Lyrics

Open Sesame
(We′ve places to go)
We've people to see(Let′s put 'em on hold)

There's all sorts of shapes, that I bet you can make
When you want to escape say the word
Well, I know that getting you alone isn′t easy to do
With the exception of you I dislike everyone in the room
And I don′t wanna lie, but I don't wanna tell you the truth

Get the sense that you′re on the move
And you'll probably be leaving soon, so I′m telling you

Stop the world, 'cause I wanna, get out with you
Stop the world, ′cause I wanna, get out with you

Eyes the colour of
(Water left in mud)

Icing sugar dust
(Crazy green flashes)

It's a funny thing, that I cannot explain
Don't you know the train keeps a rolling?
Stop the world, ′cause I wanna, get out with you
Stop the world, ′cause I wanna, get out with you

Well I know that getting you alone isn't easy to do
And I don′t wanna lie, and I don't wanna tell you the truth
And I know we got places to go, we got people to see
Think we both oughta put ′em on hold and I know you agree
Stop the world, 'cause I wanna, get out with you
Stop the world, ′cause I wanna, get out with you
