Your Cover's Blown - Miaoux Miaoux Remix

Lyrics

Say what you want and leave your shyness home, and you should
 Do what you want and write a little poem
 Leave it for her and live another day, and you should
 Leave it for her the girl around the way
 ♪
 Write down a list of things you want to do, and then you
 Leave it in work because you want to live a little
 Pick up the girl in someone's borrowed mini
 Take her to dinner, use her boyfriend's money
 Hey lady, put the phone down
 Cancel all operations
 Tell your friends to cool it
 Your cover's blown, I want to see you alone
 Cancel all operations
 Tell your friends to cool it
 Your cover's blown
 ♪
 Planning a break is such a tricky thing
 Because you move to the country, she comes back again
 And then you move to the city but she goes abroad
 Is she telling you something, is she getting bold?
 ♪
 I'll make a rough plan to sleep around,
 I'm in a rut I need a change,
 I'm a lazy rat if I am honest
 My bold change of tack will fade out with the summer
 I've got no appetite and all the girls are bummers
 My baby doesn't look at me
 The way I want her to look
 She doesn't comprend
 My baby's got it going on
 She's got a friend hid in every street in this town
 I want to go out but there's nobody home
 I'll go on my own
 ♪
 Thus starts the lonely walking
 There's always too much talking
 I should have stayed home
 She starts her cool caressing
 The kid, she starts undressing
 I should've stayed home
 The dj's picking up speed
 That's something I just don't need
 I should've stayed home
 The gossip's bearing down on me
 The kids are pairing off in front of me
 I should've stayed home
 I should've stayed home
 I think I'll go home
 ♪
 Listen lady, put your phone down
 Cancel all operations
 Tell your friends to cool it
 Your cover's blown I want to see you alone
 Cancel all operations
 Tell your friends to cool it
 Listen lady, leave your phone down
 Cancel all operations
 Tell your friends to cool it
 Your cover's blown I need to see you alone
 Cancel all operations
 Tell your friends to cool it
 Hey lady, meet my mum and dad
 You're a strange aberration
 In this land of potted plants and boxlike houses
 Where the girls like mouses
 Breathe a long sigh of resignation
 You resign yourself to keep on growing
 Like the seeds you're sowing
 You're a strange apparition In this land of grammar schools and gala days
 The ladies set in their ways
 You had a long conversation with the kid next door
 He's a little slow
 But in your favour, it shows
 Cancel all operations
 Tell your friends to move out to the sticks
 ♪
 Listen lady, leave the boy home
 Cancel all operations
 Tell your friends there's more to you than this
