lyrics

He keeps her in the dark
Smokescreens and shadowcasting
She sees someone
He thinks he is someone else
As far as he can tell
She's out for dinner
With the loyal clientele

Wake up baby, please wait up
This old lady’s had a second cup
Clear the sink into the cupboard
Tell your boyfriend he is not your mother
And he watches her try on new clothes for a while
Elegant ladies go the extra mile
But he can't tell

She's got a way with getting what she
Wants to be somebody someday
Pick me up
Turn me round
Lift me up
Knock me down
All I ever wanted was to play a part
Fills the empty spaces deep inside my heart
Oh baby just don't start
She's got a way to roll with punches
Blames their problems on the flunkies
Pick me up

He seeks a modern life
Plans a three-way
Grows impatient
With the pace of meek and mild
It always makes him smile
When he sees her face set
With all the blitzkrieg of a child

She's got a way with speaking lovely
Reasons to get married someday
Pick me up

It's like water in a cup
Once flowing down
Getting stuck

He tears it all apart
Leaves her lonely
She'll be stronger
Never make the same mistakes
A second landing
From the stand-in
The way they planned it
Once they'd worked out what they was
