Lost  my heart to a dancer, an easy pick up for chancers
What  she saw in me,  I don't know
When  she said she'd been behaving,
I  found it hard to stop myself from laughing
I  think I'll head off,  in fact
dig  me in deep guys  I won't be coming  back

What's  that you said my love?
Yes,  I know what you've been through
 And that's  why I can't stay... We  can no longer cheat you
 (  octave on bass)
I  lost my heart to a dancer,
an  easy pick up for chancers
What  she saw in me  i don't know (oh yeah)
She  became depressed, that's down to boredom
She  should have said I could have scored some
things  to pass the time
 Or took  her out
Turning  in at eight,  what's that  about?
 don't think I need to repeat it)
