[Verse 1]
I'm on the white cliffs of Dover
Thinking it over and over
But if I jump, it's all over
A cautionary tale for you

[Verse 2]
I'd like to roll in the clover
With you over and over
On the white cliffs of Dover
And then I'd let you push me over

[Chorus]
If that is the fact, then in actual fact
It's not where it's at, and it's over, oh-oh
If that is the fact, then in actual fact
I'm not where it's at, it's all over (Yes, it is)

[Verse 3]
And now the bluebirds are over
(I floated away)
Over the white cliffs of Dover
(Spent twenty years upon the sea)
And when you push me over
(And when I came back)
Don't bury me, I'm not worth anything
(I found that you turned into me)

[Bridge]
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la

[Chorus]
If that is the fact, then in actual fact
It's not where it's at, and it's over, oh-oh
If that is the fact, then in actual fact
I'm not where it's at, it's all over (Yes, it is)

[Outro]
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh

Blur

British rock group Blur formed in 1988 and began life as a fairly unsuccessful shoegaze/madchester outfit, but the band quickly developed into becoming one of the leaders of the massive 1990s Britpop scene.

Their rivalry with contemporaries Oasis culminated in one of the most famous chart battles in British history – one which Blur won when “Country House” outsold Oasis’s “Roll With It” by 50,000 copies, giving Blur their first #1 single in the process.

Following this, the group embarked on a new musical direction, deliberately heading away from their trademark Britpop sound and instead taking influences from American alternative rock, a sound which earned them new fans in the US and gave them their second UK #1: “Beetlebum” in 1997.
