Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Please, please, please be upstanding
Please, please, please be upstanding
Please, please, please be upstanding now
[Verse 2]
We've been together twenty years
The passions never disappear
Then things started to regress
Undoin' all my eagerness
I knew other men had felt like me
Sinking down in misery
[Verse 3]
Please, please, please be upstanding
Please, please, please be upstanding
Please, please, please be upstanding now
[Verse 4]
My manhood took a silent blow
I thought I had no place to go
We sat up talking all night long
The tactile mood remaining strong
She took me gently by the hand
Together we devised a plan
[Verse 5]
Please, please, please be upstanding
(Please be upstanding)
Please, please, please be upstanding
(Please be upstanding)
Please, please, please be upstanding
Oh, now
[Verse 6]
Please
(Please, please, please be upstanding)
Please be upstanding
(Please, please, please be upstanding)
Please be upstanding
(Please, please, please be upstanding)
Get out now
[Verse 7]
The doctor saw me and was not surprised
The tests came back and I was lost inside
In the image was a darkened shape
(What it might be, that's what scares me)
They gave me pills to take, the tables turned
The side effect was just a gentle burn
I felt scared as I laid awake
[Verse 8]
We understand each other's fears
We've always been there down the years
The prospect of another night
Waking up and holding tight
Trying to balance in midair
With nothing but a dribble there
[Verse 9]
Please, please, please be upstanding
Please, please, please be upstanding
(Please be upstanding)
Please, please, please be upstanding
Oh, now
[Verse 10]
Please
(Please, please, please be upstanding)
Please be upstanding
(Please, please, please be upstanding)
Please be upstanding
(Please, please, please be upstanding)
Get up now
