INTRO:
(Repeat about 12X)
VERSE 1:
Oh you hope to fit, but you're fit to drop
open up the window and
jump into the blue
things could be marvellous
things could be fabulous
VERSE 2:
Oh do you need a push? I'll push you off
open up the window and
jump into the blue
things could be marvellous soon
CHORUS 1:
Oh well these are the days and
this is the life
there'll always be something on your
mind you'll never quite find
won't you ever make your mind up
VERSE 3:
Oh you hate to hit till you hit the top
open up the window and jump into the blue
things could be marvellous,
things could be fabulous soon
CHORUS 2:
Oh well these are the days
and this is the life
there'll always be something on your mind
you'll never quite find
won't you ever make your mind up
now you'll never be sure if this
is the time
if this is the moment the end of the line
you'll never quite find
you used to know but now you've forgotten
MIDDLE SECTION:
You sit there and wait for the phone to ring
when are they gonna call
are they ever gonna call you at all
But then Oh
things could be marvellous
things could be fabulous soon
CHORUS 3:
Oh well these are the days and
this is the time there'll always be
something on your mind you'll
never quite find
won't you ever make your mind up
now you'll never be sure if this is
the time
if this is the moment the end of the
line you'll never quite find
you used to know but
now you've forgotten
A submarine got stuck to the bottom
these are the days so wake up coz
this is the time and you know I'm right
