[00:18.48] Say what you want and leave your shyness home
[00:22.27] You should do what you want and write a little poem
[00:27.14] Leave it for her and live another day
[00:30.96] You should leave it for her
[00:32.82] The girl around the way
[00:44.77] Write down a list of things you want to do
[00:48.57] Leave it in work because you want to live a little
[00:53.27] Pick up the girl in someone's borrowed Mini
[00:57.84] Take her to dinner
[00:59.33] Use her boyfriend's money
[01:03.09] Hey lady
[01:03.79] Put the phone down
[01:06.10] Cancel all operations
[01:08.29] Tell your friends to cool it
[01:10.97] Your cover's blown
[01:12.49] I want to see you alone
[01:14.94] Cancel all operations
[01:17.14] Tell your friends to cool it
[01:19.69] Your cover's blown
[01:33.40] Planning a break is such a tricky thing
[01:37.05] Because you move to the country
[01:39.24] She comes back again
[01:41.45] And then you move to the city
[01:43.67] But she goes abroad
[01:45.80] Is she telling you something
[01:48.10] Is she getting bored?
[01:59.18] I'll make a rough plan to sleep around
[02:01.58] I'm in a rut
[02:03.23] I need a change
[02:04.55] I'm a lazy rat if I am honest
[02:07.92] My bold change of tact will fade out with the summer
[02:12.12] I've got no appetite and all the girls are bummers
[02:19.59] My baby doesn't look at me
[02:23.07] The way I want her to
[02:25.08] She doesn't comprend
[02:29.92] My baby's got it going on
[02:32.85] She's got a friend hid in every street in this town
[02:39.09] I want to go out
[02:40.64] But there's nobody home
[02:45.65] I'll go on my own
[02:57.49] Thus starts the lonely walking
[02:59.97] There's always too much talking
[03:02.94] I should have stayed home
[03:08.98] She starts her cool caressing
[03:11.75] The kid, she starts undressing
[03:18.17] I should've stayed home
[03:20.87] The DJ's picking up speed
[03:23.82] That's something
[03:24.95] I just don't need
[03:28.55] I should've stayed home
[03:32.69] The gossip's bearing down on me
[03:35.64] The kids are pairing off in front of me
[03:40.44] I should've stayed home
[03:43.42] I should've stayed home
[03:47.39] I think I'll go home
[04:07.64] Listen lady
[04:08.76] Put your phone down
[04:11.38] Cancel all operations
[04:13.02] Tell your friends to cool it
[04:15.55] Your cover's blown
[04:17.24] I need to see you alone
[04:19.68] Cancel all operations
[04:21.89] Tell your friends to cool it
[04:25.07] Listen lady
[04:26.36] Leave your phone down
[04:28.47] Cancel all operations
[04:30.73] Tell your friends to cool it
[04:33.20] Your cover's blown
[04:34.72] I need to see you alone
[04:37.20] Cancel all operations
[04:39.40] Tell your friends to cool it
[04:42.56] Hey lady
[04:43.94] Meet my mum and dad
[04:45.93] You're a strange aberration
[04:48.06] In this land of potted plants and box-like houses
[04:52.47] Where the girls like mouses
[04:54.85] Breathe a long sigh of resignation
[04:57.83] You resign yourself to keep on growing
[05:01.26] Like the seeds you're sowing
[05:03.39] You're a strange apparition
[05:05.55] In this land of grammar schools and gala days
[05:09.71] The ladies set in their ways
[05:12.05] You had a long conversation
[05:14.19] With the kid next door
[05:16.60] Who's a little slow
[05:18.33] But in your favour
[05:20.16] It shows
[05:20.66] Cancel all operations
[05:22.83] Tell your friends to move out to the sticks
[05:33.68] Listen lady
[05:35.19] Leave the boy home
[05:38.38] Cancel all operations
[05:42.31] Tell your friends
[05:43.95] There's more to you than this
