| Friendly Island Song
Lyric by Clive James, music by Pete Atkin
You never took me like you said you would
To your friendly island
Where you said the life was clean and good
And the smiling gods to freedom stood
You never took me like you said you might
To the day-long beaches
Where the sand was alabaster white
And a falling wave a wall of light
You never took me like you promised me
To your friendly island
Where you said it was delight to be
And the only crime not to be free
And you went alone across the sea
