Royston Rose - The Koobas

Royston Rose is back tomorrow

You’ll be on your own today

Looking for some time to borrow

Looking for a place to stay

Sympathy, a canned expression

Takes the weight of time from you

Comfort in the time of tension

Till the real confusion through

When a face is all you’ll need

Royston Rose is there

He can do things for you

Does he ever hold back comfort

When decisions can’t be made

When you’ve lost the key to your thoughts

He won’t look the other way

All my friends are rushing off to

Places they can sit and hide

Till the troubles all blow over

And it’s calm again outside

Well a face is all you’ll need

Royston Rose is there

He can do things for you

Royston Rose is back tomorrow

You’ll be on your own today

Looking for some time to borrow

Looking for a place to stay

Royston Rose I need your presence

Take the edges off my life

Bake a cake with many raisins

Come around and bring a slice

When a face is all you’ll need

Royston Rose is there

He can do things for you

Pass the cake
