The Knack

(الألبوم: Cool For Cats - 1979)

Standing by the curate
Hat over his eyes
Smokes drifts slowly from him
Looking kind and wise

Seen him in the papers
Murdered by Malone
Heard the bomber whisper
Something about the phone

Watch out on the corner
Standing by the rack
Little Gringo told her
Shot him in the back

Now I'm shaking
Yes I'm shaking
Now I'm shaking
'Cause I ain't got the knack

Colours seem most [?]
Hands against the wheel
Flowers for opinion
Whiskey is up to deal

Stalling in the warehouse
Bowling alley too
Look behind the jury
Scared to point at you

Watch out on the corner
Standing by the rack
Little Gringo told her
Shot him in the back

Now I'm shaking
Yes I'm shaking
Now I'm shaking
'Cause I ain't got the knack

Round and round the city
Taxes all fall down
Shot out in a Citroen
East side of the town

Waffle in a Guinness
Tied between the bars
Fifty fifty chances
Bulletproof all cars

Watch out on the corner
Standing by the rack
Little Gringo told her
Shot him in the back

Now I'm shaking
Yes I'm shaking
Now I'm shaking
'Cause I ain't got the knack
