In the booklet that comes with the jewel case the track is spelled as “Hanging On to Innocence”, whereas everywhere else it’s spelled as “Hanging Onto Innocence”.
[Intro]
Ridin' past the sneezing lady
Cycling man calls
Darling, let me bless you
She smiles back, all teary-eyed
Thanks him kindly
Waving any tissue
[Chorus]
She sings...
Ho-o-o-o-o-o-o!
Praise him
Hanging on to innocence
Ho-o-o-o-o-o-o!
Praise him
For hanging on to innocence
Hanging on to
Innocence...
[Verse 1]
He's back - wheel caught a rimshot
Twitched as wildly as a courting little wagtail
The cycling man did not seem bothered
Who's got time for
Every little detail?
[Chorus]
She sings...
Ho-o-o-o-o-o-o!
Praise him
For hanging on to innocence
Ho-o-o-o-o-o-o!
Praise him
For hanging on to innocence
Hanging on to
Innocence...
[Verse 2]
Helicopters dance like June Berth
That neon traffic with a donning little red sky
Helicopters dance like June Berth
That neon traffic with a donning little red sky
[Pre-Chorus]
O-o-o-o...
Praise him
O-o-o-o...
Praise him
[Chorus]
Ho-o-o-o-o-o-o!
Praise him
For hanging on to innocence
Ho-o-o-o-o-o-o!
Praise him
For hanging on to innocence
Hanging on to
Innocence...
