The Programme - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

I saw the programme

Man, it gave me déjà vu

All the same grey shades I remember

Clouding up the summer with you

But take a look at that sky

We could have had it

It almost went our way

I've tried the best that I can

But I know what you'll say

(Du-du, du-du, du) It's too late now

(Du-du, du-du, du) We're all played out

So put the phone down

Everything we thought's been said

I'm in an empty room

With the lights out, feeling for a piece of what's left

Then I think of those nights

We could have made it

Almost caught that break

I'm trying the best that I can

That's not what it takes

(Du-du, du-du, du) It's too late now (Oh, wa-ah)

(Du-du, du-du, du, du-du, du-du, du) We're all played out

Maybe the old days

Had to give some ground

If we've gone the wrong way

Stop the car

We can turn it around

We could have had it

It almost went our way

I've tried the best that I can

But I know what you'll say

(Du-du, du-du, du) It's too late now (Oh, wa-ah)

(Du-du, du-du, du, du-du, du-du, du) The clock's run down

(Du-du, du-du, du) We're all played out (Oh, wa-ah)

(Du-du, du-du, du, du-du, du-du, du) It's too late now
