I Know What I Like (in your wardrobe)

[Genesis, "Selling England by the Pound"]

(T. Banks / P. Collins / P. Gabriel / S. Hackett / M. Rutherford)

It's one o'clock and time for lunch,

Dum-dee-dum-dee-dum-dum

When the sun beats down and I lie on the bench,

I can always hear them talk.

There's always been Ethel:

"Jacob, wake up! You've got to tidy your room now."

And then Mister Lewis:

"Isn't it time that he was out on his own?"

Over the garden wall, two little lovebirds - cuckoo to you!

Keep them moving blades sharp...

I know what I like, and I like what I know;

getting better in your wardrobe, stepping one beyond your show.

Sunday night, Mr Farmer called, said:

"Listen son, you're wasting your time; there's a future for you

in the fire escape trade. Come up to town!"

But I remebered a voice from the past;

"Gambling only plays when you're winning"

- I had to thank old Miss Mort for schooling a failure.

Keep them moving blades sharp...

I know what I like, and I like what I know;

getting better in your wardrobe, stepping one beyond your show.

When the sun beats down and I lie on the bench,

I can always hear them talk.
