Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Alright, so this is is a song about anyone, it could be anyone
You're just doin' your own thing and someone comes out the blue
They're like, alright, but he's sayin', "Yeah, can I take your digits?"
And you're like, "No, not in a million years, you're nasty, please leave me alone,"
[Verse 2]
Cut to the pub on a lad's night out
Man at the bar 'cause it was his shout
Clocks this bird, and she looks okay
She caught him looking and walks his way
[Verse 3]
"Alright, darlin, you gonna buy us a drink, then?"
"Err, no, but I was thinking of buying one for your friend"
[Verse 4]
She's got no taste, hand on his waist
Tries to pull away, but her lip's on his face
"If you insist, I'll have a white wine spritzer,"
"Sorry, love, but you ain't a pretty picture,"
[Verse 5]
Can't knock 'em out, you can't walk away
Try desperately to think of the politest way to say (Sorry, yeah, fuck no)
Just get out my face, just leave me alone
And no, you can't have my number
(Why?) 'Cause I lost my phone
[Verse 6]
Oh yeah, actually, I'm  pregnant
Um, yeah, I'm havin' a baby in like six months
So no, yeah, yeah
[Verse 7]
I recognize this guy's way of thinking
As he walks over, her face starts sinking
She's like, "Oh, here we go,"
It's a routine check that she already knows
[Verse 8]
She's thinking (They're all the same)
"Yeah, you alright, baby? You look quite still. Yeah, what's your name?"
[Verse 9]
She looks in her bag, takes out a fag
Tries to get away from the guy on a blag
Can't find a light, "Use mine,"
"You see, the thing is, I just don't have the time,"
[Verse 10]
Can't knock 'em out, you can't walk away
(Can't knock 'em out, you can't walk away)
Try desperately to think of the politest way to say
(Uh, I'm really sorry, but not this time)
Just get out my face, just leave me alone
And no, you can't have my number
'Cause I lost my phone
[Verse 11]
Go away now, let me go
Are you stupid, or just a little slow?
Go away now, I've made myself clear (First thing's first)
No, it's not gonna happen, not in a million years
[Verse 12]
You can't knock 'em out, you can't walk away
(You can't knock 'em out, and you can't walk away)
Try desperately to think of the politest way to say
Just get out my face, just leave me alone
And no, you can't have my number
'Cause I lost my phone
[Verse 13]
Can't knock 'em out, you can't walk away
Try desperately to think of the politest way to say (Uh, actually, I'm gettin' married next week)
Just get out my face, just leave me alone (I mean, seriously)
And no, you can't have my number
'Cause I lost my phone
[Verse 14]
Nah, I gotta go 'cause my house is on fire
I've got, I've got herpes, err, no, syphilis
