Current song lyrics
I retire to bed early last night<br />You follow me in or you don't<br />And either way, it's alright<br />You've been going with her now for seventeen weeks<br />But that doesn't make a blind bit of difference to me<br /><br />Just when you're ready to take on the world<br />Some other girl had to get there first<br />And it's obvious that you're a man that's out to own her<br />But you know where I am<br />And you know that you could have both<br /><br />She's away<br />And you get by without her very well<br />If I'm around<br />You get by without her even better<br /><br />I don't kid myself about happy endings<br />I'm too old for that now<br />Out on my doorstep, your lip burst and bleeding<br />Well, that was a crash course for me<br /><br />Acting the film star while you were still spoken for<br />It didn't look rosy for me<br />But I've considered the alternatives<br />A few degrees of separation can't be that bad<br /><br />Just when you're ready to take on the world<br />Some other girl had to get there first<br />And it's obvious that you're a man that's out to own her<br />But you know where I am<br />And you know that you could have both<br />I wanted the world<br />But some other girl had to get there first<br />And it's obvious that you're a man that's out to own her<br />But you know where I am<br />So stop!<br /><br />"I feel like C.C. Baxter in Wilder's 'Apartment',<br />That particular arrangement just came out of the blue<br />And who was it who sang 'I know that you love one<br />So why can't you love two?'<br />I was in full-time education when I got scared of the future<br />And I've only got a job so I don't disappoint my mother<br />It's like I've painted myself into a social corner<br />Well, that's what happens when you listen to<br />Saint Scott Walker<br />On headphones<br />On the bus.<br />What about us? What about us?<br />My friends come round and they ask me 'What about us?'<br />My friends come round and they ask me 'What about us?'<br />You know I don't kid myself about happy endings<br />I'm too old for all that now<br />But you don't have to worry that much about the future<br />And it's not as if you ever did before<br />Because you'll always have everything just as you want it<br />And there'll always be a phone to ring at three in the morning<br />And you'll always have someone who'll drive you home<br />Yes, you'll always have someone, someone to drive you home.<br />Someone to drive you home."<br /><br />Just when you're ready to take on the world<br />Some other girl has to get there first<br />And it's obvious that you're a man that's out to own her<br />But you know where I am<br />And you know what I want<br />And I know I'll never have you completely alone<br />So I'm trying to draw up a contingency plan<br />And it's obvious that you're a man that's out to own her<br />But you know where I am<br />And you know that you could have both<br /><br />You could have both<br />You could have both
