Stretch Out And Wait Lyrics

    All the lies that you make up
    What's at the back of your mind ?
    Oh, your face i can see
    And it's desperately kind
    But what's at the back of your mind ?

    Two icy-cold hands conducting the way
    It's the eskimo blood in my veins
    Amid concrete and clay
    And general decay
    Nature must still find a way
    So ignore all the codes of the day
    Let your juvenile influences sway
    This way and that way
    This way, that way
    God, how sex implores you
    To let yourself lose yourself


    Stretch out and wait
    Stretch out and wait
    Let your puny body, lie down, lie down
    As we lie, you say
    As we lie, you say
    Stretch out and ...
    Stretch out and wait
    Stretch out and wait
    Let your puny body lie down, lie down


    As we lie, you say :
    Will the world end in the night time ?
    (i really don't know)
    Or will the world end in the day time ?
    (i really don't know)
    And is there any point ever having children ?
    Oh, i don't know
    All i do know is we're here and it's now


    So ... stretch out and wait
    Stretch out and wait
    There is no debate, no debate, no debate
    How can you conciously contemplate
    When there's no debate, no debate ?
    Stretch out and wait
    Stretch out and wait
    Stretch out and wait
    Wait
    Wait
    Wait
    Wait
    Oh ...
