i spy

• i spy a boy
  i spy a girl
  i spy the worst place in the world
  in the whole wide 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 giant walks among you seeing through your petty 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 i'm biding 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 number, taken notes, i know the way your minds work; i have studied
  and your minds are just the same as mine except that you are clever swines; you never let your mask slip
  you never admit to it, you're never hurried
  oh no, no, no
  and every night i hone my plan how i will get my satisfaction how i will blow your paradise away away away
  `cause i spy it's just like in the old days i used to compose me own critical notices in my head
  "the crowd gasp at cocker's masterful control of the bicycle skillfully avoiding the dog turd outside the corner shop."
  imagining a blue plaque above the first place i ever touched a girl's chest
  but hold on 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 that you chose together
  and 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 parks are car parks
  grass is something you smoke
  birds are something you shag
  take your year in provence and shove it up your arse
  your ladbroke grove looks turn me on, yeah
  with roach burns in designer dresses skin stretched tight over high cheek-bones and thousands of tiny dryness lines beating a path to the corners 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
  in the midnight hour 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 i spy
  i spy a boy
  i spy a girl
  i spy a chance to change the world
  to change your world.
