lyrics
Monday comes stumbling through the door
The elevator smells of coffee and desperation
Can’t see the forest through the war
The boss is waiting where the hell have you been
Where to begin this story...
Just then the sun breaks through the clouds
The band starts playing and we’re laughing out loud
Kites and confetti fall from skies above
Wake up the neighbors - Lucy’s in love
She’s like a doll within a doll
There’s something different, something, can’t put my finger on it
Now when I’m staring at the wall
I see her smiling like a faint silhouette
and I can’t forget about it
Then she appears and lovely music plays
The trees are swinging and the orchestra sways
And as the sun breaks through the clouds above
Standing ovations cause Lucy’s in love
I’ve been waiting all of my life and
staying up late at night anticipating it too
Back up at the attic we’ll shack up - so ecstatic
Umm actually, I choose you
And then the sun breaks through the cold grey clouds
The band starts playing and we’re laughing out loud
Cranes and canaries fill the sky above
Call all the papers - wake up the neighbors!
Then she appears and Roxy Music plays
The trees are swinging and the orchestra sways
A tune so true it moves the crowd so loud above
Standing ovation - Lucy’s in love
The elevator smells of coffee and desperation
Can’t see the forest through the war
The boss is waiting where the hell have you been
Where to begin this story...
Just then the sun breaks through the clouds
The band starts playing and we’re laughing out loud
Kites and confetti fall from skies above
Wake up the neighbors - Lucy’s in love
She’s like a doll within a doll
There’s something different, something, can’t put my finger on it
Now when I’m staring at the wall
I see her smiling like a faint silhouette
and I can’t forget about it
Then she appears and lovely music plays
The trees are swinging and the orchestra sways
And as the sun breaks through the clouds above
Standing ovations cause Lucy’s in love
I’ve been waiting all of my life and
staying up late at night anticipating it too
Back up at the attic we’ll shack up - so ecstatic
Umm actually, I choose you
And then the sun breaks through the cold grey clouds
The band starts playing and we’re laughing out loud
Cranes and canaries fill the sky above
Call all the papers - wake up the neighbors!
Then she appears and Roxy Music plays
The trees are swinging and the orchestra sways
A tune so true it moves the crowd so loud above
Standing ovation - Lucy’s in love
