Genesis : Abacab (single)
Lyrics
1. ABACAB
Look up on the wall, there on the floor
Under the pillow, behind the door
There's a crack in the mirror
Somewhere, there's a hole in a window-pane
Do you think I'm to blame
Tell me do you think I'm to blame
When they do it you're never there
When they show it you stop and stare
Abacab isn't anywhere
Abacab
If you're wrapping up the world
Cos you've taken someone else's girl
When they turn on the pillow
Even when they answer the telephone
Don't you think they'll find out
Tell me don't you think they'll find out
When they do it you're never there
When they show it you stop and stare
Abacab isn't anywhere
Abacab doesn't really care
You want it, you've got it, you've got to go
You want it, you've got it, well now you know
It's an illusion, it's a game
A reflection of someone else's name
When you wake in the morning
Wake and find you're covered in cellophane
Well, there's a hole in there somewhere
Yeah there's a hole in there somewhere
Baby, there's a hole in there somewhere
Now there's a hole in there somewhere
When they do it you're never there
When they show it you stop and stare
Abacab isn't anywhere
Abacab
2. ANOTHER RECORD
It's funny you know
Cos there's an old rock 'n' roller
He's got nowhere to go
Did you ever think of taking him in
Somebody help me, somebody please
Put another record on
Cos he likes that song
It's funny you know
He's never done nothing, done nobody wrong
Did he think about changing his name
I'm gonna tell him, it's the same old game
Put another record on
Round, round and round
See him smile
Lately I've seen him
Walking down the street, kinda moving his feet
Everyone I know looks the other way
Somebody help him, somebody say
Put another record on
Cos he likes that song
It's funny you know
Cos there's an old rock 'n' roller
He's got nowhere to go
Did you ever think of taking him in
Somebody help him, somebody please
Just put another record on
