Lookin' at the memories in my eyelids They have to close before I start to be somewhere else Local to the part, but I am never asked who There's police tape on the play area, swings in my mood Difficult times, magnificent skies Difficult times, silver linings Turn the spindle, work the blind To learn life from birds in the sky To learn lingo, Urban Dictionary The tops of the poplars, the common blackbird hops Shopping trolley nights vandalised Difficult times, magnificent skies Difficult times, silver linings Seemed different outside The riddle of life's over in a haiku Weeping willows, sleep with a pillow Peeping furloughed in the Creeping Charlies Difficult times, magnificent skies I agree with the guy on the TV tonight But his wallpaper's dead, it needs the NHS Difficult times, magnificent skies Difficult times, silver linings Mother Nature knows us, she made us make machines We blocked her on Insta, but we'll face her in our dreams We bend 'til it's broken off and falls America plays out like Rome on fast-forward Difficult times, magnificent skies Difficult times, silver linings Keep saying a word until it loses meaning Then it is just sounds and some moving of a mouth Difficult times, magnificent skies Difficult times, silver linings This man is so high, he is asking me why We are all religious with no man in the sky That package arrived, knock door Run past the parcel, past the garden Be a mad debacle at the barber's Smoke over back, fuelled by what looks like a shed I smoke over that while my Juul's not dead Got to keep it on the high, when we sleep, dogs die I can't taste anything, that's Baz's Hot Sauce Can't wait 'til I can't feel my face in the spot, ooh Difficult times, magnificent skies Difficult times, silver linings

You to me Are sweet as roses in the morning And you to me Are soft as summer rain at dawn, in love we share That something rare The sidewalks in the street The concrete and the clay beneath my feet Begins to crumble But love will never die Because we'll see the mountains tumble Before we say goodbye My love and I will be In love eternally That's the way Mmm, that's the way it's meant to be All around I see the purple shades of evening And on the ground The shadows fall and once again you're in my arms So tenderly The sidewalks in the street The concrete and the clay beneath my feet Begins to crumble But love will never die Because we'll see the mountains tumble Before we say goodbye My love and I will be In love eternally That's the way Mmm, that's the way it's meant to be The sidewalks in the street The concrete and the clay beneath my feet Begins to crumble But love will never die Because we'll see the mountains tumble Before we say goodbye My love and I will be In love eternally That's the way Mmm, that's the way it's meant to be And that's the way That's the way it's meant to be That's the way That's the way it's meant to be Are sweet as roses in the morning Are soft as summer rain at dawn

Santa claus is drinking beer Trying not to worry Hearing things he doesn't want to hear Cause he's in a hurry to say goodbye To say goodbye Santa claus is drinking gin Trying not to worry Stops himself from listening in Cause he's in a hurry to say goodbye To say goodbye Chorus Apocalypso - its a special dance Apocalypso - tell me why they're trying to wipe the Smile off santa's face White sheets and bright lights in the sky Shining through his window Santa claus is wondering why There's nothing on his radio - it must be time To say goodbye Repeat chorus Repeat verse 1 Repeat chorus Tell me why they're trying to wipe Trying to wipe the smile of santa's face Wipe the smile off santa's face and burning off his beard Blow the roof off santa's house and drying all his tears Blow that smile off santa's face and burning off his beard Blow the roof off santa's house and drying all his tears
