Best Days

Bow Bells say goodbye
To the last train,
Over the river they all go again
Out into leafy nowhere,
Hope someone's waiting out there for them...

Cabby has his mind
On a fare to the sun,
He works nights but it's not much fun,
Picks up the london yo-yos
All on their own down Soho.
"Take me home..."

[Chorus:]
Other people wouldn't like to hear you
If you said that these are
The best days of their lives,
Other people'd turn around
And laugh at you
If you said that these are
The best days of our lives.

Trellick tower's been calling...
I know she'll leave me in the morning...

In hotel cells
Listening to dull tones,
Remote controls
And cable moans,
In his drink he's talking,
Gets disconnected,
Sleepwalking back home...

[Chorus]

Other people'd break into a cold sweat
If you said that these are
The best days of their lives,
And other people'd turn around
And laugh at you,
If you said that these are
The best days of our lives...
