Song Lyrics

I need a second just to catch my breath
I need a second wind to blow my wad
I'll play the second fiddle second best oh
Shang lang lang

That second coming is a second guess
Won't need a second hand there on my watch
My second nature takes a second to kick in oh
Shang lang lang
Shang lang lang

Soon very soon it's a common sensation
Soon very soon

I need some second sight to see this through
You know that second rate it just won't do
I'll make a second strike a looking out a second story room

And then at second thought I might get bored
Of playing soldier in the Second World War
Second generation from the secondhand store
Shang lang lang
Shang lang lang
Shang lang lang

Soon very soon it's a common sensation
Soon very soon a-like-the-fate-a-the nation
Soon very soon such a common sensation
Ah ah

I need a second just to catch my breath
I need a second wind to blow my wad
I'll play the second fiddle second best oh
Shang lang lang
Shang lang lang
Shang lang lang

Soon very soon it's a common sensation
Soon very soon a-like-the-fate-a-the nation
Soon very soon well such a common sensation
Soon very soon a-like-the-fate-a-the nation
Ah ah

Soon very soon such a common sensation
Soon very soon a-like-the-fate-a-the nation
Soon very soon
Very soon
Very soon
Very soon
