Theme Park Blues

it feels like hydration
it's just the thing found in my youth
because last tuesday
i got a spot of a spot of bad news
a spot of bad news

the next day
sped up the slow lane to blackpool
when we got there
there was always an empty space on the same ride as you
empty seat next to you

it's just there's not much you can do
if you've got the theme park blues
the theme park blues

i can see teenage mothers
feedin their childern fags and candy
what a patriotic feeling
surges up inside for my land of hope and glory
my land of hope and glory

and i wish i could swing round those bends with you
but i've got the theme park blues
theme park blues

it's just that everything is upside down
though you're the one cork screwing round
and rollercoasters aren't held up by screws

the seagull smiles the sun shines down
though i'm the one who has the frown
there's not much you can do for the theme park blues
the theme park blues
theme park blues

no there's not much you can do
no theres not much you can do
no theres not much you can do
if you've got the theme park blues
the theme park blues
the theme park blues
oo oo oo oo
oo oo oo oo
if you've got the theme park blues
