Mother closed the bathroom door
You said you've seen it all before
When you were sweet sixteen
Daughter don't you get upset
You're not too old to learn yet
While you are in-between
People you don't seem to care
If what you breathe is tin canned air
You've got to compromise
Vicar would you like some cake
You're sure you're not too bad mistake
I think you're in disguise
As I grow older going too far down the road
Up St John's Wood where I read on the notice board
That God is by my side all the time
Hello God, would you like to take a walk
Maybe we can have a talk, maybe I can fix you up
Maybe you can send me down
C'mon God, let's go to town
Hello God, would you like to take the train
Just relax and stop the rain
Stop the rain from pouring down
Surely you won't see me wrong
C'mon God, you must be strong
You refuse to stop the rain
And I refuse to catch the train
No need to get excited
Don't blame me for what I do
Cause baby I'm fed up with you
But somehow feel delighted
As I grow older going too far down the road
From St John's Wood where I read on the notice board
That God is by my side all the time
Hello God, would you like to take a walk
Maybe we can have a talk, maybe I can fix you up
Maybe you can send me down
C'mon God, let's go to town
Hello God, would you like to take the train
Just relax and stop the rain
Stop the rain from pouring down
Surely you won't see me wrong
C'mon God, you must be strong
