Is It Any Wonder
The Chameleons UK

On the surface he seems sensible

But underneath the logic is crazy

Like a cat that walks with cruelty

Or a dog that always bites for no reason

I could feel the madness there

But I couldn't see the streets for the houses

And all the lies and fantasies

Were suddenly malicious and dangerous

With every passing day you put me through

What have I done to you?

Is it any wonder that I never close my eyes?

Sisters of normality

Collapse into convulsions of laughter

Knuckle walking animals

Are swaggering and spilling their anger

And they're almost walking upright

As they try to ape the madmen around them

But the slightest, kindest hint of love

Leaves them naked snorting like horses

If that's what's waiting for me on the ground,

I hope I never come down

Is it any wonder that I never close my eyes?

Here in this lullaby

We'll leave them all behind

Thoughtlessly wasting time

We'll be gone in the blink of an eye

Is this really where the story ends

For all those so called friends

Is it any wonder that they think I've lost my mind

If that's what they think then fine

We'll leave them all behind

Is it any wonder?

We'll leave them all behind

Hearing these words of mine

Alternative Lyrics from Marks songbook (Dearest dead days):

On the surface he seems sensible

but underneath the logic is crazy

Like a cat that walks with cruelty

Or a dog that always bites for no reason

I could feel the madness there

but I couldn't see the streets for the houses

And all the lies and fantasies

Were suddenly malicious and dangerous

With every passing day you put me through

What have I done to you?

Is it any wonder that I never close my eyes?

Sisters of normality

collapse into convulsions of laughter

Knuckle walking animals

are swaggering and spilling their anger

And they're almost walking upright

As they try to ape the madmen around them

But the slightest kindest hint of love

Leaves them naked snorting like horses

If that's what's waiting for me on the ground

I hope I never come down

Is it any wonder that I never close my eyes?

Here in this lullaby

We'll leave them all behind

Thoughtlessly wasting time

We'll be gone in the blink of an eye

Is this really where the story ends

For all those so called friends

Is it any wonder that they think I've lost my mind

If that's what they think then fine

We'll leave them all behind

Is it any wonder?

We'll leave them all behind

Hearing these words of mine
