Half Man Half Biscuit - Soft Verges lyrics

So I'm walking down the road And heading towards me Is somebody I know But not like a brother He's seen me, and we both realise That we're going to have to put into operation The tricky manoeuvre that is Acknowledgement without breaking stride So I keep my eyes fixed firmly on the ground 'Til I get within ten or so feet away With a nod of the head And a timely hello I can carry on walking Don't wanna get talking Rule number one – carry on walking And anyway I don't know his name And if I were to guess I'd guess it all wrong And I'd be there for a long time How's it going, where're you living Do you still see much of Steve? Are you married, are you working Do you still drink in The Swan?
