I met Moko jumbie,
He walks on stilts through all saints row
Looking over the brew now, for a possession loss
People sound
No days off
In September, when the sun sets soon now

In you,
It radiates on you
On you
Seven high they're rising
Over on the other side
Of September when the sun sets sooner

Jab jab
Digging out a hole in Westbourne Grove
Tin foil and a lighter, the ship across
Five days on,
Two days off
In September
When the sun sets soon now

In you,
It radiates on you
On you
Seven high they're rising
On you
Over on the other side
Of September when the sun sets sooner

In you,
It radiates on you
On you
Seven high they're rising
Over on the other side
Of September
On you

You can blame me, blame me, blame me, blame me
When the twilight comes, all goes round again
All goes round again
All goes round again
All goes round again
All goes round again

You can blame me, blame me, blame me, blame me
When the twilight comes, all goes round again
All goes round again
All goes round again
All goes round again
All goes round again

Someday's I look at the morning
Trying to work out how I got here
'Cause the distance between us
Is the glamour's cost
Late night on the shop floor
What language was I speaking
Not sure I remember
The thrill and fall
Always in me
Let it go

You can blame me, blame me, blame me, blame me
When the twilight comes, all goes round again
All goes round again
All goes round again
All goes round again
All goes round again

You can blame me, blame me, blame me, blame me
When the twilight comes, all goes round again
All goes round again
All goes round again
All goes round again
All goes round again

On you,
? On you
On you
It's on you
It's on you

You can blame me, blame me, blame me, blame me
When the twilight comes, all goes round again
All goes round again
All goes round again
All goes round again
All goes round again

You can blame me, blame me, blame me, blame me
When the twilight comes, all goes round again
All goes round again
All goes round again
All goes round again
All goes round again

(All goes round again)
(All goes round again)
