Lyrics Split Enz – For You

We’re outside the times
Seen the break of day
My parents beat me ’cause I laughed
or something like that

Blueboys on the stage
yes he’s quite the rage
His parents loved his blue eyes
He knows where it’s at
People think he’s queer
But to be quite fair
You know he does it just for you
For you, for you, just for you

You laugh so easily, but I can see what’s it like to be
They kicked your eyes in at four
when they shut the door
Playing out masquerade
Even soldiers on parade
The game they play is just for you
For you, for you, just for you

Took me by surprise, left me standing there
The cold winds blew while you watched Fred Astaire
He was dancing all alone, up the stairs
dancing all alone, up the stairs

Took me by surprise, left me standing there
The cold winds blew while you watched Fred Astaire
He was dancing all alone, up the stairs

We’re outside the times
Seen the break of day
My parents beat me ’cause I laughed
They must of done it just for me
Just for me ooh just for me
