1,2,3,4,5 |
|
Call me morbid, call me pale |
|
I've spent six years on your trail |
|
Six full years |
|
On your trail |
|
Call me morbid, call me pale |
|
I've spent six years on your trail |
|
Six full years of my life on your trail |
|
And if you have five seconds to spare |
|
Then I'll tell you the story of my life : |
|
Sixteen, clumsy and shy |
|
I went to London and I |
|
I booked myself in at the Y ... W.C.A. |
|
I said : "I like it here - can I stay? |
|
I like it here - can I stay? |
|
Do you have a vacancy |
|
For a Back-scrubber?" |
|
She was left behind, and sour |
|
And she wrote to me, equally dour |
|
She said : "In the days when you were hopelessly poor |
|
I just liked you more..." |
|
And if you have five seconds to spare |
|
Then I'll tell you the story of my life : |
|
Sixteen, clumsy and shy |
|
I went to London and I |
|
I booked myself in at the Y ... W.C.A. |
|
I said : "I like it here - can I stay? |
|
I like it here - can I stay? |
|
And do you have a vacancy |
|
For a Back-scrubber?" |
|
Call me morbid, call me pale |
|
I've spent too long on your trail |
|
Far too long |
|
Chasing your tail |
