Lyrics Robyn Hitchcock

Robyn Hitchcock

Ride

You don't have to go anywhere

You don't have to see anyone

All you gotta do in this world

Is ride

All you gotta do is ride

It's the end of a long, hard decade

And before the next long, hard decade

By the end of which a billion creatures yet unborn

Will die

All you gotta do is ride

Love me love me love me love me love me

That's what all the papers say (But they used to be trees)

Hold me hold me hold me hold me hold me

Please don't let me get away

But if you don't love yourself

What's the use in someone else

Loving you?

You don't have to sharpen yourself

You're embedded deep as it is

All you've gotta do in this world

Is ride

All you gotta do is ride

You don't have to worship the chair

You don't have to sleep with a judge

All you've gotta do in this world

Is ride

All you gotta do is ride

Love me love me love me love me love me

That's what everybody say (Everybody but me)

Hold me hold me hold me hold me hold me

Please don't let me get away

But if you don't love yourself

What's the use of someone else

Loving you?

But if you don't love yourself

What's the use of someone else

Loving you?

So put down your hands

Pick up your head

And ride

Sittin' in a carriage in the pouring rain

In Swindon

With an anorak

Better ride on home

Better ride on home

Better ride on home

Better ride on home
