Today, everything was fine
Until roundabout, quarter to nine,
I suddenly found myself in a bind
Was it something I said?
Something I read and manifested that's getting you down
Don't you dare come to bed with that ambiguous look in you eye,
I'd sooner sleep by an open fire and wake up friend
Say what you will, say what you mean
You could never offend, your dirty words come out 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 gimme the time of day?
I need a map of your head,
translated into English so I can learn to not make you frown
You'd feel better if you'd 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
You could offend, your dirty words come out clean
