  • Emma tried to run away

    I followed her across the city

    She went out to the Easterhouse

    Because she liked the sound of it

    She didn't have a single penny

    She stuck a finger in the air

    She tried to flag down an aeroplane

    I suppose she needs a holiday

    I put my arm around her waist

    She put me on the ground with Judo

    She didn't recognise my face

    She wasn't even looking

    Laura's feeling just ideal

    Her horoscope was nearly perfect

    She's thinking of something to do

    Because she is The Birthday Girl

    She walked out to the edge of town

    She saw me lying in the park

    She took Emma by the hand

    They've got a lot in common

    I'll leave them to do what they want

    I'll leave them to do what they need to

    I'll go and play with words and pictures

    I'll admit I'm feeling strange

    I'm not as sad as Doestoevsky

    I'm not as clever as Mark Twain

    I'll only buy a book for the way it looks

    And then I stick it on the shelf again

    Now I could tell you what I'm thinking

    But it never seems to do you good

    It's beyond me what a girl can see

    I'm only lucid when I'm writing songs

    This is just a modern rock song

    This is just a sorry lament

    We're four boys in corduroys

    We're not terrific but we're competent

    Stevie's full of good intentions

    Richards into rock'n 'roll

    Stuart's staying in and he thinks it's a sin
    That he has to leave the house at all

    This is just a modern rock song

    This is just a tender affair

    I count three four and then we start to slow

    Because a song has got to stop somewhere
