So You'd Like To Save The World - Lloyd Cole

so you’d like to save the world

i suggest you take one person at a time

and start with me not an ordinary girl

not someone that i should hit upon

and ask, «hey what’s your sign babe»

have you been reading my mind

(what did you find)

nothing more or less terrestrial

could i keep you in mind

did you really cry

when you saw the hole in the sky

did you really hold your head and hide your eyes

well that’s all right

you might call it ultraviolet radiation

it’s only sunlight

so you’d like to save my world

if you could free my inner child

then i could free your inhibitions babe

or would you like to mother me i love the way you wear

that motorola generation chic mama

have you been reading my mind

(what did you find)

nothing more or less terrestrial

could i keep you in mind

did you really cry

when you saw the hole in the sky

did you really hold your head and hide your eyes

well that’s all right

you might call it ultraviolet radiation

it’s only sunlight (sha la la sunlight)

ah yes it is (sha la la sunlight)

ah yes it is now (sha la la sunlight)

it’s only sunlight

you might call it ultraviolet radiation

so you’d like to save the world

i’d really like to help you

i’d really like to be you for a while

is that all right

and i could call it ultraviolet radiation

it’s only sunlight (sha la la sunlight)

don’t you know (sha la la sunlight)

it’s only sunlight (sha la la sunlight)

it’s only sunlight

but you might call it ultraviolet radiation
