You were doing nothing I thought I'd try it You said if you stand still for long enough It all goes quiet But it all got louder And you soon get tired Just standing up Because if you stand still for long enough you just get stuck And you could find a way to walk And you could think you're walking nowhere But if you look you're heading straight for cloud eight And if you never have the time And never get to see cloud nine There's a place where you can wait on cloud eight You were saying nothing Didn't say a word You said if you shut up for long enough The more you heard But you hear nothing Didn't hear a word And you soon get bored Because if you shut up for long enough you just get ignored And you could find a way to walk And you could think you're walking nowhere But if you look you're heading straight for cloud eight And if you never have the time And never get to see cloud nine There's a place where you can wait on cloud eight You do a lot of nothing much And I wish you luck Because if you stand still for long enough You just get stuck
