Romantical Man lyrics

Sarah Siddons overlooking the motorway

Paddington Green certainly isn't what it used to be

Got a feeling, London is calling me

Or could it be that I'm simply trying to run away?

I took the veil, I took the veil at Liberty

And bought a scarf, now I'm fully covered, ya see

But I don't think I can hide my ecstasy

Thinking of you up on Belsize Park, thinking of me

'Cause I'm a roman-, romantical man

Can't be pedantic (if you gotta look it up, the definition)

'Cause I'm a roman-, romantical man

Wish I was sarcastic

But I'm feeling it, like every second

We're all surrounded by shards of glass and not masonry

Perfectly reflecting what we don't wanna see

And the classical critics can't stand a melody

I only ask what brought you to the opera firstly

Mother, can you hear me, I'm calling you!

Mother, can you hear me, I've made it through

But the temperature is rising

The water's high

The forests they are dying

But just for tonight

I'm a roman-, romantical man

Tonight the ship will set sail from the sand

Can't be pedantic (if you gotta look it up, the definition)

Wish I was sarcastic

But I'm feeling it, like every second

Sarah Siddons overlooking the motorway...
