Three Orange Kisses From Kazan Lyrics - The The

When my body gets up out of my bed 

I'm always singing in my head 

I am lucky 

There are people doing what they do best 

Simply cleaning up the mess for the rest 

I'd say their lives are not in their hands 

They're just doing what their bosses demand 

I'd say take your boss in your hand 

And squeeze it until you hear this sound 

I was always having trouble keeping body & soul together 

I would bury my chin in my chest 

But no one would ever dig it out 

And so put my mind at rest 

Why do people never say what they mean? 

Why do people just repeat what they read? 

I'd say are lives are not in our hands 

We're doing what our guts demand 

I say take our guts in our hands 

Before they turn the earth into sand
