Lyrics I Can't Put My Finger On It - The Housemartins

I Can't Put My Finger On It

As martin said to xanthe
As they played with wooden toys
You may have wendy’s playhouse
But where the heel’s your boys?
As paul said to fifi
As they eyed each other up You may have better plimsoles
But you can’t pee standing up And I’d like to take the time to bite
Their neck and make it bleed
Or maybe I could cut holes in their
Daddy’s harris tweed
And I can’t put my finger on it Maybe it’s something in their food
And I cna’t put my finger on it All I know is christ would’ve sued
As sharon said to jamie
As they sat down for a chat
If you think I’m cooking dinner
Well, prepare to eat dead rat
As debbie said to alex
As they held hands in the park
How come you wear rupert check
When you think you’re so hard
I should’ve done his land rover
To let him know I’d been
Instead I wrote f' off
On the dirt across his screen
And I can’t put my finger on it Maybe it’s something in their food
And I cna’t put my finger on it All I know is christ would’ve sued
I wish I’d let them know that I was here
A drop of arsenic in the wine
Sulphuric acid in the beer
