We give ourselves
a beginning a middle and an end
We look for love
and a couple of friends
It's how you see it
It's not what you see
You don't really know much
Just what you believe
Give me something to hold onto
Give me something to keep
You don't have to give it all
Just enough to let me sleep
You don't have to give it all
I gave myself
a beginning a middle and an end
Still look for love
and have a couple of friends
That's how I see it
but it's not what I see
You don't really know me
I'm not what i seem
Give me something to hold onto
Give me something to keep
You don't have to give it all
Just enough to let me sleep
You don't have to give it all
Give me something to hold onto
Give me something to keep
are you half empty
What have they stolen
are you half full
What did they fill you with
Give me something to hold onto
Give me something to keep
You don't have to give it all
Just enough to let me sleep
You don't have to give it all
You don't have to give it all
You don't have to give it all
Just enough to let me sleep
cked down
and they put you first in line
And so you finally ask yourself
just how big you are
and take your place in a wiser
world of bigger motor cars

So Where the hell was Biggles
when you needed him
last Saturday
And where were all the sportsmen
who always pulled you though
They're all resting down
in Cornwall
writing up their memoirs
for a paper-back edition
of the Boy Scout Manual
See there! A man born
