Oh I`m back in the full effect / I can`t even hold myself erect
I got nothing that I wanna say / I`m gonna say it anyway
I know you think that I`ve lost it, baby
I know you think that my star is fading / Used to be a contender
Now you`re just a pretender / Psychic karaoke every weekend
You don`t fit those clothes anymore
Why don`t you take them back to the charity store
While you`re there you could always hand yourself in
You`re into green issues - start recycling
You hide behind your woman when you`re out in your town
Show her up and blame her for holding you down
Holding you down, holding you down
You`re the only one who`s holding you down
You`re only ever polite when you`re out of your box
Cocker`s short for... sucker / Sucker of... / Oh, oh
La na na na / Oh, oh / Sucker of... / Oh, oh / La na na na
Oh, oh / When I got up today I had that feeling again
Everything was OK, then the world started shaking
Now I`m trying to sleep it away / Oh but I can`t sleep it away
Can you answer this question, can you answer it right:
Have you ever done anything good in your life?
Have you ever done anything that wasn`t just for yourself?
Are you capable of giving? / Are you capable of giving just for
the sake of it,
without expecting anything in return?
I`m only trying to give you what you`ve come to expect
Just another song `bout single mothers and sex
Single mothers and sex, single mothers and sex
Just another song `bout single mothers and sex
OK, you`ve heard it before, it`s nothing special
But it`s a living, can`t you see / I`m a professional
Oh, oh / La na na na / Oh, oh / I`m a professional
Oh, oh / La na na na / Oh, oh / Sleep on my darling
Sleep on, don`t wake as I leave / I`ve been rehearsing this scene
so long now
Don`t interrupt me as I do it for real / The bedroom floor is treacherous
A teacup could be disastrous / `Cos it`ll mean I would have to say
What was written on the letter I posted yesterday
So that it would get here / When I was gone / And you awoke
Oh, she`ll meet me from the train / And she`ll never know a thing
About how I talk with my mouth full / And only bath once a week
How I`m nicer the first time you meet me than the next
And I`m rapidly losing interest in sex / Yeah, I`m rapidly losing
interest in sex
What`s the point in making it over-emotional? / You can do it the hard way
Or you can be a professional / Oh, oh / La na na na
Oh, oh / I`m a professional / Oh, oh / La na na na
Oh, oh / Sleep on my darling / Sleep on my love / Sleep on my darling
Sleep on my love / Sleep on my darling / Sleep on my love
Sleep on my darling / Sleep on my love
