some days i see the point

Singer:billy bragg

never saw a meaningful tv advert

i don't think shopping is a metaphor for life

don't waste my time at the gym in the morning

try to keep trim by living my life

wanna feel the wind blowing in my hair

wanna hear the waves crashing on the beach

i'm not seeking easy answers or inner peace

i'm just looking for some release

i want to help to make the world better but i can't do it all on my own

try to keep the lid on my disappointment 'cause cynicism's such a cop out i know

watch the shadows of clouds moving on the hill

open my eyes and drink my fill

on those days that i feel dejected

i come up here for a bit of perspective

gonna follow the path that climbs up through the trees

walk along the cliff top and gaze out to sea

i feel free when i come up here

and if it's clear some days i see the point
