LEAVE THE SCENE BEHIND

She wrote my name in her diary today again

And now I know how it feels to exist behind the scenes

And I know how it feels to kiss into the dreams

Of a girl who likes to keep it fresh and new

Behind closed doors,

On chequered bathroom floors,

Down mahogany halls

And this is what she said to me;

This is what she said to me:

''If you want to be with me

You've got to leave that scene behind

And if you want to be free

You've got to push your friends aside''

And in the modern school of urban fantasy

Whose best writers include her and me

We get down on our knees and pray to the

Leather-bound black diary

She said ''David, you will always be a baby brother,

David, you will always be your mother's son,

And David, you will always be somebody's favourite pupil,

But you will never be the one that I want''

This is what she said to me;

This is what she said to me

''If you want to be with me

You've got to leave that scene behind

And if you want to be free

You've got to push your friends aside

You've got to push, push, push your friends aside

You've got to leave that scene behind....''
