'Look Around You'

[inaudible harmonised cries through the wall]

I never got to see myself amount to 
Like an evergreen tree who’s felled for bad news
I remember these streets I dwelt, now sand dunes

Look around 
It’s about to
Look around you 

And touch the ground 
for you have found 
that we can turn this all ‘round

Without a doubt, living in 
what you thought was without 

The living power of a thought 
can turn a world upside down 

I’ve long not felt that four letter word 
(H-O-M-E)
It’ll follow me around 
(H-O-M-E)
I’m leaving Hackney for a while 

I never got the chance to give my life to you
And even in my heart there lives a path to you
So maybe these winds’ll pass and I’ll meet you again

Look around 
It’s about to
Look around 
Do we have to
Look around you

The living power of a thought can turn a world upside down 

La La-La
La La-La
La La La-La-La

La La-La
La La-La
La La La-La-La

“He sees the world spinning ‘round”

La La-La
La La-La
La La La-La-La

La La-La
La La-La
La La La-La-La
