Magazine Gap - Inside The Bubble
INSIDE THE BUBBLE
Never let it be said that we were holding back
In going about it our own way
In getting more or less involved
Before we call it a day
Never let it be said that we were haunted
Going at it full tilt
Cos so many earthly pleasures
Come with an admission of guilt
Chorus:
Don’t wanna offend or cause no trouble
Just getting by on a ‘need-to-know’
It’s what life is like inside the bubble
Mind how you go
We don’t do anything by half
So why light fires to lift the haze?
We’ll take our turn on the stand
And tiptoe our way through the maze
Chorus
