Buckle up your boots
And take a step outside your door
And you're going walking
Find a good excuse
And before you know you'll be on your way
And you can chalk up another perfect day
bu*ton up your coat
You're going out and I know you are
Cause I heard you talking
Run along the road
And you're walking out and I wonder why
And I thought I heard you say "Goodbye"
[Chorus]
What a way to make my day
What an unproductive thing to say
I think you meant it too
The way you said "We love you"
What a way to twist the knife
What a final end to the easy life
Can't believe it's true
The way you said "We love you"
Put the money in
Remind yourself of all the things
You'd like to say to me
And then you look at him
And you wait until you hear the tone
And you hurl abuse into the answerphone
Let the money drop
And wonder why
You watch your fingers move around the dial
And when the message stops
Well you can think out loud and speak your mind
And say anything that sounds unkind
[Chorus]
I wonder if all you said was true
Well I wish that it was in which case I could hate you too
[Chorus x2 fade]
