Stand In - Barry Adamson

If you stand in front of me

Don’t you think that I would see?

And the take, it’s mine to wonder

Didn’t you see me by the water?

While you sang your simple song

Right before I slipped down under

If you stand in front of me

Don’t you think that I would see?

And the take, it’s mine to wonder

All the Spanish that you see

Show me one who looks like me

All the places you could plunder

If my standing will agree

They could stand in just for me

And become the new boy wonder

Every grown up has a deed

Da da di di di di di

As you dial they could find you

If you stand in front of me

Don’t you think that I would see?

And the take, it’s mine to wonder

Every man must get along

So say people of the song

But I see rain and I have thunder

When my stand in comes along

Don’t forget to sing a song

Cause to not would be a blunder

In this double fantasy

Always evil without me

But it’s time I knock her under

And you know once you are done

Cause those Japanese are all gone

But you did not fall asunder

If you stand in front of me

Don’t you think that I would see?

And the take, it’s mine to wonder
