Lyrics

No matter how I try
I just can't say goodbye
No matter what you say-hey
Looks like I'm here to stay
No matter where I go
I don't know if you know
But everywhere we've been
I'm kept in quarantine
It's easy to see why
She's over six foot five
I'm only five feet two
Is there a tyre somewhere
That may take me as a spare?
Is there a bank in town
That might cash me as a pound?
Is there a place you know
Where I can up and go?
It's easy to see why
She's over six foot five
I'm only five feet two
Is there a tyre somewhere
That may take me as a spare?
Is there a bank in town
That might cash me as a pound?
Is there a place you know
Where I can up and go?
I remember our first anniversary
It was one of those occasions where believe you and me
I would rather have been held ransom at the point of a gun
Than to suffer indignation for something I hadn't done
No matter how I try
I just can't say goodbye
No matter what you say
Looks like I'm here to stay
Looks like I'm here to stay
Doo-doo, doo-bee-doo-doo
