Foundations Lyrics - Singles - Beautiful South

(Heaton/Rotheray) 

Build your dream castle out of sand 

It's bound to get washed up anyway 

Dream your dreams out of last week 

They're bound to have come up yesterday 

If you want to give them flowers 

Make them paper ones you send 

Live your life a jigsaw 

It goes back in the box, in the end 

Build your dream heart from plasticine 

'Cause you're putty in their hands 

Mould your ambition in concrete 

'Cause you'll only land in quicksand

Carve your dough from play-dough 

'Cause they'll roll you into a ball 

Make your friends from Lego 

'Cause Lego makes a wall 

'Cause when you build big houses 

The paintings get stolen 

The devil says he's silver 

When you know that he is golden 

When papier m鈉h⌦ㄲ㬸 heads make more sense 

than the sun 

Giving teacher apples could be fun or dumb 

Build your planes from Airfix 

'Cause you'll only lose the war 

Write your love letters on rice paper 

At least you'll feed the poor

Build your dream castle out of sand 

It's bound to get washed up anyway 

Dream your dreams out of last week 

They're bound to have come up yesterday
