We just want a bit of peace And relative quiet Just one batsman at the crease If we could just buy it We never wanted interruptions Never want to run away We just want some Summer's day Lazin' in the backyard All brow beaters go away It's not much to ask Never wanted intervention Never want to run away All God's children say What did they say? They just want heaven on a stick All God's children say What did they say? They just want heaven on a stick We don't need opinion sways Nowhere to run Just wanna see those blue green bays Stand in the sun Never wanted mediation Never want to run away We just wanted lotus eating We just want to fish for cray We never wanted intervention We never want to run away
