I Know What I Like (in Your Wardrobe)

[genesis, "selling england by the pound"]

(t. banks / p. collins / p. gabriel / s. hackett / m. rutherford)



It's one o'clock and time for lunch,

Dum-dee-dum-dee-dum-dum

When the sun beats down and i lie on the bench,

I can always hear them talk.



There's always been ethel:

"jacob, wake up! you've got to tidy your room now."

And then mister lewis:

"isn't it time that he was out on his own?"

Over the garden wall, two little lovebirds - cuckoo to you!

Keep them moving blades sharp...



I know what i like, and i like what i know;

Getting better in your wardrobe, stepping one beyond your show.

Sunday night, mr farmer called, said:

"listen son, you're wasting your time; there's a future for you

In the fire escape trade. come up to town!"

But i remebered a voice from the past;

"gambling only plays when you're winning"

- i had to thank old miss mort for schooling a failure.

Keep them moving blades sharp...



I know what i like, and i like what i know;

Getting better in your wardrobe, stepping one beyond your show.



When the sun beats down and i lie on the bench,

I can always hear them talk.

Me, i'm just a lawnmower - you can tell me by the way i walk.
