You could have been a docker |
|
You had it all |
|
Feather cut and muscles |
|
I hear you're a banker these days |
|
Well we took New York |
|
And wrapped it up in a silver shawl |
|
Yeah yeah yeah |
|
You were always kicking in the exit door |
|
While I was saving pennies |
|
For the bus back home |
|
Coming down in the afternoon |
|
Excuse me John |
|
What are you on |
|
Can you spare a bit for me |
|
To carry on |
|
Through today, 'til tonight |
|
'Cos tomorrow's out of sight |
|
Out of reach |
|
Out of it, again |
|
You carried off a billboard |
|
Twenty foot by ten |
|
And put it in your bedroom |
|
Now you can't get in |
|
So please wash your hands |
|
As you leave this century |
|
Excuse me John |
|
What are you on |
|
Can you spare a bit for me |
|
To carry on |
|
Through today, 'til tonight |
|
'Cos tomorrow's out of sight |
|
Out of reach |
|
Out of it, again |
|
Yeah yeah yeah yeah |
|
You know you want it |
|
You know you need it |
|
You know I need it too |
|
Excuse me John |
|
What are you on |
|
Can you spare a bit for me |
|
To carry on |
|
Through today, 'til tonight |
|
'Cos tomorrow's out of sight |
|
Out of reach |
|
Out of it, again |
