Captain Sensible Stop The World Lyrics

[Intro: Captain Sensible]
Stop
Stop
Stop
Stop
Woo!

[Verse 1: Captain Sensible]
Well, if I could stop the world in time
I'd stop it right dead in space
And I'd stop it just about the moment that
I ever did see your face
And light it up with a big, big flashbulb
To illuminate the scene
When me and you were fresh and new
And everything was green
The moon shines on the soldier
Out on duty there overseas
And also on his missus
Back home sitting on the milkman's knee
And as I wandered through the woods
Wrapped warm and snug in a scarf
I saw the moon kinda grinning like a white balloon
Could have sworn that I seen it laugh

[Chorus: Captain Sensible, Dolly Mixture]
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)

[Verse 2: Captain Sensible]
You gotta stop it from being paralysed
By things you know it doesn't need
Like other people's missiles, yeah
And other people's greed
And stop it from being torn apart
By pain, cruelty, and war
And how's about trying to stop that thing
From being so easy to ignore?
And if I could spin the world
Through space and stop it dead in time
You know I'd stop it on a mountaintop
That people rarely climb
I'd stop it where we could all be friends
And we could babble on for hours And I'll be down near the sand and the [rockers' ankles?]
'Cause all my friends are getting sour

[Chorus: Captain Sensible, Dolly Mixture]
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus: Captain Sensible, Dolly Mixture]
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
Stop the world (Right now, I'm getting off)
