[00:02.35]Youre sending me tulips mistaken for lilies
[00:05.74]You give me your lip after punching me silly
[00:10.80]You turned my head till it rolled down the brain drain
[00:14.61]If I had any sense now I wouldnt want it back again
[00:19.49]New amsterdam its become much too much
[00:23.37]Till I have the possession of everything she touches
[00:27.24]Till I step on the brakes to get out of her clutches
[00:32.05]Till I speak double dutch to a real double duchess
[00:38.21]Down on the mainspring, listen to the tick tock
[00:41.03]Clock all the faces that move in on your block
[00:45.43]Twice shy and dog tired because youve been bitten
[00:49.69]Everything you say now sounds like it was ghost-written
[00:54.09]Back in london theyll take you to heart after a little while
[00:59.86]Though I look right at home I still feel like an exile
[01:06.64]Somehow I found myself down at the dockside
[01:09.77]Thinking of the old days of liverpool and rotherhithe
[01:15.46]The transparent people who live on the other side
[01:23.81]Living a life that is almost like suicide
