Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Confidence is a preference for the habitual voyeur
Of what is known as (Parklife)
And morning soup can be avoided if you take a route straight through
What is known as (Parklife)
John's got brewer's droop, he gets intimidated by the dirty pigeons
They love a bit of him (Parklife)
Who's that gut lord marching?
You should cut down on your pork life mate
Get some exercise
[Chorus]
All the people
So many people
And they all go hand-in-hand
Hand-in-hand through their parklife
Know what I mean?
[Verse 2]
I get up when I want, except on Wednesdays
When I get rudely awakened by the dustmen (Parklife)
I put my trousers on, have a cup of tea
And I think about leaving the house (Parklife)
I feed the pigeons, I sometimes feed the sparrows too
It gives me a sense of enormous wellbeing (Parklife)
And then I'm happy for the rest of the day
Safe in the knowledge
There will always be a bit of my heart devoted to it
[Chorus]
All the people
So many people
And they all go hand-in-hand
Hand-in-hand through their parklife
[Verse 3]
Parklife (Parklife)
Parklife (Parklife)
[Verse 4]
It's got nothing to do with your Vorsprung durch Technik, you know? (Parklife)
(Parklife) And it's not about you joggers
Who go round, and round (Parklife)
And round, and round (Parklife)
[Chorus]
All the people
So many people
And they all go hand-in-hand
Hand-in-hand through their parklife
[Chorus]
All the people
So many people
And they all go hand-in-hand
Hand-in-hand through their parklife
