Lyrics
From Your Secret's Safe With Us LP
Woke up in the morning
Raised my head still yawning
Well I was in for a surprise
Stumbled to the mirror
And realised in horror
The face that stared back wasn't mine!
And it seemed to be so strange
This sudden facial change
What do you say?
What do you say?
I'd say it's quite strange
The way I've changed since yesterday
Went down to the kitchen
Hoping they would listen
But no-one else could see, you see
I could live sans danger
But all night I saw a stranger
A stranger that I knew as me
And now it takes up all my time
This face that is not mine
What do you say?
What do you say?
I'd say it's quite strange
The way I've changed since yesterday
Oh the way I've changed since yesterday
And so I rest my case
I don't want another's face
What do you say?
What do you say?
I'd say it's quite strange
The way I've changed since yesterday
Oh the way I've changed since yesterday
Oh the way I've changed since yesterday
Oh the way I've changed since yesterday
