British Sea Power Please Stand Up Lyrics

Please Stand Up Lyrics

Take me somewhere quiet, please

These motorway exit gates

Are callin' to me dearly and I need a place to go



And even numbers on a timetable

Arrivals and departures and those places, names

Never seemed so strange before



If there's anyone askin', did you get a rush?

There's no point in askin', it wasn't enough

There's nobody else here, so please stand up



If there's anyone askin', did you get a rush?

There's no point in askin', it wasn't enough

There's nobody else here, so please stand up



The occultation of a summer sun

Was burnin' holes in everyone

Defenseless, what was left inside could finally escape



It seemed as if the streets had melted

It seemed as if the air was scented

I wish all of time could be like this



If there's anyone askin', did you get a rush?

There's no point in askin', it wasn't enough

There's nobody else here, so please stand up



Oh, oh, oh my love



If there's anyone askin', did you get a rush?

There's no point in askin', it wasn't enough

There's nobody else here, so please stand up



And then all of a sudden it's all better, better

A little excitement makes us wetter, wetter

Oh, my love again, again, again, again my love
