Mike Post Theme

We're not strong enough

We're not young enough

We're not alone enough, or cold enough

Emotionally we're not even old enough



Late at night, we're in a video-game dream

There is no lover in this numbered scene

We summon every childhood ghost we've seen

Then suddenly we hear that Mike Post Theme



Everything is all right

We've prayed today

Everything is okay

We played today



Late at night on the underground train

Through endless suburbs in endless pain

Deep in the tunnel under the London rain

Suddenly we hear Mike Post again



Everything is all right

We prayed today

If there really is a God

We should be laid today



We watch those films that make men cry

Young lovers kiss, then fight and die

We start to yearn, we climb the vine

We have to face the truth some time



We're not strong enough

We're not young enough

We're not alone enough, or cold enough

Emotionally we're not even old enough

For love, for love



But late at night we find the racing tame

We're faced with women and a reality game

We feel alive, we feel new and blind

We're hearing Mike Post in the air this time



Everything is all right

We prayed today

If there really is a God

We should get laid today



There comes a time in every little punk's life

When he has to right a song for his common-law wife

We make our women wait until they wanna scream

But we can always whistle that Mike Post Theme



Everything is all right

We prayed today

If there really is a God

We should get laid today



We watch those films that make men cry

Young lovers kiss, then fight and die

We start to yearn, we climb the vine

We have to face the truth some time
