A ROOM WITH A VIEW AND YOU
AND NO ONE TO WORRY US,
NO ONE TO HURRY US THROUGH THIS DREAM WE'VE FOUND.

WE'LL GAZE AT THE SKY AND TRY
TO GUESS WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT,
THEN WE WE WILL FIGURE OUT WHY THE WORLD IS ROUND.

WE'LL BE AS HAPPY AND CONTENTED AS BIRDS UPON A TREE,
HIGH ABOVE THE MOUNTAINS AND SEA.

WE'LL BUILD AND WE'LL COO -OO-OO-
AND SORROW WILL NEVER COME,
OH, WILL IT EVER COME TRUE, A ROOM ROOM WITH A VIEW.

WE'LL BUILD AND WE'LL COO -OO-OO-
AND SORROW WILL NEVER COME,
OH, WILL IT EVER COME TRUE, A ROOM ROOM WITH A VIEW.
OO-OO, A ROOM WITH A VIEW.

PLACID CREATURE...
STANDING IN YOUR JUNE FIELD."

PLACID CREATURE...
STANDING IN YOUR JUNE FIELD -
WITH ONE MORE DAY OF GRAZING
BEFORE THE SLATTED TRUCK.

AND WHEN IT COMES,
YOU WILL GO WITH QUIET DIGNITY,
ACROSS THE YARD, UP THE RAMP
INTO THE DARK...AHHHHHHH!
PLACID CREATURE...
GOING TO MEET THE FINAL MAN -
WITH NOTHING ON YOUR FACE EXCEPT
THAT FAMILAR BEAUTY.

AND HE WILL EAT YOU,
BECAUSE HE DIDN'T LOOK,
BECAUSE HE DIDN'T LOOK...
HE DIDN'T LOOK.

The Oriental Nightfish
© 1998 MPL Communications  (P.& L.McCartney)
Recorded during the "Band On The Run" sessions

IT WAS A THURSDAY NIGHT,
I WAS WORKING LATE
WHEN I FIRST CAUGHT SIGHT
OF THE ORIENTAL NIGHTFISH.
 
THE COLOURS WERE SWIRLING,
THE ROOM WAS GETTING HOTTER.
I COULDN'T SEE ANYTHING.
 
EMERALD BLUE, PURPLE RED,
I WAS WORKING LATE.
IT WAS A THURSDAY NIGHT,
WHEN I FIRST CAUGHT SIGHT
OF THE ORIENTAL NIGHTFISH.
 
NIGHTFISH.
