When your girlfriend let you down
Made you the laughing-stock of town
A minor mistake caused major heartache
When your friend forgot to show
And you stood there all alone
A small detail was added to a trail
Of bad affairs
Of people who don't seem to care
But when your heart breaks you feel the sweetest ache
In a riot of colour you see blue
and you'd like the world to tremble for you
Still your eyes may twinkle just like stars
when Ginger's lying flat out on the grass
Put your favourite t-shirt on
and let summer come along
Rejoice in the photograph
of girl in grass
You may be charmed on Saturday
Feel smitten on Sunday
Now monday's here and you're caught by fear
So you hibernate indoors
Spend all day in bed because
Every petty fling seems like the greatest thing
Since bread came sliced
or at least since Bread sang Yours For Life
You want your heart to break to feel the sweetest ache
In a riot of colour you see blue
and you'd like the world to tremble for you
Still your eyes may twinkle just like stars
when Ginger's lying flat out on the grass
Put your favourite t-shirt on
and let summer come along
Rejoice in the photograph
of girl in grass
Now here's a man who understands value in a mustache. Because only a person who takes his 'tache' seriously would cite Bread in his/her song. Cause the way I see it, Bread's 40% songs, 60% mustache. I found myself growing one as I was listening to their songs.
Ha ha, got you, no I did not grow a mustache from listening to some AOR song. That would be ridiculous. I mean, jeez, seriously. Listening, then growing a mustache? That's positively insane.
I grew a new layer of armpit hair and my pubes curled.
That's the truth. Pfft ... mustache.
