Today, everything was fine fine fine
until roundabout quarter to nine
suddenly I found myself in a bind, a bind
was it something I said, something I read
and manifest that's getting you down
don't you dare come to bed
with that ambiguous look in your eye
I'd sooner sleep by an open fire and wake up fried
Say what you will
say what you mean
no, you could never offend
your dirty words come out clean, clean
Tomorrow, what price will I pay
could I make it all up to you
by serving coffee for two in bed
would you then give me the time of day?
I need a map of your head translated into english
so I can learn to not make you frown
feel better if you vent
put your frustrations into four letter words
and let them out on mine
the most weathered ears in town
Say what you will
say what you mean
no, you could never offend
your dirty words come out clean
Clean, clean
clean, clean
clean, clean
Say what you will
say what you mean
no, you could never offend
your dirty words come out clean
say what you will
say what you mean
no, you could never offend
your dirty words come out clean, clean
