Ian Dury - I Believe lyrics

I believe in bottle banks And beauty from within I believe in saying thanks And fresh air on the skin I believe in healthy walks As tonic for the feet I believe in serious talks And just enough to eat That's what I believe Although it seems naïve I believe in Santa Claus To give is to receive That's what I believe I believe in 'Bob-a-Job' And life in outer space I believe an open gob Does nothing for your face I believe in being nice In spite of what you think I believe in good advice And not too much to drink That's what I believe (laughs) Surprising as it seems I believe that happiness Is well within our dreams That's what I believe Although it seems naïve I believe that peace and love Are there to be achieved I believe in being fair St. Pancras station from the air I believe in taking care Moonshine sparkles in your hair I believe in being true In everything you try to do I believe in me and you And I hope you share my point of view I believe in being kind Especially when it's hard I believe an open mind Can show a fine regard I believe that manners make A person good to know I believe in birthday cake And going with the flow That's what I believe As strange as it may be I believe this attitude Is good enough for me That's what I believe Although it seems naïve I believe it simplifies The tangled web we weave That's what I believe That's what I believe That's what I believe That's what I believe That's what I believe That's what I believe (That's what I believe), That's what I believe (That's what I believe), That's what I believe (That's what I believe, That's what I believe, That's what I believe)
