Hard Act To Follow

There's a lot of good acts around

Plenty of profound performers

But there's only one who really gets through to me

Whenever you come on I light up

Everything you do goes down well

I can tell, after you it's all downhill

Proving you're a hard act to follow

You're a hard act to follow

You make it difficult, so difficult

Hard act to follow, you're a hard act to follow

Keeping me at arms length, sapping my strength from a distance

Hard act to follow

Watch a lot of foreign movies

See a lot of late night TV

Looking for a girl to distract me from what you are

I try to lose my concentration

Acting out of sheer frustration

I go out at night, but after you it doesn't feel right, hey

Proving you're a hard act to follow

You're a hard act to follow

You make it difficult, so difficult

Hard act to follow you're a hard act to follow

Keeping me at arms length, sapping my strength from a distance

Hard act to follow

There's a lot of good acts around

Plenty of profound performers

But there's only one who really gets through to me

And I'm not looking for an actress

No, no, not a saki hostess

All I want is you and you and you and you and you

Encore, encore, encore, encore

Proving you're a hard act to follow

You're a hard act to follow

You make it difficult to even think of taking in another play

Hard act to follow, you're a hard act to follow

Keeping me at arms length, sapping my strength from a distance

Lie like Ophelia

Proving you're a mean scene stealer

Proving you're a hard act to follow

Hard act to follow

Difficult, it's difficult

Hard act to follow

You're a hard act to follow

Keeping me at arms length, sapping my strength from a distance, yeah

Yeah
