I'll Compete

(álbum: Mad Not Mad - 1985)

I'll be you're promotional copy
In this here number one band
Take your business beyond your farthest dreams
Sounds good sounds great sounds really grand

But wait
Let us hurry now time is catching up
And it looks like the music hall race has caught me up

But I'll compete yeah yeah for all that it's worth
I'll compete for all that it's worth
I'll compete on the beat for all that It's worth
I'll compete for all that I'm worth

I'll be your pop swap come floppy disc
Race you along the upper deck
Retrieve from you my withheld treasure
Then watch you sink with your sunken rotting wreck

Let us hurry now time is running out
Let's not forget time is money
Said the businessman to his faithful scout

But I'll compete in the national press for all that it's worth
I'll compete for all that it's worth
I'll compete on the beat for all that It's worth
I'll compete internationally for all that it's worth

We must hurry now time is closing in
And I'm getting no younger in fact
Five years closer to my pension scheme

I'll compete yeah yeah for all that it's worth
I'll compete for all that it's worth
I'll compete on the beat for all that It's worth
I'll compete with rest of the pack for all that it's worth
