Andrew
[Chorus]
Ooh, it's a thorn in your side
Oh, take it in your stride
Oh, now it's only your pride
Andrew
Ooh, it's heavy as stone
Oh, it's a truth well known
You've got to do it alone
Andrew
[Verse 1]
Hollow and empty
You don't feel like you used to
The horn of plenty
You've got to play it now
You'll never be ready
But they can't wait forever
They'll take what you give them
You'll give it somehow
[Chorus]
Ooh, it's a thorn in your side
Oh, take it in your stride
Oh, now it's only your pride
Andrew
Ooh, it's heavy as stone
Oh, it's a truth well known
You've got to do it alone
Andrew
[Verse 2]
Conquer the concrete
Idealize the ivy
Run through the rosebush
Onto the well-tended lawn
The world in the evening
Light from an upper window
Two shadows crossing
A rugby field
[Outro]
Andrew
Andrew
Andrew
Oh, Andrew
Ooh, it's a thorn in your side
Take it in your stride
Oh, it's only your pride
Andrew
