lyrics

It was a tricky situation
But what could you've done?
Those monolithic structures
Had a life of their own

You gravitated nowhere
The ground beneath was soft
You needed some adventure
Anything at all

You dreamt of destruction
Fire all around
Your blood was boiling hot
But you could make no sound

The concrete was concrete
Circa 1962
And you had to be discrete
What else could you do, do, do?

Watch that umbrella
You're not Cinderella
No matter what the weather
The other side is better

It was a tricky situation
But what could you've done?
Those monolithic structures
Never come undone

The concrete was concrete
Circa 1962
And you had to be discrete
What else could you do, do, do?

Watch that umbrella
You're not Cinderella
No matter what the weather
The other side is better

Watch that umbrella
You're not Cinderella
No matter what the weather
The other side is better
