Get away
I'd like to live on an island
Somewhere that's warm and inviting
But not too far away
Come inside
There's lots of wine in the cellar
Make mine a Valpolicella
That's a nice bouquet
I need a place that's out of reach
(Art gallery)
Even the birds have sanctuary
(Art gallery)
I want to walk along the sand
And have no-one bother me

Hello dear
Come up and look at my etchings
I mean the things I've been sketching
Please put those away
Let's make a date
But there's no space in my diary
Thanks to the Sizewell Inquiry
Takes up all my days
I need a place that's out of reach
(Art gallery)
Even the birds have sanctuary
(Art gallery)
I want to walk along the sand
And have no-one bother me

Get away
I'd like to live on an island
But I don't know if I'll find one
Not too far away
I'll pack tonight
Put on events for the locals
Benefits, bingo and socials
Supplement my pay
I need a place that's out of reach
(Art gallery)
Even the birds have sanctuary
(Art gallery)
I want to walk along the sand
And have no-one bother me
Art gallery
Instead of throwing it away
(Art gallery)
They go and put it on display
(Art gallery)
I want to walk along the sand
And have no-one bother me
