Lyrics for Mr. Soft

Mr. Soft, turn around and force the world To watch the things you're going through Mr. Soft, believe everything they tell you And be dammed if they'll thank you You paint everything so cruel, Coming on like Mr. Cool; Paint your face and shut the gate, No-one's coming home till late Don't you know, life gets tedious enough Without this extra grudge to bare You, so slow, shift your ideas, make your mind up In a jiffy, let's be fair We'll be taking off tonight, Turn off your eyes and shut the light, You're the most, you're so unreal, We'd all be dead without your spiel! Mr. Soft, go to town and bring the dawn in, In the morning on your way Mr. Soft, put your feet upon the water And play Jesus for the day You begin to hear them mumble, Spot the Starman, rough-and-tumble, Fight the good fight, sling your axe, Watch the speaker lead the packs
