Oh and shake me by the hand
We could disappear for days
Well, you swear that you're original
You may be an embarrassment
And they'll come crashing though the wall
La, la, la
And the boys in every bar
'Coz you've made them piles of money
And the boys in every bar
But they wont take you alive
So steal the watch from off my wrist
Living's much too easy
You can tell a heady tale
La, la, la
Cold blooded women make me sneeze?
Well, I've seen you and your friend some place
Won't you please forgive me but you know
And I'll kick you out the door
And maybe then we'll see
They will not miss you when you go
And they wouldn't understand
And we can all sleep for a while
So steal the watch from off my wrist
We could disappear for days
Pour yourself a drink or three
Though it's far away from me
If for just one minute you lie
Look me up when you get home
But I love the way your clothes are never in style
And they wouldn't understand
I love your braces and your hesitant smile
And leave you crawling till the minute you die
And dying would be some kind of bore
Or they won't take you alive
And maybe we'll think clearer for a while
La, la, la
'Coz you made them piles of money
Well, they'll hunt you like a dog
Stacked up twenty storeys high
Well, they'll miss you when you're gone
But please don't get me wrong it's only right
And they will not miss you when you go
Stacked up twenty storeys high
Gypsy blood will get you far
You know I just can tell you apart
And we'll both keep screaming on
That you can stamp on my heart
But I know I've seen those jealous eyes before
And though they'll hunt you like a dog
Oh and shake me by the hand
Gypsy blood will get you far
Well, I told you once before
Tear another hole in my brown shoes
