Lets Pretend by The Northern Pikes Lyrics

Let's pretend that Catholics and Protestants are friends
Let's pretend that everyone is free in East Berlin
My three friends are equal
Though they're never quite the same
Let's pretend that everybody has the same last name
What is your favourite colour?
Is it the same as mine?
Grey, grey, grey, grey, grey
Grey, grey, grey, grey, grey

Let's pretend that man and wife stay true until they die
Let's pretend that children never learn to cheat or lie
My two friends are happy and contented and quite sane
Let's pretend there never was an Abel or a Cain

What is your favourite weather?
Is it the same as mine?
Rain, rain, rain, rain, rain
Rain, rain, rain, rain, rain

Ocean wind making me shiver
Making me come alive
Let's pretend The Beatles never broke up after all
Let's pretend that Jesus came back down to save us all
My one friend is always in my body and my mind
Let's pretend that prisoners are pardoned for their crimes

Who is your favourite uncle?
Is he the same as mine?
Shame, shame, shame, shame, shame
Shame, shame, shame, shame, shame
