Perseverance Lyrics

I was high on a Molotov of cocktails,

I was low on a hundred things,

I was wrong to put my money where my mouth was,

I was right about the whales and the dolphins,

Whales and dolphins, whales and dolphins, yeah.

And I don't mind preserving time at all.

I was blue about the people in the power,

I was green that's my excuse,

I was yellow when they said to fight the reds,

'Cos I knew I'd be beaten black and blue,

Black and blue, battered and bruised, yeah.

Hold the line, just give it some time then (call)...

"Cor", what I like and what I hate about perseverance,

Ooh, what I'd give and what I'd take for perseverance.

I was round and about in the area,

I was wearing my suit and tie,

I was lost in the Bermuda triangle,

It all went pear-shaped, twisted and twined,

Twisted and twined, twisted and twined, yeah.

And I don't mind preserving time at all.

Hold the line, just give it some time then (call)...

"Cor", what I like and what I hate about perseverance,

Ooh, what I'd give and what I'd take for perseverance.

I was lost on the road to nowhere,

I was a guest on a runaway train,

I was happy 'cos I knew I was innocent,

They were glad to let me take the blame,

Taking the blame, taking the blame, taking the blame,

It's always the same 'cos

I... what I like and what I hate about perseverance,

Ooh, what I'd give and what I'd take for perseverance,

I haven't time, I haven't space for perseverance,

'Cos I swap and change just when I like to keep up appearance.
