Maccoll Kirsty - Innocence lyrics

Kirsty MacColl/Pete Glenister)

It wouldn't take a long time

To explain what lies between us

And it wouldn't take a genius

To work out what the scene is

It might just take a pilot

To give you a natural high

But you're sending off those bottletops

For your 'free piece of mind!'

And are you just waving or drowning?

It's so hard to tell when you're so far away

Oh innocence has passed you by

A long long time ago

I was the fly upon your wall

And I saw what you know

Your pornographic priestess left you for another guy

You frighten little children and you always wonder why

Always wonder why

The mercury is rising

And it's not all that surprising

In the land of milk and honey

Where you make 'Big Money'

And it always keeps the rain off

And it always keeps you dry

But back home the people hate you

And you never did know why

But I think I'm going to tell you

Just give me fifty thousand lire for my thoughts

Oh innocence has passed you by

A long long time ago

I was the fly upon your wall

And I saw what you know

The supermarket checkout girl

Once smacked you in the eye

When you eat no one else does

But you always wonder why

Always wonder why

It would take a gunshot

Just to clear your head awhile

And after all this time

How can you stand there

Look at me and smile?

Now are you just waving or drowning?

It's so hard to tell when you're so far away

Oh innocence has passed you by

A long long time ago

I was the fly upon your wall

And I saw what you know

Degeneration suits you, now I'm going home to cry

You won't be seeing me again

But you'll always wonder why

Always wonder why
