Lyrics Cockney Rebel

Cockney Rebel

Singular Band

Thinking lots of a pretty face

When we were young, such smashing days

We'd pass the time in such a pleasant ways

Happy just to be living, oh yeah

Too many summers controlled our heads

Had not a penny, we softly tread

We fell behind but we always lead them

Listened all the, listened all the, listened all the time to a singular band

Put our resources into one Apollo

We only had to wait and follow

Then swoop around like a possessed swallow

Thinking only of winning, oh yeah

And all the time we're defending ourselves

We brushed aside all the tempting sea-shells

Charging-up like battery cells

Looking all the, looking all the, looking all the time for a singular band

You and me getting everywhere now

On the land and in the air now

Got no worries of getting there now

Consider what we're attempting, oh yeah

And now you have lots of pretty clothes

Many friends and many foes

Looking wonderful but heaven knows

Who will want us, who will want us now we're turning into a singular band?
