Can you just imagine being buried alive?
Until you've tried it how can you tell?
Can you just imagine having breakfast at five?
Until you've tried it how can you tell?
Did you put on a clever disguise?
Let the camera roll through your eyes?
Then you tell it the way that it really is, and we did
We did, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Can you just imagine being there on the screen?
Until you've tried it how can you tell?
Can you understand that someone had to come clean?
It goes to show you never can tell
Oh, did you put on a clever disguise
And let the camera roll through your eyes?
Did you tell it the way that it really is? And we did
Oh yeah, we did, did, did, did, yeah, yeah, yeah, yay
No, you don't have to mention no names
There are some of us old just the same
Then you tell it the way that it really is, and we did
Oh yeah, we did, did, did, did, yeah, yeah, yeah, yay
Did you realise it's not all rosy and gay?
Until you've tried it how can you tell?
Well if you're hard of hearing, better keep well away
Until you've tried it how can you tell?
Did you put on a clever disguise?
Then let the camera roll through your eyes?
Then you tell it the way that it really is, and we did
Oh yeah, we did, did, did, did, yeah, yeah, yeah, yay
There's a sweet magnolia blossom going round everybody's door
Do your friends keep eating faster, a-keep a-coming back for more?
Ooh-de-de-de-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-ooh
