In The Blue Peter Garden (redux)

The sky is purple it’s the end of days

Apocalypse, plus my flight was delayed

Apart from that it’s a beautiful day

For some one like me

Cos I remember a time.

Before the world was computerised

In a place where the sun always shines on young Valerie

In the Blue Peter garden

The sky is blue, but the TV is grey

World of sticky back plastic

Here’s one I made earlier today.

Had no money No stocks and shares.

Weren’t scared of daleks ‘cos they couldn’t climb stairs.

The girls were making a dolls house with chairs

And we said exterminate

A canine coverup a puppy that died

They got another one that looked a bit like

That wasn’t Petra, the BBC lied

A BBConspiracy

In the Blue Peter garden

The sky is blue, but the TV is grey.

World of sticky back plastic

Here’s one I made earlier today.

A baby elephant from London Zoo

She caused a stink she caused a to do.

She made a toilet out of studio two

And trod on Pete Purves feet

A sex change tortoise a white-knuckle ride

We sent in bottle tops and much more besides

And two years later got a dog for the blind

And John Noakes said get down Shep

In the Blue Peter garden

The sky is blue, but the TV is grey

World of sticky back plastic

Here’s one I made earlier today

In the Blue Peter garden

The sky is blue, but the TV is grey

World of sticky back plastic

Here’s one I made earlier today    

In the Blue Peter garden

In the Blue Peter garden

In the Blue Peter garden

In the Blue Peter garden

In the garden of Peter

In the garden of Peter

Inna garda da Petra

In the Blue Peter Garden (Where Everything is Cool)

In the Blue Peter Garden (Where Everything is Cool)

In the Blue Peter Garden (Where Everything is Cool)

In the Blue Peter Garden (Where Everything is Cool

You’re not here today

You’re not here. OK

I know where you are

I can hear you say

Mine

I can feel the way

You breathe as we lay

I know who you are

I can hear you say

Mine

Come home

Come Home

I can hear you stay

You are here to say

I know who we are

I can hear you say

Mine

Come home

Come Home

You’re not here today

You’re not here. OK

It may be just in your imagination
It may be real inside your head
Just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean they’re not out to get you
You haven’t heard a single word I said
You may think this is something you can get away with
But your excuses only fool yourself
Just because you love yourself doesn’t mean we will accept it
You still haven’t heard a word I said

So many questions what I really need is answers
Don’t tell me I have to find them for myself
Just because you’re confused don’t give me that blanked out stare
Find a way to speak to someone else
And if this all means nothing to you
Your selfishness it wears me out
All the crazy things you believe in
Are really nothing like the truth

And if this all means nothing to you
Your selfishness it wears me out
All the crazy things you believe in
Are really nothing like the truth
Nothing like the truth…

Did you ever meet someone who tells you how the world is run?

The expert on all things is here today

Your opinion is what counts as long as it’s in small amounts

And you don’t disagree with what he says

Having found he knows it all, his world has turned out very small

Now there’s nothing new under the sun

Broken dreams abandoned schemes half eaten toast with cold baked beans

He tells me that we all end up the same

In the doctor’s waiting rooms an old gun from the baby boom

The radio plays rock of ages past

Kids don’t know he once was cool with Mott the Hoople on the wall

All the young dudes irritate him now.                

There’s nothing new under the sun now the sun is middle aged

A sad old son gone to seed out of time out of belief

He’s seen and heard it all before this Earth is rotten to the core                    

You’ll get no answers from above flying saucers are for mugs

There’s nothing new under the sun nothing new unless you’re young                

It’s such a drag getting old the sun’s gone down it’s getting cold                    

Who do you love who do you trust who will you turn to when you’re lost

There’s nothing new that I can say we must all repeat till fade

There’s nothing new under the sun now the sun is middle aged

A sad old son gone to seed out of time out of belief

Out of the garden out of love out of faith and out of drugs                      

Speaking in tongues let us pray for somewhere else we all can play

What’s the future in the Sun how’s your day been everyone?

All the young dudes we all must as vacuum cleaners come to dust

There’s nothing left for me to say but I’ll say it anyway

Day and Night, Night and day we must all repeat till fade

(Repeat last line till fade)
