Fish - I Know What I Like текст песни

[genesis, "selling england by the pound"]

(t. banks / p. collins / p. gabriel / s. hackett / m. rutherford)

Its one oclock and time for lunch,

Dum-dee-dum-dee-dum-dum

When the sun beats down and I lie on the bench,

I can always hear them talk.

Theres always been ethel:

"jacob, wake up! youve got to tidy your room now."

And then mister lewis:

"isnt it time that he was out on his own? "

Over the garden wall, two little lovebirds - cuckoo to you!

Keep them moving blades sharp...

I know what I like, and I like what I know;

Getting better in your wardrobe, stepping one beyond your show.

Sunday night, mr farmer called, said:

"listen son, youre wasting your time; theres a future for you

In the fire escape trade. come up to town!"

But I remebered a voice from the past;

"gambling only plays when youre winning"

- I had to thank old miss mort for schooling a failure.

Keep them moving blades sharp...

I know what I like, and I like what I know;

Getting better in your wardrobe, stepping one beyond your show.

When the sun beats down and I lie on the bench,

I can always hear them talk.

Me, Im just a lawnmower - you can tell me by the way I walk.
