Lyrics

Saw two shadow men on the vallance road
Said they'd pay me for your address
Oh I was so bold

I said you see these two cold fingers
These crooked fingers I show
You a way to mean no

Well they didn't like that much I can tell you
He said "sunshine I wouldn't wanna be in your shoes"
They chased me up three flights of stairs
Caught me in the lift how I sighed and said
Hello, 'cause you're impossible

And it's just like he's in another world
He doesn't see the danger on show
Now he'll wind up like joseph bloody in the hole

And it's just like she's in another world
And how they suit each other oh no
But they never get close
It's impossible

Saw the same two men on the cally road
Said now they double their offer
I was so bold

To say you see these two cold fingers
These crooked fingers I show
Oh you a way to mean no

And it's just like he's in another world
He doesn't see the danger on show
Now he'll end up like joseph bloody in the hole

It's just like she's in another world
And how they suit each other oh no
But you never get close
It's unstoppable

(F**k off)

And it's just like we're all in another world
And how we suit each other oh no
But you never get close
That's close enough now ..
