Lyrics


A Very British Earthquake

Alexander, you're really getting on my nerves
Alexander, thinking 'some things in this world you just don't mess with
You're telling me that she's one
And she's way too advanced for you

It's more fun out of the shallow end, believe me
The night is young; you can only prove me wrong
Alexander and a very British earthquake

Cleopatra, you've seen the way he looks at you
Cleopatra, I know you could have the pick of the whole football team
But he's got songs in his head, and you know he makes you smile

Don't go listening to the other girls, believe me
The night is young; you can always prove them wrong
Cleopatra and a very British earthquake

Is the thought of looking foolish worse than living with regret?
Is it so hard to switch off the autopilot?
Don't worry if the ground beneath you shakes

Alexander, Cleopatra and a very British earthquake
