  • She's flying in the face of fashion now
    Seems to have a will of her own
    She's flying in the face of fashion, yeah
    Seems to have it all chromed
    The time was going, so frequently
    She said if I try harder again
    She's flying in the face of fashion now
    Sells the world annually to a friend

    She's singin' world shut your mouth, shut your mouth
    Put your head back in the clouds and shut your mouth
    World shut your mouth, shut your mouth
    Put your head back in the clouds and shut your mouth

    She always used to live so secretly
    I'd be seen in the avenue sound
    And taking on the role of the four winds now
    Having tea there out in the crowd
    She's flying in the face of fashion, yeah
    Seems to have a will of her own
    In lieu of what you're saying so frequently
    She seems to have it all adds up

    She's singin' world shut your mouth, shut your mouth
    Put your head back in the clouds and shut your mouth
    World shut your mouth, shut your mouth
    Put your head back in the clouds and shut your mouth

    World shut your mouth, shut your mouth
    Put your head back in the clouds and shut your mouth
    World shut your mouth, shut your mouth
    Put your head back in the clouds and shut your mouth

    World shut your mouth, shut your mouth
    Put your head back in the clouds and shut your mouth
    World shut your mouth, shut your mouth
    Put your head back in the clouds and shut your mouth
    World shut your mouth, shut your mouth
    Put your head back in the clouds and shut your mouth
    World shut your mouth, shut your mouth
    Put your head back in the clouds and shut your mouth Writer/s: JULIAN COPE
