAUTIFUL DREAM
FAR FROM THE RABBLE
WE'LL HAPPILY DABBLE
OUR TOES IN A BABBLING STREAM
WE'LL HAVE TIME TO REFLECT
ON THE WORLD AND ITS LUNATIC WAYS
AND WE WON'T SEE A SOUL
NOT FOR DAYS AND DAYS AND DAYS AND DAYS
BUT!
WHAT IF THE WINTERS APPALLING
WHAT IF THE ROOF STARTS TO LEAK
WHAT IF WE'RE LONELY AND BORED
WITH OUR OWN LITTLE WORLD AFTER ONLY ONE WEEK
I'VE GOT A HORROR OF HORSES
WE'RE BOTH ALLERGIC TO HAY
PICTURE US FREEZING AND COUGHING AND WHEEZING
AND GASPING AND SNEEZING ALL DAY
WHY DON'T WE
TAKE THE CAR
DRIVE A BIT
LOOK AT THE VIEW TILL WE'RE SICK OF IT
SIT IN THE SUN TILL IT STARTS TO RAIN
THEN COME BACK TO THE CITY AGAIN
THAT FABULOUS CITY
SO WICKED
SO WITTY
THAT FABULOUS CITY AGAIN
