Squeeze - Talk To Him lyrics

(difford/tilbrook) Give me a plate and i'd break it Show me a smile and i'd cry Give me your love and i'd hate it Tell me the truth and i'd lie Give me a crust and i'd burn it Show me the way and i'd shout Give me a page and i'd turn it Well you could never put me down Misunderstood like a co*kroach (as tasty as a crab) Who just tries to live for the day (my world's on my back) People won't need to be frightened (as frightened as i am) Excepting i was born this way Don't sweep me under the carpet (tomorrow i'll be there) Don't file me away for my sins (there's some i can repair) Friends are now beginning to say (so pleased with their despair) How come i don't talk to him I didn't talk to him Give me an egg and i'd s** it Show me the sun and i'd freeze Give me a nest and some honey Keep all the birds and the bees, please Helplessness under my wing People said don't talk to him
