The World and Her Mother - XXV
Take it back to the decades when we weren't naughty
Don't you worry, karma will be with you shortly
You've walked on broken glass just to get back home
A heart of gold and a raver's soul
If we're gonna do this thing, let's do it properly
I can and I will, just watch me
There's nothing under this new moon that's gonna shock me
The world and her mother couldn't stop me
I am the beat, I am the drug
When I thought I wasn't, I was
The grass is greener 'cause it's fake
Old too soon, wise too late
If we're gonna do this thing, let's do it properly
I can and I will, just watch me
There's nothing under this new moon that's gonna shock me
The world and her mother couldn't stop me
Thank you, St. Jude
I'll take it from here
Close your eyes, clear your heart
It dissipates then disappears
If that's what it takes
Then that's what it takes
If that's what it takes
Then that's what it takes
If we're gonna do this thing, let's do it properly
I can and I will, just watch me
There's nothing under this new moon can shock me
The world and her mother couldn't stop me
If that's what it takes
Then that's what it takes
If that's what it takes
Then that's what it takes
Don't you worry, karma will be with you shortly
You've walked on broken glass just to get back home
A heart of gold and a raver's soul
If we're gonna do this thing, let's do it properly
I can and I will, just watch me
There's nothing under this new moon that's gonna shock me
The world and her mother couldn't stop me
I am the beat, I am the drug
When I thought I wasn't, I was
The grass is greener 'cause it's fake
Old too soon, wise too late
If we're gonna do this thing, let's do it properly
I can and I will, just watch me
There's nothing under this new moon that's gonna shock me
The world and her mother couldn't stop me
Thank you, St. Jude
I'll take it from here
Close your eyes, clear your heart
It dissipates then disappears
If that's what it takes
Then that's what it takes
If that's what it takes
Then that's what it takes
If we're gonna do this thing, let's do it properly
I can and I will, just watch me
There's nothing under this new moon can shock me
The world and her mother couldn't stop me
If that's what it takes
Then that's what it takes
If that's what it takes
Then that's what it takes
