Chips |
She was dancin' with me for two or three songs |
I was doin' alright until he came along |
Now she’s holdin' his hand and they walk out the door |
It’s just a big bag of chips and a burger to go |
Cuser could have kept it under his hat |
Boasting that he spent all night in her flat |
Telling me things that i don’t want to know |
It’s just a big bag of chips and a burger to go |
They were outside the chip shop, herself and his gills |
I offered her a chip and i nearly got killed |
She said «i'm a vegan, that smell gets up my nose» |
It’s just a big bag of chips and a burger to go |
(fast food late at night) |
Vinegar tears |
Salt in my wounds |
And the ketchup like my poor bleeding heart |
Now i’m left standing out in the cold |
Just wondering where all them couples are goin' |
My only companions on the way home |
It’s just a big bag of chips and a burger to go |
We’ve gone all post-modern or so they’d like us to think |
But it’s still a sliced-pan and a carton of milk |
Out for a pint with people ya know |
And a big bag of chips and a burger to go |
A big bag of chips and the burger’s gone cold… |
