[Verse 1]
The place I love is a million miles away
It's too far for the eye to see
Still it's me at least and you can't come there
No one is allowed at all
[Chorus 1]
Only animals that love me
Will always only ever could-be
Still it's always in the back of my mind
[Verse 2]
The place I love is overgrown now
With beautiful moss and colourful flowers
And goldfish that swim in a pool, there's a small brick wall
With neon lighting controlled by lightning
[Chorus 2]
I'm making a stand against the world
There's those who would hurt us if they heard
And it's always in the back of my mind
[Verse 3]
The place I love is nowhere near here
Not within a yard of those trendy do's
Where dogsbodies pick you up and graciously give you a lift
With cherished thoughts and bitterness
[Chorus 3]
I'm making a stand against the world
There's those who would hurt us if they heard
And it's always in the back of my mind
I'm making a stand against the world
There's those who would hurt us if they heard
And it's always in the back of my mind
