EN
I don't want it Don't want it now This is be war So let that call resound Senior, senior Mopping your brow My two pennorth might as well be a thousand pounds I look back to the company A mystery on a magic isle Now where's my halfway house? The seagulls cloud my rubbish pile And I tilt back til I make contact With the stone (no, no) And you deliver some knockout blow I'm scattered like treason, he goes (no, no) And you deliver some knockout blow I was nerdish nerdish blue Let's not be churlish, I was not through But I drop the toothpick And stop sweeping fires I'm in the dentist's chair And I'm wielding pliers I touch down in bad company A matrix of belt and buckle lines Turncoat, cutpurse Knocked on wood one too many times And I tilt back til I make contact With the stone (no, no) And you deliver some knockout blow I'm scattered like treason, he goes (no, no) And you deliver some knockout blow It's all a mistake, capitan I used to sail with them Til they cavorted and cavilled, ablaze in shoals And put my money into the Mary Rose And you deliver some knockout blow
