Everybody Loves A Happy Ending — Tears For Fears

Toe the line Toe the line

Wake up your time is nearly over No more the supernova And no action guaranteed

Wake up you've had an operation Ideals above your station Too much reality

Think about the waste of time spending Watching Mother Nature's knees bending Everybody loves a happy ending

Wake up you're on your own agenda Give up the great pretender With baby eyes of green

Wake up you're holding on to nothing You know you're only bluffing As dead as autumn leaves

Think about the waste of time spending Watching Mother Nature's knees bending Everybody loves a happy ending

Don't you just love a happy ending? Oh yeah well so do I And all your love will shine on everyone

The darkness of the day A curse in every way You try to see the light But you don't know why Don't know why

They tell you on the phone To give your God a bone And grow a set of wings like a butterfly

The guarding at the gate Reminds you that you're late You try to take your time But you toe the line Toe the line

The children of the world And daddy's little girl The grass is always green on the other side So stay and breathe new lies

Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up

Wake up, wake up Everything is moving faster than you think (Wake up, wake up) Your pen is running out of ink (Wake up, wake up) Fill up your bath and kitchen sink (Wake up, wake up) They're really kicking up the stink (Wake up, wake up) You've never found the missing link (Wake up, wake up) You should be happy and to think (Wake up, wake up) You're rending members out of sync (Wake up, wake up) And God is whiskered as a wink (Wake up, wake up) Once more are different to the brink
