 | I've just finished decorating,
It was very irritating.
And I know they're going to come around tonight,
And I know they're going to say to me tonight,
"It makes the room look bigger."
"It makes the room look bigger."
So let's forget about the open-topped bus ride,
Standing tall on the town hall balcony.
It's about as likely as hen's teeth.
It's about as likely as hen's teeth.
And as the light gets dimmer,
I watch the chance get slimmer.
But I'm putting up a hook to hang my hopes upon.
there's a fellow coming round to stick the gas back on.
And if truth be told now the plumber's gone,
it makes the room look bigger.
I'm drawn towards the souvenir stalls,
I twirl around the key fob rack.
Well, it's all right for Nicholas and for Neil,
Yeah, well, how do you think that makes me feel?
And all the while I can see
I'm on the CCTV
Elderly lady at the bus stop
Thinks I'm going to eat her
And so to reassur her,
I ask her for the time.
And the sense of relief at my friendly tone
Reveals itself in her karmic moan.
You can wait twenty minutes and nothing comes along
And then all of a sudden three thugs rob your pension
Oh, there's generally one at twenty-five past
They come swinging round that corner,
They think they're Benny Goodman
But I'm putting up a hook to hang my hopes upon.
there's a fellow coming round to stick the gas back on.
And if truth be told now the plumber's gone,
it makes the room look bigger.
Oh, tiptoe,
to the front row,
Of the Korn show,
With a submachinegun.
Once again, indie rock saves my life.
