HERE I AM IN AMSTERDAM
I LIKE IT HERE THEY SPEAK MY LANGUAGE
EVEN THOUGH IT'S NOT MY OWN
IT'S GOT BBC FOR COMFORT ZONE

BUT BEST OF ALL IT'S GOT MARKS & SPENCERS
EQUALITY FOR THE MASSES NEVER FELT BETTER

SOME OF MY DREAMS
I THOUGHT MAY HAVE COME TRUE
BUT SO HAVE MY NIGHTMARES
WHICH I CAN'T GET THROUGH

AND NOW I'VE LOST THE POWER TO SPEAK
AND NOW I'VE LOST THE POWER TO EAT
IDLE AND OUT OF TOUCH IN EUROPE

NOTHING'S GONE AND NOTHING'S CHANGED
ALL THAT WAS BEFORE WILL STILL REMAIN
IT'S TO LATE TO LEARN A NEW CURRENCY

AND SOME OF MY DREAMS
I THOUGHT MAY HAVE COME TRUE
BUT SO HAVE MY NIGHTMARES
WHICH I CAN'T GET THROUGH
