Lyrics

Shopping Trolley

I've been reeling home

A broken shopping trolley

Wheels on the wrong

How come wisdom

Came on strong

But it's too late to be done

Words are but dust of stars

When they collide

I get lost in the sparks

Explode into the dark

And move like light on the sea

I think I'm gonna cry

But I'm gonna laugh about it

All in time

I know I'm gonna cry

But I'm gonna laugh about it

All in time, all in time

My head's hanging so low

I'm kicking it

When I walk down the road

And all your words explode

Employ the search light to see

I think I'm gonna cry

But I'm gonna laugh about it

All in time

I know I'm gonna cry

But I'm gonna laugh about it

All in time, all in time

It takes me unawares

All the magic that hides

Inside your stares

Always one more peak to climb

It really seems there is no finishing line

I think I'm gonna cry

And I'm gonna laugh about it

All in time

I know I'm gonna cry

But I'm gonna laugh about it

All in time, all in time

All in time, all in time

All in time, all in time
