TV Priest - The Big Curve Lyrics




This could be
The first day of the rest of your life
But I was mystified
By the images on the screen

Well this could be
The first day of the rest of your life
You tell yourself
But I was amused at the thoughts of my ancestors

Well it could have been me
But my number had just come up
At exactly, exactly the right time

And the view from the floor was
Was of the fields and of the trees
And you convinced yourself it was the end of the thing

The books on my shelf!
The books on my shelf!
They were telling me otherwise

Upwards and upwards
Forwards and upwards
Upwards in cycles
Cycling forward

Where do you sit on the big curve? Where do you sit on the great big curve?

You see I make fire too
(except quicker)
Tell me who had it better, the dinosaur or the vicar?
(both pretty good I hear)

Well I was too busy looking forwards
And there was none one, there was no one, looking back at me
Well I realised too late I was too busy looking forwards
And there was no one looking back at me
Many are called and few get up
Many are called and few get up
Time washes over us' said the man in the big suit

Upwards and upwards
Upwards and forwards
Forwards in cycles
Cycling forward

Where do you sit on the big curve? Where do you sit on the great big curve?

Ha ha ha ha
Oh it was hysterical
Oh it was so so funny
Oh it was hysterical
Oh it was so so funny

It was funny what they used to think
Back in the old days, with their King James Bible
And their Gutenburg Press
And everyone saying everything they ever felt
All the time
