Lately

Lately I seem like another language
Are you in trouble?
are you in trouble again?
And you know how they say
The past is a foreign country
How can we go there?
How can we go where we once went?

Have I been standing here for so long
Nature's found a way of telling you that it was going wrong
So which way do I go to get out of here?
Avoiding land mines, and all the other stuff round here
Replacing Hercules with the heroic sounds of Formby
Remove the tunics touch, stood aside from the putch
Stood aside from history.

Have I been standing here for so long
Nature's found a way of telling you that it was going wrong
Through the Kategaat, maybe Outer Java
Oh did you wonder if these days will stay true?
All through the years, all through the dead scenes
All through the memories, across the memories, melodies, melodies
Have I been standing here for so long?

Nature's found a way of telling you that it was going wrong.
