Council Flat Dreaming - a song

All the leaves are brown
And the sky is grey
I went for a walk
On an autumn day
I'd be safe and warm
If in my own flat I lay
Council fla-at dreaming
On such an autumn day

Went through the Church, just me
I stopped along the way
I got down on my bended knees
And I began to pray
Oh the preacher wasn't there
But he knows I'm gonna stay
He knows I'm gonna stay, I told him so
Council fla-at dreamin'

Oh somebody help me now
I wanna go so bad yeah

Cos all the leaves are brown
And the skies are grey yeah
I went for a walk
On an autumn day oooohhhhhhhh
I'd be safe and warm
If in my own flat I lay
Council fla-at dreaming
On such an autumn day
Such an autumn day
On such an autumn day yeah, yeah, woahh

Council fla-at dreaming
Council fla-at dreaming
Gotta, gotta, gotta get some sunshine
I've gotta clear my mind
Council flat dreaming
Council flat dreaming
Ohhhh gotta get one
Council fla-at dreaming ohhhhhh
Council fla-at dreaming
Where I wanna lay
Get some sunshine everyday
Council fla-at dreaming
Ohhhhhhh.......
