Well wood burns And metal rusts So darling what will become of us? When the weather turns And they say it must We'll need coats for the both of us But the wool is thin And it's full of holes And there's no heat in this abandoned bus So will we go alone Out on our own Oh darling what will become of us? Well boats sink into the sea And aeroplanes crash like computer screens And signals fail And trains derail And car bonnets crumple like magazines Till they're in a pile Like stacks of tiles In a yard full of fridges and broken stuff So will we go alone Out on our own Oh darling what will become of us? We will bite our noses off To spie our faces Both of us Will rust like metal fences in the rain You will pour the gasoline And I will spark the matches We will burn within our fire We will burn within our flame Well yeast ferments And milk sours When it's out of the fridge for too many hours Well we'll ement In separate towers Never knowing if we're brave or if we're cowards And if we pour cement down this hole of ours Well we'll be stuck under stones and flowers Will we go alone Out on our own Oh darling that's what will become of us --- .
