Faron Young Lyrics - Prefab Sprout

Antiques, every other sentiment, an antique 

As obsolete as warships in the Baltic 

I'm drivin' on a straight road it never alters 

And the radio serenades but doesn't falter 

You offer infrared instead of sun 

You offer paper spoons and bubble gum 

Late sky 

Like an all night radio station without morning 

Like stumbling on Pearl Harbor without warning 

You offer infrared instead of sun 

You offer bubble gum 

You give me faron young four in the morning 

You give me faron young four in the morning 

Every mother's son's romantic 

Every mother's son's frantic 

The sunset makes a fence out of the forest 

But here I am with head inside the bonnet 

I've lost just what it takes to be honest 

You offer infrared instead of sun 

You offer bubble gum 

You give me faron young four in the morning 

You give me faron young four in the morning 

Forgive me faron young four in the morning 

Forgive me faron young four in the morning
