Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Now, in the summer
I could be happy or in distress
Depending on the company
On the veranda, talk of the future, or reminisce
Behind the dialogue
Oh, we're in a mess
[Verse 2]
Whatever I intended
I sent you flowers
You wanted chocolates instead
The flowers of romance
The flowers of romance
[Verse 3]
I've got binoculars
On top of Box Hill
I could be Nero
Fly the eagle
Start all over again
I can't depend on these so-called friends
It's a pity you need to defend
I'll take the furniture
Start all over again
Written by: Glen Matlock, John Lydon, Paul Cook, Stephen Jones
