About the Artist
Lyrics
I put on my raincoat to make it rain And sure enough the skies opened up again I dreamed of you as I walked to the shops You were dancing with the wallies on Top Of The Pops Once in a while Gennadi Gerasimov drops his smile And you can see that his aim's A portfolio pregnant with gains He's been up all night Moving the goalposts Like a jackdaw with a fiery brand Spread the news all over this land Robin Hood and his Merry Men Are never, never, never coming back again I don't believe that love should be pain So would you please rub my back again I think it's safe to leave them in the park Let's blow out the candles and kiss in the dark Heavens above Can this sticky stuff really be love! Don't get dressed yet Not yet We've been up all night Moving the goalposts We've been up all night Moving the goalposts
