Your Cover's Blown

So how do you know each other? And how do you have my number?

So why don't you guide me? You'd be the driver

Say what you want and leave your shyness home

And you should do what you want

And write a little poem

Leave it for her and live another day

And you should leave it for her

The girl around the way

Write down a list of things you want to do

Well then you leave it in work because

You wanna live a little

Pick up the girl in someone's borrowed mini

Take her to dinner, use her boyfriend's money

Hey lady put the phone down

Planning a break is such a tricky thing

Because you move to the country, she comes back again

And then you move to the city but she goes abroad

Is she telling you something, is she getting bored?

I'll make a rough plan to sleep around

I'm in a rut

I need a change

I'm a lazy rat

If I am honest

My bold change of tack will fade out with the summer

I've got no appetite and all the girls are bummers

My baby doesn't look at me

The way I want her to look

She doesn't comprend

My baby's got it going on

She's got a friend hid in every street in this town

I want to go out but there's nobody home

I'll go on my own

Thus starts the lonely walking

There's always too much talking

I should have stayed home

She starts her cool caressing

The kid, she starts undressing

I should've stayed home

The dj's picking up speed

That's something I just don't need

I should've stayed home

The gossip's bearing down on me

The kids are pairing off in front of me

I should've stayed home

I should've stayed home

I think I'll go home

Hey lady, meet my mum and dad

You're a strange aberration

In this land of potted plants and boxlike houses

Where the girls like mouses

Breathe a long sigh of resignation

You resign yourself to keep on growing

All the seeds you're sowing

You're a strange apparition In this land of grammar schools and

Gala days

The ladies set in their ways

You had a long conversation With a kid next door

Who's a little slow

But in your favour, it shows
