Up To Me

Take you to the cinema

and leave you in a Wimpy Bar -

you tell me that we've gone too far -

come running up to me.

Make the scene at Cousin Jack's -

leave him to put the bottles back -

mends his glasses that I cracked -

Well that's one up to me.

Buy a silver cloud to ride -

pack the tennis club inside -

trouser cuffs hung far too wide -

well it was up to me.

Tyres down on your bicycle -

your nose feels feels like an icicle -

the yellow fingered smoky girl

is looking up to me.

Well I'm a common working man

with a half of bitter - bread and jam

and if it pleases me I'll put one on you man -

when the copper fades away.

The rainy season comes to pass -

the day-glo pirate sinks at last -

and if I laughed a bit too fast.

Well it was up to me.
