But nothing ever happens -

But nothing ever happens -

and I wonder

I wonder whowhenhowwhy I wonder why
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
And all that I can see is just a yellow Lemon tree
I' ( turn) my head up and down
I'm turning turning turning turning turning around
And all that I can see is just another Lemon treeI' ( sit) here

I miss the power
I'd like to go out taking a busshowerdrink
But there's a heavy cloud inside my head
I feel so goodawfulbusytiredannoyed put myself into bed
Where nothing ever happens - and I wonder

Isolation- is not good for me
Isolation- I don't want to sit on a lemon tree
I' (step)
around in the dessert of joy
Baby anyhow I'll get another toy

And somethinganythingeverything will happen - and you'll wonder

Chorus
And I wonder wonder
I wonder howwhowhere I wonder why
Yesterday you told me 'bout the blue blue sky
And all that I can see (x4)
is just another yellow Lemon tree
