The libertines - Up The Bracket
Saw two shadowed men on the Vallance Road
Said they'd pay me for your address
Oh, I was so bold
To say, "you see these two cold fingers
These crooked fingers I show?"
You a way to mean no
Well, they didn't like that much I can tell you
Said, "sunshine I wouldn't wanna be in your shoes"
Then they chased me up three flights of stairs
Caught me in the lift,I sighed and said, "hello"
But it's impossible
And it's just like he's in another world
He doesn't see the danger on show
Now he'll end up like Joseph bloody in the hole
And it's just like she's in another world
And how they suit each other, oh no
But you never get close
(Oh, it's impossible) Saw the same two men on the Cally road
Said now they double their offer
I was so bold
To say, "you see these two cold fingers I know
These crooked fingers I show?"
Oh, you a way to mean no
But it's just like he's in another world
He doesn't see the danger on show
Now he'll end up like Joseph bloody in the hole
It's just like she's in another world
And how they suit each other, oh no
But you never get close
It's unstoppable
And it's just like we're all in another world
And how we suit each other, oh no
But you never get close
That's close enough now…
