I saw two shadow men on the Vallance Road,
Said they'd pay me for your address
Oh, I was so bold
I said you see these two cold fingers,
These crooked fingers I show
You's a way to mean «no».
Well, they didn't like that much I can tell you
Said «Sunshine, I wouldn't wanna be in your shoes»
They chased me up two flights of stairs,
Caught me in the lift how I sighed and said
«Hello», 'cause you're impossible.
[Refrain:]
But it's just like he's in another world
He doesn't see the danger on show,
Wind up like Joseph bloody in a hole.
And it's just like she's in another world
And how they suit each other oh, no —
But they never get close,
It's impossible.
Saw the same two men on the Cally road
Said now they'd double their offer
I was so bold
To say you see these two cold fingers,
These crooked fingers I show
Oh, you's a way to mean no
[Refrain:]
But it's just like he's in another world
He doesn't see the danger on show,
He'll end up like Joseph bloody in a hole.
It's just like she's in another world
How they suit each other oh, no —
But you never get close,
It's unstoppable.
But it's just like we're all in another world
How we suit each other oh, no —
But we never get close
That's close enough now…
