I spy a boy, I spy a girl. I spy the worst place in the world, in the whole |
|
world. Oh you didn't do bad, you made it out, I'm still stuck here oh but |
|
I'll get out. Oh yeah I'll get out. Can't you see a walks among you |
|
seeing through your pretty lives. Do you think I do these things for real? |
|
I do these things just so I survive. And you know I will survive. It may |
|
look to the untrained eye I'm sitting on my arse all day and I'm biding |
|
my time until I take you all on my Lords and Ladies I will prevail, I |
|
cannot fail. Cause I spy. Oh I've got your numbers taken notes and all |
|
the ways your minds work out. I've studied and your mind's just the |
|
same as mine except that you're just clever swines, you never let |
|
masks slip, you never admit to it, you're never hurried. Oh no no no. |
|
And every night I hold my plan how I'll get my satisfaction, how I will |
|
blow your paradise away away away ooh. Cause I spy. It's just like in |
|
the old days - I used to compose my own critical notices in my head. |
|
The crowd gasps at Cocker's masterful control of the bicycle, skilfully |
|
avoiding the dog turd next to the corner shop. Imagining a blue plaque |
|
above the place I first ever felt a girl's breasts, the whole 'nana. You've |
|
got to wait for the best. You see you should take me seriously. Very |
|
seriously indeed. Cause I've been sleeping with your wife for the past |
|
sixteen weeks, smoking your cigarettes, drinking your brandy, messing |
|
up the bed you chose together. And in all that time I just wanted you to |
|
come home unexpectedly one afternoon and catch us at it in the front |
|
room. You see I spy for a living and I specialise in revenge, on taking |
|
the things I know will cause you pain. I can't help it, I was dragged up. |
|
My favourite park's a car park, grass is something you smoke, birds is |
|
something you shag. Take your year in Provence and shove it right up |
|
your arse. Your Ladbroke Grove looks turn me on, yeah. With your |
|
frightened eyes and roach burns under your eyes and addresses, and |
|
thousands of tiny dryna-slides running a path, running a path to the |
|
corner of your eyes. And every night I hatch my plan, it's not a case of |
|
woman v man. It's more a case of haves against haven'ts and I just |
|
happen to have got what you need, just exactly what you need yeah. La |
|
la la la la la la la la la, in the midnight hour. La la la la la la la la la la, I |
|
will come to you, I will come to you, I will take you from this sickness, |
|
dinner parties and champagne, I'll hold your body and make it sing |
|
again. come on - sing again, let's sing again. Oh yeah, cause I spy, yes, |
|
I spy, ssss. I spy a boy and I spy a girl. I spy the chance to change the |
|
world, to change your world. |
