Mother closed the bathroom door You said you've seen it all before When you were sweet sixteen
Daughter don't you get upset You're not too old to learn yet While you are in-between
People you don't seem to care If what you breathe is tin canned air You've got to compromise
Vicar would you like some cake You're sure you're not too bad mistake I think you're in disguise
As I grow older going too far down the road Up St John's Wood where I read on the notice board That God is by my side all the time
Hello God, would you like to take a walk Maybe we can have a talk, maybe I can fix you up Maybe you can send me down, C'mon God, let's go to town
Hello God, would you like to take the train Just relax and stop the rain Stop the rain from pouring down Surely you won't see me wrong C'mon God, you must be strong
You refuse to stop the rain And I refuse to catch the train No need to get excited
Don't blame me for what I do Cause baby I'm fed up with you But somehow feel delighted
As I grow older going too far down the road From St John's Wood where I read on the notice board That God is by my side all the time
Hello God, would you like to take a walk Maybe we can have a talk, maybe I can fix you up Maybe you can send me down, C'mon God, let's go to town
Hello God, would you like to take the train Just relax and stop the rain Stop the rain from pouring down Surely you won't see me wrong C'mon God, you must be strong
