And leave you in a Wimpy Bar --
You tell me that we've gone to far --
Come running up to me.
Make the scene at Cousin Jack's --
Leave him put the bottles back --
Mends his glasses that I cracked --
Well that one's up to me.
Buy a silver cloud to ride --
Pack the tennis club inside --
Trouser cuffs hung far too wide --
Well it was up to me.
Tyres down on your bicicle --
Your nose feels like an icicle --
The yellow fingered smoky girl
Is looking up to me.
Well I'm a common working man
With a half of bitter -- bread and jam
And if it pleases me I'll put one on you man --
When the copper fades away.
The rainy season comes to pass --
The day-glo pirate sinks at last --
And if I laughed a bit to fast.
Well it was up to me.
Take you to the cinema And leave you in a Wimpy Bar -- You tell me that we've gone to far -- Come running up to me. Make the scene at Cousin Jack's -- Leave him put the bottles back -- Mends his glasses that I cracked -- Well that one's up to me. Buy a silver cloud to ride -- Pack the tennis club inside -- Trouser cuffs hung far too wide -- Well it was up to me. Tyres down on your bicicle -- Your nose feels like an icicle -- The yellow fingered smoky girl Is looking up to me. Well I'm a common working man With a half of bitter -- bread and jam And if it pleases me I'll put one on you man -- When the copper fades away. The rainy season comes to pass -- The day-glo pirate sinks at last -- And if I laughed a bit to fast. Well it was up to me. Explain Request ×
