Someone searched for the lyrics to "Four Minute Warning" by Mark Owen, and since James often works these things out (and since I like the song because it kind of tells a story), I've decided to oblige. ;)
I reckon it's right, pretty much!
Four minutes left to go, is this the end, then?
Message on your stereo, four minute warning.
Everybody wants to know, what should we do, then?
A few short stories, a four minute warning.
Sasha stands in his yellow cafe,
The heart of the city is here, so he tells me,
Sitting on his red leather sofa, he's rolling another,
Man, I'll see you when I see you.
Polly is set to be the next big thing,
In her high heeled boots, and her two inch earrings,
Heart of glass, Blondie, sings in her ear,
You're a rock queen honey and we all hear you! (Come on!)
Three minutes left to go, is this the end, then?
Message on your stereo, four minute warning.
Everybody wants to know, what should we do, then?
A few short stories, a four minute warning.
Lucy had a hard time with love,
But love recently chose the right time for Lucy,
Loving when you know it's the final time,
She now holds time in her own mind.
Yeah, Jimmy's is the local for Michael,
A Guinness in one hand, in the other a fable, able,
I once asked are you a lonely man?
His reply was non-commital, 'I am what I am, man!"
Two minutes left to go, is this the end, then?
Message on your stereo, four minute warning.
Everybody wants to know, what should we do, then?
A few short stories, a four minute warning.
Cry, laugh, fear, love, peace, panic,
These are your four minutes.
I'm counting it down,
Four minutes of sound,
It's always a rush when you're around.
The final story is one of me,
Who with four minutes left has used up three,
I think of you, I think of me,
Then I think of nothing, it's the end you see, yeah!
One minute left to go, is this the end, then?
Message on your stereo, four minute warning.
Everybody wants to know, what should we do, then?
A few short stories, a four minute warning.
What would you do, yeah?
With a four minute warning, a four minute warning...
I'm fading away, I'm fading away, if anybody wants to know...
