Let's go for a walk
Let's go out and have fun
Let's shoot our ray guns
Let's swallow space dust
As fast as we can

Let's stay up till dawn
Let's go out and disco
Go where the kids go
Let's draw us in dust
On old caravans

But you won't do the things
I'd like you to
Though you know deep inside that
If you just tried
You'd like them too
And you won't be the way
I'd like you to be
Though I know deep inside that
If you just tried
You'd still succeed
Be my Lenny

You say read a book
You say watch the telly
You say it's Wednesday
That means it's Radcliffe
On Radio One
You say time for bed
You say time for lights out
You say please don't cough
It's getting late and
You're up before dawn

But I won't do the things
You'd like me to
Though I know deep inside that
If I just tried
I'd like them too
And I won't be the way
You'd like you to be
Though you know deep inside that
If I just tried
I'd still succeed
Be your Lenny

I'm going out
All on my own
You never come
Stay in at home
What's the point of going on this way
What you love is just what I hate

You're staying in
All on your own
That's not my way
I have to go
But we've got what it takes, you see
I still love you, and you still love me
But I won't do the things
You'd like me to
Though I know deep inside that
If I just tried
I'd like them too
And you won't be the way
I'd like you to be
Though I know deep inside that
If you just tried
You'd still succeed
Be my Lenny
