Artist: xtc
Song: all of a sudden
What can I say?
Why do we starve a thing
Thats near extinction?
From day to day
These weeds of fear
Are choking our conviction
Life's like a jig-saw
You get the straight bits
But there's something missing in the middle
All of a sudden
We find the cupboard bare
All of a sudden
We find heaven's not there
All of a sudden
We find the sun's gone cold
All of a sudden
We find we're more than old
All of a sudden
We find that we've lost love
Please don't push or shove because
It's too late, it's too late
In all your hurry
You've accidentally locked the gate
What can we do?
Trying to stem the flow of sand is useless
It's up to you start holding hands
Watch the balance redress
Life's like a firework
You're only lit once
And you must stand and radiate correctly
All of a sudden
We find the cupboard's bare
All of a sudden
We find heaven's not there
All of a sudden
We find the sun's gone cold
All of a sudden
We find we're more than old
All of a sudden
We find that we've lost love
So please don't push or shove because
It's too late, it's too late
In all your hurry
You've accidentally locked the gate
Love's not a product you can
Hoard or pack a suitcase with
It's more a way you have to give
Life's like a jig-saw
You get the straight bits
But there's plenty missing in the middle
All of a sudden
We find the cupboard bare
All of a sudden
We find heaven's not there
All of a sudden
We find the sun's gone cold
All of a sudden
We find we're more than old
All of a sudden
We find that we've lost love
Please don't push or shove because
All of a sudden
We find the cupboard bare
All of a sudden
We find heaven's not there
All of a sudden
We find the sun's gone cold
All of a sudden
We find we're more than old
All of a sudden
We find that we've lost love
In, in, in all your hurry
You've accidentally locked the gates
