Prefab Sprout

Life Of Surprises

You can keep the good times righteousness

The best parting line

Rather than pretend we are A-1 ultrafine

Shall I be the first then to say what we have found

There's something in our lifetime won't let us settle down

Darling it's a life of surprises

It's no help growing older or wiser

You don't have to pretend you're not crying

When it's even in the way that you're walking

Never let your conscience be harmful to your health

Let no neurotic impulse turn inward on itself

Just say that you were happy, as happy would allow

And tell yourself that that will have to do for now

Darling it's a life of surprises

It's no help growing older or wiser

You don't have to pretend you're not crying

When it's even in the way that you're walking - baby talking

Never say you're bitter jack

Bitter makes the worst things come back

Darling it's a life of surprises

It's no help growing older or wiser

You don't have to pretend you're not crying

When it's even in the way that you're walking - baby talking

Never say you're bitter jack

Bitter makes the worst things come back

Darling it's a life of surprises

It's no help growing older or wiser

You don't have to pretend you're not crying

When it's even in the way that you're walking
