Perseverence

[00:18.36] I was high on a Molotov of cocktails,
[00:20.16] I was low on a hundred things,
[00:21.61] I was wrong to put my money where my mouth was,
[00:23.74] I was right about the whales and the dolphins,
[00:25.42] Whales and dolphins, whales and dolphins, yeah.
[00:32.57] And I don't mind preserving time at all.
[00:39.31] I was blue about the people in the power,
[00:42.25] I was green that's my excuse,
[00:43.98] I was yellow when they said to fight the reds,
[00:45.83] 'Cos I knew I'd be beaten black and blue,
[00:48.49] Black and blue, battered and bruised, yeah.
[00:53.15] Hold the line, just give it some time then (call)...
[00:56.56] "Cor", what I like and what I hate about perseverance,
[01:04.72] Ooh, what I'd give and what I'd take for perseverance.
[01:15.49] I was round and about in the area,
[01:17.37] I was wearing my suit and tie,
[01:18.99] I was lost in the Bermuda triangle,
[01:20.72] It all went pear-shaped, twisted and twined,
[01:22.50] Twisted and twined, twisted and twined, yeah.
[01:29.52] And I don't mind preserving time at all.
[01:37.19] Hold the line, just give it some time then (call)...
[01:40.76] "Cor", what I like and what I hate about perseverance,
[01:47.82] Ooh, what I'd give and what I'd take for perseverance.
[02:12.43] I was lost on the road to nowhere,
[02:17.96] I was a guest on a runaway train,
[02:20.00] I was happy 'cos I knew I was innocent,
[02:21.51] They were glad to let me take the blame,
[02:23.65] Taking the blame, taking the blame, taking the blame,
[02:28.40] It's always the same 'cos
[02:30.45] I... what I like and what I hate about perseverance,
[02:37.52] Ooh, what I'd give and what I'd take for perseverance,
[02:44.67] I haven't time, I haven't space for perseverance,
[02:51.11] 'Cos I swap and change just when I like to keep up appearance.
