Lyrics The Teardrop Explodes

The Teardrop Explodes

The Great Dominions

Suddenly

I came to my senses

a night on fire

put out

all traces of feeling

I'm

only concerned with

looking concerned

I don't want to get my laces burned (0,57)

we talked for hours

except for the fainting

we seemed so enchanted

but now

my expression is changing

see

see for yourself I'm

run down by a train

I stand back from a shark attack

and it's all the same

mummy I've been fighting again (4x)

I should have known

you'd seek my opinion

from all over the country

and out

to the great dominions

careful

some of the blunders of history

have been made that way

I'm still stuck in this

pickle jar

on a paper carpet

mummy I've been fighting again (8x
