Lyrics
0:17When its pop goes the weasel,
0:19let go of the easel
0:21You dont want this rickety rackety life
0:27Its seat of the trousers,
0:29its all sink or swim, son
0:31Id kill to get crimson on this palette knife
0:39And Id steal in a minute,
0:41Im up to here in it
0:43You here behaving as though Im a saint
0:50Get a job with a pension,
0:52dont ever mention
0:54You once had a craving for the brushes and paint
0:59So go, forget it, let it all go, let it all go
1:10Go, forget it, let it all go
1:19Go, forget it, let it all go, let it all go
1:27Go, forget it, let it all go, let it all go
1:51A hack writer judges my swipes and my smudges
1:55He doesnt like pictures with blotches and blots
2:01The drawing room tea set wants horses, sunsets
2:06Sweet nothings, the seaside with yachts
2:13Heres the end of the thirties, no time for arties
2:17Over in Poland, a right old to-do
2:24So go join the navy, the air force or the army
2:28Theyll all be enrolling young fellows like you
2:34So go, forget it, let it all go, let it all go
2:44Go, forget it, let it all go
2:53Go, forget it, let it all go, let it all go
3:01Go, forget it, let it all go, let it all go
3:25These are not my decisions, flaming visions
3:30Ringing expressions, the clamoring voice
3:35Its volcanic desire, unquenchable fire
3:39It isnt a question of having a choice
3:45Anyway, now Im old but if you wont be told
3:49Youve been created to answer the call
3:55All passion and lust is gonna end in the dust
4:00But youll hang on some government gallery wall
4:05You must go, forget it, let it all go, let it all go
4:15Go, forget it, let it all go
4:25Go, forget it, let it all go, let it all go
4:33Go, forget it, let it all go, let it all go
When its pop goes the weasel, let go of the easel You dont want this rickety rackety life Its seat of the trousers, its all sink or swim, son Id kill to get crimson on this palette knife And Id steal in a minute, Im up to here in it You here behaving as though Im a saint Get a job with a pension, dont ever mention You once had a craving for the brushes and paint So go, forget it, let it all go, let it all go Go, forget it, let it all go Go, forget it, let it all go, let it all go Go, forget it, let it all go, let it all go A hack writer judges my swipes and my smudges He doesnt like pictures with blotches and blots The drawing room tea set wants horses, sunsets Sweet nothings, the seaside with yachts Heres the end of the thirties, no time for arties Over in Poland, a right old to-do So go join the navy, the air force or the army Theyll all be enrolling young fellows like you So go, forget it, let it all go, let it all go Go, forget it, let it all go Go, forget it, let it all go, let it all go Go, forget it, let it all go, let it all go These are not my decisions, flaming visions Ringing expressions, the clamoring voice Its volcanic desire, unquenchable fire It isnt a question of having a choice Anyway, now Im old but if you wont be told Youve been created to answer the call All passion and lust is gonna end in the dust But youll hang on some government gallery wall You must go, forget it, let it all go, let it all go Go, forget it, let it all go Go, forget it, let it all go, let it all go Go, forget it, let it all go, let it all go
