lyrics

Seek out those secret places
Far from the maddening crowds
Arrive in good time before the deluge
Got any questions? Don't say them out loud.

Make the most of these quiet times
Don't know how long they will last
Sitting in the corner, away from the speakers
If it kicks off, get out of there fast

We won't assemble, under the cymbals
Not too much treble or bass
You might think that the voice should be louder
That's almost never the case

Nah naddie naddi nah di diddy diddy di so etc

There's a valley in the woodlands
You won't find it this way
Once a fortnight, silence is broken
By the engines on racing day

Checkout those cherished moments
Outside of occupied time
keep it quiet, don't tell anybody
I won't be letting on mine

We won't assemble, under the cymbals
Not too much treble or bass
You might think that the voice should be louder
That's almost never the case

Nah naddie naddi nah di diddy diddy di so etc
