TAP TIPPETY TAP TAP

There's a rush of the same shadows
Dashing up the same street
To the same places in the same rain
For the same bus and the same train

And the shadows never stop
And the shadows never walk,
Scurrying, hurrying, the shadows never talk

And the bus is always late
And the train will have to wait
For the signal, for the coach
For that woman with the brooch
Who's left her bag behind

And there's a man who's blind

Tap, tippety-tap-tap

He's a shadow in the street
Tap, tippety-tap-tap

And the world moves on again
Since nothing stays the same

And the rhythm of the day
Picks up it's gonna stay

Just the same

Tap, tippety-tap-tap

Just the same

Tap, tippety-tap-tap

There's a man who's blind
And if you look I think you'll find

Tap, tippety-tap-tap

The blind man's on his way

Tap, tippety-tap-tap,

Even he won't stay (starts getting smaller)

Tap, tippety-tap-tap

In a world that's on the run

(Tap, tippety-tap-tap)

In a world that's gone insane

tap, tippety-tap-tap

It's gonna stay the same
tap, tippety-tap-tap

It's gonna stay the same

tap, tippety-tap-tap

It's gonna stay the same
tap, tippety-tap-tap

It's gonna stay the same
tap, tippety-tap-tap -
Tap tap !
