"It Won’t Come Again":
I found its head up on Chalcot Farm And Seven Sisters under plaster palms I
followed footprints up to Belsize Park I queued in Aldwych till the sky turned dark on all of us
I lifted filmstock
from the studio bin While waiting for John Gee to let us in I never thought that I would see the day That magic world
would just fade away and die on me – oh, it was so sad to see
(Refrain) And it won’t come again –
it’s a joke to pretend The coloured lights and the groovy clothes They only illustrate that no one knows where
it’s gone And it won’t come again – you’re a fool to pretend You might look mean with your teardrop
axe You think you’re cool in your hipster slacks, but you’re wrong
I sat for hours in a plywood booth In
my encapsulated search for truth The oh-so-Heavy Jelly album hoax It caught me out with the simple folks of seventeen
– you know what I mean
(Refrain)
They took the piss, but it still felt good We didn’t mind,
‘cos we understood And now you put it all down to dope I sometimes think that there’s just no hope anymore Hey,
man, wanna score?
(Refrain) (thanks Stu Pope for finding the lyrics)
