Sometimes The Wheels

    Knock on the door
    It's early morning
    Man in a suit says he wants to talk to me
    About the big JC
    Who the feck is he?
    Says he was a man just like you and me
    Oh woopeee dee

    I don't like his suit
    And I don't like his tie
    I don't like the fact he's so happy
    It can't be for me
    The big JC

    Sometimes the wheels fall off
    Sometimes you can't get up
    Sometimes I just sit and think
    and I don't talk much
    Sometimes the world moves fast
    Sometimes you can't keep up
    Sometimes I just sit and think
    But I don't think much

    Boy on the pavement
    He's looking a picture
    He looks like the eighties
    Oh why did it happen to me?
    Twice in a life time now
    Twice in a life time lord
    Spent my teenage years tryna not look like
    Somebody like him
    What can you do

    Shoulderpads and belts
    Morten Harket in tights
    Oh I'm sorry they're jeans
    How dya get them on
    Will they ever come off?
    Will they ever come off

    Sometimes the wheels fall off
    Sometimes you can't get up
    Sometimes I just sit and think
    and I don't talk much
    Sometimes the world moves fast
    Sometimes you can't keep up
    Sometimes I just sit and think
    But I don't think much

    Knock on the door
    It's early evening
    It's dangerous Dave
    He's come to break my house
    Cos he's a dangerous sod
    But I like him a lot

    And we talk about music and we talk about friends
    Before we realise that we don't know
    Much about either of them
    That's the way things are
    Between dave and me

    Shoulderpads and belts
    Morten Harket in tights
    Oh I'm sorry they're jeans
    How dya get them on
    Will they ever come off?
    Will they ever come off

    Sometimes the wheels fall off
    Sometimes you can't get up
    Sometimes I just sit and think
    and I don't talk much
    Sometimes the world moves fast
    Sometimes you can't keep up
    Sometimes I just sit and think
    But I don't think much
