Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I wanna be the one whos got his fingers on the button
Two hands, tight grip on everything and nothing
I wanna be the one who fits in with the rest
Neat hair, clean nails, pass the acid test
[Verse 2]
Always pretending, I'm breaking my back
Sometimes it's better, adjust to the pack
Borrowed and stolen, noticed by no one
Affected, broken and frozen
[Refrain]
Hidden in everyone's sight
[Chorus]
I wanna be a Jack, just so I can have a trade
A smile on my face, so long as I get paid
I wanna be your first and I wanna be your last
I wanna be the bubbles in your bubble bath
[Verse 3]
I went to the doctor he gave me these pills
Take one each morning, she'll bring back the thrills
She'll love you and leave you and kiss you goodnight
Waits till you're sleeping then bites
[Refrain]
Hidden in everyone's sight
[Verse 4]
It's only the meaning that's right
[Chorus]
One more try and we'll see eye to eye
Do you keep the values to which we strive?
And do you want to see the high street survive?
One more try and we'll see eye to eye
Do you keep the values to which we strive?
And do you want to see the high street survive?
One more try
[Verse 5]
A thing that keeps me up at night
That makes me think I've lost my fight
A narrow space within my mind
I think about from time to time
The going rate of a pint of milk
Why have I never dipped a till?
Why did I not make that joke?
Why do I hate standing still?
I wanna be the one who's got his finger on the button
I wanna be a Jack just so I can have a trade
I wanna be a dog just so I can be a bitch
I just wanna find something that stops me feeling so
[Bridge]
Cold and bloody
Wet and muddy
Nowhere to run
You trust no one
[Chorus]
One more try and we'll see eye to eye
Do you keep the values to which we strive?
And do you want to see the high street survive?
One more try and we'll see eye to eye
Do you keep the values to which we strive?
And do you want to see the high street survive?
One more try and we'll see eye to eye
Do you keep the values to which we strive?
