Take My Temperature

(album: Lap Of Honour - 2005)

Let's take a look at your eyes they're bloody mental
swelled to the size of the Lincoln Continental
a bag of nerves and a pack of Berkley menthols
and I can tell by your teeth you've had a good life!

you should take my temperature
my god, I'm too unwell to be here hey hey hey
you can take my temperature
coz i'm a hundred degrees in the shade over here

you said your sister, she stumbled to a party
because there's someone you like who's at the party
you fell asleep on the coats before it started
and i can tell by the coats this is a nice place!

you can take my temperature
my god, I'm too unwell to be here hey hey hey
you can take my temperature
coz i'm a hundred degrees in the shade over here

and now you tell me you've gone south for the winter (oo ah)
and i can count my friends upon my fingers (oo ah)
my hands are cold and i cannot feel my fingers (oo ah)
and i can tell by your tan your pretty healthy

you should take my temperature
my god, I'm too unwell to be here hey hey hey
you can take my temperature
coz i'm a hundred degrees in the shade over here

oooooooh
oooooooooooooh
oooooooooooooooooh

you should take my temperature
my god, I'm too unwell to be here hey hey hey
you can take my temperature
coz i'm a hundred degrees in the shade over here

you can take my temperature
my god, I'm too unwell to be here hey hey hey
you can take my temperature
coz i'm a hundred degrees in the shade over here
