Mr Soft, turn around and force the world

 To watch the things you're going through

Mr Soft, believe everything they tell you

 And be damned if there’s a ‘thankyou’

You paint everything so cruel

Coming on like Mr Cool

Paint your face and shut the gate

 No-one's coming home till late

Ooh-la!... Cha

Don’t you know, life gets tedious enough

Without this extra grudge to bear

You so slow, shift your ideas, make your mind up

In a jiffy, let's be fair

We'll be taking off tonight

Turn off your eyes and shut the light

You’re the most, you’re so unreal

We'd all be dead without your spiel!

Ooh la! Uh, take it!

Solo

Mr Soft, go to town and bring the dawn in

In the morning, on your way

Mr Soft, put your feet upon the waters

And play Jesus for the day

And you begin to hear them mumble

Spot the Starman, rough-and-tumble

Fight the good fight, sling your axe

Watch the speaker lead the packs

Ooh! Here we go again...
