One of Those Things

You know, recently I was thinking I was thinking about one thing and the other And music crossed my mind Yeah? Yeah It occurred to me to switch on the radio I wanted to hear some music So I turned it on, it was Radio One Sid Jenkins on the air He had synthesizers and soulful guises I think you know the type of thing - Sure It was alright It was OK ? I'm not lodging any complaints or anything There was just one problem What was that? It all sounded the same You mean it all sounded similar? I mean it all sounded the same Anyway, so I started asking around, you know I started making a few enquiries Just putting out a few feelers Yeah? Yeah I had a word with a couple of so called socialists on my way And during the course of our conversation I put to them a question, I said: "How do you feel about Ireland?" Ireland? Yeah, Ireland That place, it's just across the sea Oh yeah, I know the place Well they said: "We're for Sandinista, Cuba's militia The PLO, M.P.L.A, Afghanistan and Babylon" They went on and on and on and on And I said: "Alright, Alright But what do you think about Belfast?" And what did they say? Well, their replies were various But they all had one thing in common And what was that? They all sounded the same You mean they sounded alike ? They all sounded the same Well, that's about the size of it What can I tell you? You tell me. I dunno It's just one of those of things What you mean one of 'those' things? Yeah, one of those things
