Lyrics

I decree today that life is simply taking and not giving England is mine, and it owes me a living Ask me why, and I'll spit in your eye Oh, ask me why, and I'll spit in your eye But we cannot cling to the old dreams anymore No, we cannot cling to those dreams Does the body rule the mind, or does the mind rule the body? I don't know Under the iron bridge, we kissed And although I ended up with sore lips It just wasn't like the old days anymore No, it wasn't like those days Am I still ill? Oh, oh, oh Am I still ill? Oh, oh, oh Does the body rule the mind, or does the mind rule the body? I don't know Ask me why, and I'll die Oh, ask me why, and I'll die And if you must go to work tomorrow Well, if I were you I wouldn't bother For there are brighter sides to life And I should know because I've seen them But not often Under the iron bridge, we kissed And although I ended up with sore lips It just wasn't like the old days anymore No, it wasn't like those days Am I still ill? Oh, oh, oh Oh, am I still ill? Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
