British Invasion
(unreleased song, 1985)
Lyrics by Tori Amos
Verse 1:
I knew you'd come back
For some more of that American Dream
Back in '63 I was
Teething on my Daddy's knee
But your Lonely Heart's Club Band
Ended before we began
To even understand
How to imagine
Chorus:
One if by land
Two if by sea
Three if by video
Ready and waiting
Ah... British Invasion
Ah... British Invasion
Verse 2:
You expect me to believe
That some starch-shirted
Business man
Understood enough to be a
Leader on the Protest Stand
Rock and Roll still plays
But the feling is not the same
Was there really a Penny Lane?
Was I born too late
Chorus:
One if by land
Two if by sea
Three if by video
Ready and waiting
Ah... British Invasion
Ah... British Invasion
Bridge:
Come back
Come back
Chorus:
One if by land
Two if by sea
Three if by video
Ready and waiting
Ah... British Invasion
Ah... British Invasion
