Stretch out and Wait - 2008 Remaster

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
 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 and 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 nighttime?
 I really don't know
 Or will the world end in the daytime?
 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 consciously contemplate
 When there's no debate, no debate?
 Stretch out and wait
 Stretch out and wait
 Stretch out and wait
 Wait
 Wait
 Wait
 Wait, ah
 Da-da-d, oh, oh, oh
