Three And Nine

(Ferry/Mackay)

You might remember

How it used to be

3 and 9 could show you

Any fantasy

Parti-coloured pictures

Now and then 3D

No cheap nostalgia

Conjured up by me

Back to the old days

Close to home

Show me some new ways

I'll carry on

Whether making out or played out

Three and nine make twelve

I've a dozen reasons

Lying on the shelf

B Feature back rows

Filed away

No point pretending

Change is here to stay

3 and 9 to 45

Decimal romance

If you've warmed to centigrade

You stand a sporting chance

I'm not so special

You're a misfit too

Why must they interfere

In everything we do?

Should we play safe now

Or go all the way?

Six and two threes now

More I cannot say
