I Spy lyrics

Artist  : Pulp 
Song : I Spy
 
I spy a boy, I spy a girl. 
I spy the worst place in the world, in the whole
world. 
Oh you didn't do bad, you made it out, I'm still
stuck here oh but I'll get out. 
Oh yeah I'll get out. 
Can't you see a walks among you seeing through
your pretty lives. 
Do you think I do these things for real?
I do these things just so I survive. And you know
I will survive. 
It may look to the untrained eye 
I'm sitting on my arse all day 
And I'm biding my time until I take you all on my
Lords and Ladies 
I will prevail, I cannot fail. 
Cause I spy. 
Oh I've got your numbers taken notes and all the
ways your minds work out. 
I've studied and your mind's just the same as
mine except that you're just clever swines
You never let masks slip, you never admit to it,
you're never hurried. 
Oh no no no.
And every night I hold my plan how I'll get my
satisfaction
How I will blow your paradise away away away ooh.
Cause I spy. 
It's just like in the old days - I used to
compose my own critical notices in my head.
The crowd gasps at Cocker's masterful control of
the bicycle
Skilfully avoiding the dog turd next to the
corner shop. 
Imagining a blue plaque above the place I first
ever felt a girl's breasts, 
the whole 'nana.
You've got to wait for the best. 
You see you should take me seriously. Very
seriously indeed. 
Cause I've been sleeping with your wife for the
past sixteen weeks
Smoking your cigarettes, drinking your brandy, 
messing up the bed you chose together. 
And in all that time I just wanted you to come
home unexpectedly one afternoon 
And catch us at it in the front room. 
You see I spy for a living and I specialise in
revenge
On taking the things I know will cause you pain. 
I can't help it, I was dragged up.
My favourite park's a car park, grass is
something you smoke, 
birds is something you shag.
Take your year in Provence and shove it right up
your arse. 
Your Ladbroke Grove looks turn me on, yeah. 
With your frightened eyes and roach burns under
your eyes and addresses
And thousands of tiny dryna-slides running a
path, 
running a path to the corner of your eyes.
And every night I hatch my plan, it's not a case
of woman v man. 
It's more a case of haves against haven'ts and I
just
happen to have got what you need, just exactly
what you need yeah. 
La la la la la la la la la la, in the midnight
hour. 
La la la la la la la la la la, I will come to
you, I will come to you
I will take you from this sickness, dinner
parties and champagne
I'll hold your body and make it sing again. come
on - sing again, let's sing again. 
Oh yeah, cause I spy, yes, I spy, ssss. 
I spy a boy and I spy a girl. 
I spy the chance to change the world, to change
your world.
