Oh, but don't mention love I'd hate the strain of the pain again
A rush and a push And the land that we stand on is ours It has been before, so it shall be again And people who are uglier than you and I They take what they need and just leave
Oh, but don't mention love I'd hate the pain and the strain all over again

Oh, but don't mention love No, no, don't mention love
A rush and a push And the land that we stand on is ours Your youth may be gone but you're still a young man So phone me, phone me So phone me, phone me, phone me
Oh, I think I'm in love Oh, I think I'm in love Oh, I think I'm in love, I think I'm in love Urrgh, I think I'm in lerv...
