Theatre of the Absurd Lyrics

My tea turned seven shades darker
As I sit 'n' write these words
And London`s gettin' paler
In my theater of the absurd.
You figured for an evening
And you made it all worthwhile
It`s seldom people have a job
And even rarer that I smile
[Chorus]
Play me some, play me some,
Play me Brixton power
Teach your children to be them
And never ever ours
Play me some, play me some,
Play me Brixton power
Someone took the park away
But they left a lonely flower

And if your songs be classics,
Throw them to the herd
Truth is where they came from
And not this theater of the absurd.
Some say you wanted to play for me
But it`s only what you've heard
That made you want to capture me
In your theater of the absurd.
It was not me, I said myself
And you must do so, too.
I hope you have the strength to stay
When I`ll be watchin` you.
[Chorus]

Oh when I got here back home tonight
Something within me stirred.
Oh it must have been a different kind of play
That touched my theatre of the absurd
Now I`ll be on my way alone
But an interesting thing occurred
See nobody ever shared too much
In my theatre of the absurd
And there I was back in London,
Thought about history
It was just like being in school again
But I felt something movin' in me
Hearin' just a bit of the future,
Oh it's comin' and it`s still blurred
And that`s the only thing worth living for
In my theatre of the absurd.
[Chorus]

(Beautiful)
Play me some, play me some,
Play me Brixton power
Play me some, play me some,
Play me Brixton power
(John, come on)
Play me some, play me some,
Play me Brixton power
Oh, play me some, (Come on, Eric) play me some,
Play me Brixton power
Oh, play me some, play me some,
Play me Brixton power...
