Something To Shout About
It’s not just a matter of timeI’ve been here for ages and there’s still no sign
Sometimes I’m full overflowing, sometimes less inclined
It’s not just a matter of time
It’s not just a matter of age
All sorts of good people have been showing me the way
Some are elderly gurus, some are kids at play
It’s not just a matter of age
There’s a shadow hanging over me, it’s making things bleak
There’s nothing that’s causing it, not one thing unique
But I can’t seem to fight it, I just seem so weak
Someone come and pick me up, I’m really up the creek
Chorus
Come and give me something to shout about
Something to make my heart sing
Come and give me something to shout about
Something to cure everything
I need inspiration in my situation
How long have I waited, bored and frustrated
To find what it’s all about?
It’s not just a matter of place
I’m sitting in a wonderland staring into space
Surrounded by beauty on every face
It’s not just a matter of place
The wind in the willows, the birds in the trees
The view down the valley, the unbroken peace
But still nothing’s helping to fight this disease
Someone come and pick me up and try and help me please
It must be a matter of faith
But that’s not much to fall back on in my kind of case
I need some hard evidence before I’m safe
It must be a matter of faith
I know in the rulebook that none of the blessed
Were ever allowed to put the Lord to the test
But that’s what I need to get back onto a crest
So come and work a miracle and then I’ll be impressed
