Walks in like he owns the-uh place,
With a smile and a wink on his face
He puts his make-up on for the night,
He thinks it's time to start with the smiles and antics
He grabs your hand tight, tight enough,
But he lets go as soon as he walks in
Naive and soft, you're under a black cloud,
It aint gonna shake unless you make this earthquake

Now raise your head, now raise your head,
To the crowd
Make him cell bound, make him cell bound,
This was full of ifs and buts, so we can't stop the people from turning
This was full of ifs and buts, oh we can't stop the people from turning

Test the water, true colours come out,
I took you to one side and opened my mouth
Need an approach cos his makeup won't stick,
Instead you pulled away fire flinged from an eye
Now you're soft, you're under a black cloud,
It aint gonna shake unless you make this earthquake

Now raise your head, now raise your head,
To the crowd
Make him cell bound, make him cell bound,
This was full of ifs and buts, so we can't stop the people from turning
This was full of ifs and buts, oh we can't stop the people from turning
Yeah oh yeah

Now raise your head, now raise your head,
Make him cell bound, make him cell bound,
This was full of ifs and buts, so we can't stop the people from turning
This was full of ifs and buts, oh we can't stop the people from turning
Turning, yeah oh yeah
Turning
