Hard Act To Follow Songtext
von Split Enz

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
Hard act to follow
