Pass me the suitcase, baby. / I know / it's not that easy
and /
give me / my mirror, love, / just give me / back my
memories, /
and oh, / oh, how many years / is it now Maurice? /


Oo-oo-ooh, / young heart. / 
Oo-oo-ooh, / young heart. / 
Oo-oo-ooh, / young heart. / 
And, ooh, / oh the clown's no good. 


And I was / half-asleep, and / riding / on a slow-coach, I /

think I / lose all these things still, / meaning / I'm not
holy and, oh, / 
oh, your honey-dish, / oh, it's on my list. / 


Oo-oo-ooh, / young heart. / 
Oo-oo-ooh, / young heart. / 
Oo-oo-ooh, / young heart. / 
And, ooh, / oh the clown's no good. 


Wish my heart's wish / climbing out your window / 
for your savage amusement. / 
You put a spell over me, well, / 
smells like lemon flavour. / 


ba-ba-da ba-da ba-ba-ba-da...


Tuesday, / if I had you back again / you know / I'm against
the future. / 
Wednesday, / I was a little girl / (I was the little girl
who'd like to snog your face.) / 
and ooh, / oh, how many years / is it now Maurice? /


Oo-oo-ooh, / young heart. / 
Oo-oo-ooh, / young heart. / 
Oo-oo-ooh, / young heart. / 
And, ooh, / oh the clown's no good. 


Oo-oo-ooh, / young heart. / 
Oo-oo-ooh, / young heart. / 
Oo-oo-ooh, / young heart. / 
Oo-oo-ooh, / young heart. / 
Oo-oo-ooh, / young heart. / 
Oo-oo-ooh, / young heart. / 
And, ooh, / oh the clown's no good. 
And, ooh, / oh the clown's no good. 
And, ooh, / oh the clown's no good. 
And, ooh, / oh the clown's no good. 
And, ooh, / oh the clown's no good. 
And, ooh, / oh the clown's no good. 
(And then I shall go back to Maurice.) / 
And, ooh, / oh the clown's no good.
