Lyrics Stretch Out and Wait - The Smiths
On
the
high-rise
estate
What's
at
the
back
of
your
mind?
Oh,
a
three-day
debate
On
a
high-rise
estate
What's
at
the
back
of
your
mind?
Two
icy-cold
hands
conducting
the
way
It's
the
Eskimo
blood
in
my
veins
Amid
concrete
and
clay
And
general
decay
Nature
must
still
find
a
way
So
ignore
all
the
codes
of
the
day
Let
your
juvenile
influences
sway
This
way
and
that
way
(this
way)
This
way
and
that
way
(this
way)
God,
how
sex
implores
you
To
let
yourself
lose
yourself
Stretch
out
and
wait
Stretch
out
and
wait
Oh...
let
your
puny
body,
lie
down,
lie
down
As
we
lie,
you
say
As
we
lie,
you
say
Stretch
out
and...
Stretch
out
and
wait
Stretch
out
and
wait
Oh...
let
your
puny
body
lie
down,
lie
down
As
we
lie,
you
say:
Will
the
world
end
in
the
night
time?
(I
really
don't
know)
Or
will
the
world
end
in
the
day
time?
(I
really
don't
know)
And
is
there
any
point
ever
having
children?
Oh,
I
don't
know
What
I
do
know
is
we're
Here
and
it's
Now
So...
stretch
out
and
wait
Stretch
out
and
wait
There
is
no
debate,
no
debate,
no
debate
How
can
you
conciously
contemplate
When
there's
no
debate,
no
debate?
Stretch
out
and
wait
Stretch
out
and
wait
Stretch
out
and
wait
Wait
Wait
Wait
Wait
