CCome and play the tunes of glory - raise your voice in celebration
of the days that we have wasted in the cafe in the station
and learn the mFeaning of existence in foDmrtnightly instalments.
Come shCare this golden age with me in my single room apartment
and if it aGll amounts to nothing - it doesn't mFatter,
these are stGill our glory dCays.
COh my face is unappealing and my thoughts are unoriginal.
and FI used to do the I Ching but then DmI had to feed the meter.
Now I can't Csee into the future but at least I can use the heater.
Oh it doGesn't get much better than this
'cos thFis is how we lGive our glory dCays.
COh I could be a genius if I just put my mind to it
Oh we were brFought up on the Space-Race, now they expect Dmyou to clean
When you've sCeen how big the world is, how can you make do with this?
If you want Gme I'll be sleeping in -
sleepFing in throughGout these glory daCys.G

ThDese glory days can take their toll, so catch me now before I turn to gold.
Yeah we'd lGove to hear your story just as lEmong as it tells us where we are,
