    Lyrics:
    seated in rows
    knees and eyes closed i felt pretty
    in the shoes and the dress
    confused by the rest could he hear me?
    lydia wears a cross
    says she’s never gonna take it off
    we sit back to back
    listening to jesus christ
    superstar soundtrack
    i’d be a believer
    if it was all just song and dance
    i’d be a believer
    if i thought we had a chance
    eyes to the board
    thoughts to our lord
    we were praying for
    princess diana
    miss brown was keeping score
    vivien’s holding on
    but singing every single word wrong
    on the parade float
    just a child in a leotard beneath a technicolour dream coat
    i’d be a believer
    if it was all just song and dance
    i’d be a believer
    if i thought we had a chance
    the line up, the quiet
    the bleeding heart divided
    forgive me, forgive me, forgive me go on now you try it
    we sung “welcome to the family”
    arms raised, at every assembly
    little sirens singing their songs
    where have the babies gone?
    i’d be a believer
    if it was all just song and dance
    i’d be a believer
    if i thought we had a chance

    We are so lucky (perhaps blessed - given the theme of this song!) to exist in the same corner of space and time as Julia and her music; she is one of the finest, wisest and most beautiful and original lyricists in the world. I’ve often described her music and lyrics to others as though she writes in the negative space or shades of human experience - giving expression to realities, circumstances, and feelings in a way that no one else does or can

    i've listened to this tune several times already. now knowing that julia was also brought up with catholic school deepens the connection; the catholic guilt is endless and very real, lmao. I love the video as well! appreciate how all of julia's music videos have a great sense of place/setting & mood. the slow zoom-in/zoom-outs in the beginning with the beautiful framings of the lighthouse; the running and catharsis when the song starts to rev up in the back-half. great stuff. hyped for the album!
