Lloyd Cole - So You'd Like To Save The World

so you'd like to save the world
i suggest you take one person at a time
and start with me
not an ordinary girl
not someone that i should hit upon
and ask, "hey what's your sign babe"
have you been reading my mind
(what did you find)
nothing more or less terrestrial
could i keep you in mind

did you really cry
when you saw the hole in the sky
did you really hold your head and hide your eyes
well that's all right
you might call it ultraviolet radiation
it's only sunlight

so you'd like to save my world
if you could free my inner child
then i could free your inhibitions babe
or would you like to mother me
i love the way you wear
that motorola generation chic mama

have you been reading my mind
(what did you find)
nothing more or less terrestrial
could i keep you in mind

did you really cry
when you saw the hole in the sky
did you really hold your head and hide your eyes
well that's all right
you might call it ultraviolet radiation
it's only sunlight (sha la la sunlight)
ah yes it is (sha la la sunlight)
ah yes it is now (sha la la sunlight)
it's only sunlight
you might call it ultraviolet radiation

so you'd like to save the world
i'd really like to help you
i'd really like to be you for a while
is that all right
and i could call it ultraviolet radiation
it's only sunlight (sha la la sunlight)
don't you know (sha la la sunlight)
it's only sunlight (sha la la sunlight)
it's only sunlight
but you might call it ultraviolet radiation
