BW Johnson - Autumn Leaf Lyrics

Woke up this morning
Kicked through the rubbish
To the very edge
Of all the tall towers
Beautiful spaceships
Demolished and rebuilt again
Repeat and renew
Survive the boredom
With these new billboard stands
Pedestals for products
Our insatiable conduct
Edible despair

Shut-eye

I met an alien clique
On a tube train
Shouting about nothing
Nothing but the different colours
Of their showy socks, belts and things
Don't take me away
Please let me stay

Wanna be free of these chains that deplete us?
Wanna float on the breeze and go up to meet
The salvation stars
And the judgemental lights?
Then lighten yourself like an autumn leaf
