| | <poem> | ||
| {{{ | On the day that your mentality | ||
| | catches up with your biology | ||
| | I want the one I can't have | ||
and it's driving me mad | |||
it's written all over my face | |||
(repeat) | |||
A double-bed | |||
and a stalwart lover, for sure | |||
these are the riches of the poor | |||
A double-bed | |||
And a stalwart lover, for sure | |||
These are the riches of the poor | |||
(refrain) | |||
A tough kid who sometimes swallows nails | |||
raised on Prisoner's Aid | |||
he killed a policeman when he was | |||
thirteen | |||
and somehow that really impressed | |||
me | |||
it's written all over my face | |||
On the day that your mentality | |||
catches up with your biology | |||
And if you ever need self-validation | |||
just meet me in the alley by the | |||
railway-station | |||
it's all over my face | |||
