Leipzig Lyrics

Thirty nine and you need some leeway
soon your eying the overseas page
the trains are running late
as you close the garden gate..

Step through your steel-front door frame
"Dinner's in the microwave, sweetie!"

Leipzig is calling you- Henry...
(On the cardboard thoroughfare!)
Leipzig is calling you- James
Leipzig is calling you- Leonard...
(The clouds run parallel!)
Leipzig is calling you names...

Cars were burning on yellow lines
wheels turning, traffic lights change

Another misty bus queue morning
faces smile down from the hoarding
stoop to the bin, drop something in
well you'll soon feel yourself again..

Every place is just the same isn't it?

Leipzig is calling you- Benny...
(From the mouth of the megaphone!)
Leipzig is calling you- James...
Leipzig is calling you- Leonard...
(And other cartoon characters!)
Leipzig is calling you names...

Like the sound of taxi brakes
Like the sound of a dentist drill
The colour of skates on ice under clingfilm

It's calling!
Leipzig is calling you names!
Hear it calling!

Every place is just the same isn't it?

Leipzig is calling you, Benny...
(From the mouth of the megaphone!)
Leipzig is calling you, James...
Leipzig is calling you, Leonard...
(And other cartoon characters!)
Leipzig is calling you names...
