Roxy Music - Three And Nine lyrics

(ferry/mackay) You might remember How it used to be 3 and 9 could show you Any fantasy Parti-coloured pictures Now and then 3d No cheap nostalgia Conjured up by me Back to the old days Close to home Show me some new ways I´ll carry on Whether making out or played out Three and nine make twelve I´ve a dozen reasons Lying on the shelf B feature back rows Filed away No point pretending Change is here to stay 3 and 9 to 45 Decimal romance If you´ve warmed to centigrade You stand a sporting chance I´m not so special You´re a misfit too Why must they interfere In everything we do? Should we play safe now Or go all the way? Six and two threes now More i cannot say
