"Left To My Own Devices"

(Uuu.....us)

I get out of bed at half past ten

Phone up a friend, who's a party animal

Turn on the news and drink some tea

Maybe if you're with me we'll do some shopping

One day I'll read, or learn to drive a car

If you pass the test, you can beat the rest

But I don't like to compete, or talk street, street, street

I can pick up the best from the party animal

I could leave you, say goodbye

Or I could love you, if I try

And I could

And left to my own devices, I probably would

Left to my own devices, I probably would

Pick up a brochure about the sun

Learn to ignore what the photographer saw

I was always told that you should join a club

Stick with the gang, if you want to belong

I was a lonely boy, no strength, no joy

In a world of my own at the back of the garden

I didn't want to compete, or play out on the street

For in a secret life I was a round head general

I could leave you, say goodbye

Or I could love you, if I try

And I could

And left to my own devices, I probably would

Left to my own devices, I probably would

Oh, I would

I was faced with a choice at a difficult age

Would I write a book? Or should I take to the stage?

But in the back of my head I heard distant feet

Che Guevara and Debussy to a disco beat

It's not a crime when you look the way you do

The way I like to picture you

When I get home, it's late at night

I pour a drink and watch the fight

Turn off the TV, look at a book

Pick up the phone, fix some food

Maybe I'll sit up all night and day

Waiting for the minute I hear you say

I could leave you, say goodbye

Or I could love you, if I try

And I could

And left to my own devices, I probably would

Come on, baby, say goodbye

I could love you, if I try

And I could

And left to my own devices, I probably would

Left to my own devices, I probably would

Out of bed, at half past ten

The party animal phones a friend

Picks up news about the sun

And the working day has just begun

Sticks with the gang - at the back of the street

Pass the test - and you don't compete

Drive the car, if you're with me

Che Guevara's drinking tea

He reads about a new device

And takes to the stage in a secret life

(Uuu.....us)

Left to my own devices, I probably would

If I was left to my own devices, I possibly would

(Uuu.....us)

If I was left to my own devices, I probably would

Left to my own devices, I probably would

I could leave you, say goodbye

Or I could love you, if I try

And I could

And left to my own devices, I probably would

Left to my own devices, I probably would

Come on, baby

Left to my own devices, I probably would
