As It Was by The Mavericks of Love Lyrics
All gone
Kept under the rug
No trace
On your day off
Seven swans
Six balloons
Five daughters
Four flumes
The worms and the flies come out
Someone else's life
No need to shout
With a mouldable impressionable young man
strangers meet at the festival
I'll see you there and best of all
when we greet the rising sun
Sunken Treasures
You never did anything to harm
You never did anything to help
You stand up I'll sit you down
I'm not gone
Or if I am
I won't be gone for long
I belong here
though I know I won't
be long here
A sudden flush of coral clouds in eastern sky
and I don't follow you fully
the red ink in the pool is pooling
And it's a fast truck, quick fuck
tough luck mud-stuck
lightning struck
and I'll see you there
Cos you wear your shirt with one button undone
and somebody's laughing and I can't say who but
You never did anything to harm
You never did anything to help
You stand up I'll sit you down
Kept under the rug
No trace
On your day off
Seven swans
Six balloons
Five daughters
Four flumes
The worms and the flies come out
Someone else's life
No need to shout
With a mouldable impressionable young man
strangers meet at the festival
I'll see you there and best of all
when we greet the rising sun
Sunken Treasures
You never did anything to harm
You never did anything to help
You stand up I'll sit you down
I'm not gone
Or if I am
I won't be gone for long
I belong here
though I know I won't
be long here
A sudden flush of coral clouds in eastern sky
and I don't follow you fully
the red ink in the pool is pooling
And it's a fast truck, quick fuck
tough luck mud-stuck
lightning struck
and I'll see you there
Cos you wear your shirt with one button undone
and somebody's laughing and I can't say who but
You never did anything to harm
You never did anything to help
You stand up I'll sit you down
