"Desert Inn" lyrics - IAIN MATTHEWS

All the goodness seems to float up on the top
But it takes a while to push its way around
And a place like Desert Inn
Seems to help me keep alive and kicking.

In another time I might be unaffected
If I ever get the chance to be alone
And this little thing of mine
Seems to help me keep alive and kicking.

And I can't run any faster now
It's hard to change your mind
Much harder when you're blind
And you've got no eyes to find what you're doing.

Like the time I was a Roman amphitheatre
And I thought the exercise would do me good
But I had a lot of friends
And they helped me stay alive and kicking.

And I can't run any faster now
It's hard to change your mind
Much harder when you're blind
And you've got no eyes to find what you're doing.

And I got involved in madman spaceship races
As I landed hard it made me look a fool
But I knew my Desert Inn
Was there to help me keep alive and kicking.
And it seems that I'm the only one who's kicking
And I wish that one of you would say you're kicking
And it seems that I'm the only one who's kicking
And I wish, I wish that one of you would say you're kicking
Na, na, na...
