Lyrics

I clambered over mounds and mounds

Of polystyrene foam

Then fell into a swimming pool

Filled with fairy snow

And watched

The world turn day-glo, you know, you know

The world turned day-glo, you know

Uh oh

I wrenched the nylon curtains back

As far as they would go

Then peered through perspex window panes

At the acrylic road

And watched

The world turn day-glo, you know, you know

The world turned day-glo, you know

Uh oh

I drove my polypropolene

Car on wheels of sponge

Then pulled into a wimpy bar

To have a rubber bun

And watched

The world turn day-glo, you know, you know

The world turned day-glo, you know

Uh oh

The world turned day-glo, you know, you know

The world turned day-glo, you know

Uh oh

The X-rays were penetrating

Through the latex breeze

Synthetic fibre see-through leaves

Fell from the rayon trees

The day

The world turned day-glo, you know, you know

The world turned day-glo, you know, you know

The world turned day-glo, you know, you know

The world turned day-glo, you know

Uh oh
