living life at home is funny
he knows a girl but he never got married
some say he''s a cause for concern

shaky Jakey''s always dancing
kids all call him up when they want some fun
10 stone but he''s getting lighter
pretty soon he''s gonna disappear

can you tell me about my life
just the basic detail
we can talk all night
a one way conversation

my friend Lucy doesn''t like boys
when she wears her cut down T shirt
it''s like she''s saying ''no don''t ask me''
it''s a funny thing but no one ever does

can you tell me about my life
just the basic detail
we can talk all night
one way conversation

it''s getting easier
now I know where I''m coming from
it''s a heavy feeling
you gotta know
what you''re in for
before you go

so can you tell me about my life
just the basic detail
we can talk all night
one way conversation

can you tell me about my life
I bet you''re someone special
we can talk all night
I think I really need to
