Intro. | | | | |
Vers. | | - Pause - ||: | :||
This didnt used to be me, old boy
This isnt what Id want
pulling old night fighters
in a restaurant
Theres smoke and flames behind me
where the self-respect all went
and Im behind, behind
with the rent
Ive been stitched up like a kipper, old son
but I wont be again
Hell hath no fury
Oh, Im like a lot of men
Now Im stalking this old Doris
with lascivious intent
and Im behind, behind
with the rent
Chorus. | | | --- | --- | x 2
Just a little duck and dive
and a bit of wheel and deal
Shell remind me Im alive
Shell remind me I still feel
Just a little shelling out
for a bit of you-know-what
I know this is all about
something that I never got
Solo 1.| | | |
Vers. | | | |
Well this crumpets past its sell-by-date
but they all would qualify
Theyre going to be lonely
and be happy to comply
She knows that Im a chancer
coming on like a gent
but Im behind, behind
with the rent
Yes, Im behind, behind
with the rent
Solo 2.| | | | |
Outro. | |
