Put the past to bed
Remember what I said
About learning to walk
Before you try to talk?
There's pennies in the red tin
There's wars you have to win
Before I'll give you a key
'Cos you owe it all to me
And I can't explain
Why you work in an office
When you have a brain
Or why my advice is on loan
When you feel a little alone
And you can't afford to pay the price
Or pay me back at all
And I can't explain
Why I live in a bedsit
Like I have no shame
Or why my advice is on loan
When you feel a little alone
And you can't afford to pay the price
Or my advice is not so nice after all
