I'm so happy
lying here, reclining in this easy chair.
Wond'rin' what the hell could
go wrong.
My mind's confused, my body tired,
I wonder if I'm still
alive.
Has Anybody here please got the time.
Oh no, the
time.
(Chorus)
Ooh what a night.
Ooh what a night.
Ooh what a
night.
Ooh what A night, Ooh what a night.
Ooh what a night, Ooh
what a night.
Now the morning's drawing near.
my head she thump from
the beer.
And The telephone she ring.
(who's there?).
My God that
typist that I floored.
I Must have drunk more than I thought.
Can
anybody here please show me.
The door Oh no, you want more?.
(Chorus
repeat)

City Boy
" The
Day The Earth Caught Fire "
The day the Earth caught
fire.
We stood outside the world was laughing.
And in the city
square.
They cast umbrellas to the sky.
The sun above my head was
burning greedy red.
The horns began to blow "Three Cheers for
jericho".
The first evacuee.
I was headed for the sea, I saw
them.
The roadside refugees.
The boys with bloody knees who
waved.
Abandoned cars that lay too tired to drive away.
"A World in
Flames Today" was all the papers.
had to say
Run for your
life.
(The Earth's caught fire).
Run for your life.
(The
Earth's caught fire).
Run, run, run
Run for your
life.
(The Earth's on fire).
Run for your life (The Earth's on
fire).
Run, run, run.
The streetcar prophet
said.
"You thought that God was dead-I warned you.
The sinners and
the saved.
They fell down to their knees and prayed.
Believers held
their breath and stoned a witch to death.
The leaders and the led
said.
"Blow the bloody Reds away!"
Run for your life (The
Earth's caught fire).
Run for your life (The Earth's caught
fire).
Run, run, run.
Run for your life (The Earth's on
fire).
Run for your life (The Earth's on fire).
