I Spy
(专辑: Different Class - 1995)
I
spy a
boy, I
spy a
girl. I
spy the
worst place in the
world, in the
whole world. Oh you didn't do bad, you made it out, I'm still stuck here oh but I'll get out. Oh yeah I'll get out. Can't you see a
walks among you seeing through your pretty lives. Do you think I
do these things for real? I
do these things just so I
survive. And you know I
will survive. It may look to the
untrained eye I'm sitting on my arse all day And I'm biding my time until I
take you all on my Lords and Ladies I
will prevail, I
cannot fail. Cause I
spy. Oh I've got your numbers taken notes and all the
ways your minds work out. I've studied and your mind's just the
same as mine except that you're just clever swines You never let masks slip, you never admit to it, you're never hurried. Oh no no no. And every night I
hold my plan how I'll get my satisfaction How I
will blow your paradise away away away ooh. Cause I
spy. It's just like in the
old days I
used to compose my own critical notices in my head. The
crowd gasps at Cocker's masterful control of the
bicycle Skilfully avoiding the
dog turd next to the
corner shop. Imagining a
blue plaque above the
place I
first ever felt a
girl's breasts, the
whole 'nana. You've got to wait for the
best. You see you should take me seriously. Very seriously indeed. Cause I've been sleeping with your wife for the
past sixteen weeks Smoking your cigarettes, drinking your brandy, messing up the
bed you chose together. And in all that time I
just wanted you to come home unexpectedly one afternoon And catch us at it in the
front room. You see I
spy for a
living and I
specialise in revenge On taking the
things I
know will cause you pain. I
can't help it, I
was dragged up. My favourite park's a
car park, grass is something you smoke, birds is something you shag. Take your year in Provence and shove it right up your arse. Your Ladbroke Grove looks turn me on, yeah. With roach burns in designer dresses And thousands of tiny dryness lines Beating a
path to the
corner of your eyes And every night I
hatch my plan, it's not a
case of woman v
man. It's more a
case of haves against haven'ts and I
just happen to have got what you need, just exactly what you need yeah. La la la la la la la la la la, in the
midnight hour. La la la la la la la la la la, I
will come to you, I
will come to you I
will take you from this sickness, dinner parties and champagne I'll hold your body and make it sing again. come on sing again, let's sing again. Oh yeah, cause I
spy, yes, I
spy, ssss. I
spy a
boy and I
spy a
girl. I
spy the
chance to change the
world, to change your world.
