Dexys Midnight Runners - One Of Those Things

You know, recently I was thinking
I was thinking about one thing and the other
and music crossed my mind Yeah Yeah
It occurred to me to switch on the radio
I wanted to hear some music
So I turned it on, it was Radio One
Sid Jenkins on the air
He had synthesizers and soulful guises
I think you know the type of thing Sure
it was alright It was OK
I'm not lodging any complaints or anything
there was just one problem
What was that
It all sounded the same
You mean it all sounded similar
I mean it all sounded the same
Anyway, so I started asking around, you know
I started making a few enquiries
just putting out a few feelers
Yeah Yeah
I had a word with a couple of so called socialists on my way
And during the course of our conversation
I put to them a question, I said
How do you feel about Ireland
Ireland Yeah, Ireland
That place, it's just across the sea
Oh yeah, I know the place
Well they said
We're for Sandinista, Cuba's militia
the P L O, MPLA, Afghanistan and Babylon
They went on and on and on and on
And I said Alright, Alright
but what do you think about Belfast
And what did they say
Well, their replies were various
but they all had one thing m common
And what was that
They all sounded the same
You mean they sounded alike
They all sounded the same
Well, that's about the size of it
what can I tell you You tell me I dunno
It's just one of those of things
What you mean one of 'those' things
Yeah, one of those things
