The Reflex - Live at Live Aid, John F. Kennedy Stadium, 13th July 1985
You've gone too far this time
And I'm dancing on the valentine
I tell you somebody's fooling around
With my chances on the danger line
I'll cross that bridge when I find it
Another day to make my stand, oh, whoa
High time is no time for deciding
If I should find a helping hand, oh, whoa
Why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it
So, why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it
The reflex is a lonely child
Who's waiting by the park
The reflex is a door to finding
Treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover
Isn't that bizarre?
Every little thing the reflex does
Leaves you answered with a question mark
I'm on a ride and I want to get off
But they won't slow down the roundabout
I sold the Renoir and the TV set
Don't want to be around when this gets out
So why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it
Why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it
The reflex is a lonely child
Who's waiting by the park
The reflex is a door to finding
Treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover
Isn't that bizarre?
Every little thing the reflex does
Leaves me answered with a question mark
Yeah, yeah, yeah
So why-y-y-y-y don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it
Oh, why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it
The reflex is a lonely child
Who's waiting by the park
The reflex is a door to finding
Treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover
Isn't that bizarre?
Every little thing the reflex does
Leaves me answered with a question mark
Oh, the reflex, what a game!
He's hiding all the cards
The reflex is a door to finding
Treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover
Isn't that bizarre?
Every little thing the reflex does
Leaves me answered with a question mark
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oh
(Thank you!)
(Thank you, you people!)
And I'm dancing on the valentine
I tell you somebody's fooling around
With my chances on the danger line
I'll cross that bridge when I find it
Another day to make my stand, oh, whoa
High time is no time for deciding
If I should find a helping hand, oh, whoa
Why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it
So, why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it
The reflex is a lonely child
Who's waiting by the park
The reflex is a door to finding
Treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover
Isn't that bizarre?
Every little thing the reflex does
Leaves you answered with a question mark
I'm on a ride and I want to get off
But they won't slow down the roundabout

Don't want to be around when this gets out
So why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it
Why don't you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, don't lose it
The reflex is a lonely child
Who's waiting by the park
The reflex is a door to finding
Treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover
Isn't that bizarre?
Every little thing the reflex does
