She walks me home
|
There's a Mercedes parked in our street
|
So we stop and we discuss
|
Who on earth the owner could be
|
That's just like me
|
I'd evade waking up if the alarm wouldn't ring
|
I'd walk into quick sand
|
If I knew how far I'd sink
|
Twin layers of trouble
|
Two times that might
|
Twin layers of lightning
|
Both of us can strike
|
We went into a club
|
Bouncers got no brains
|
He said both of you are barred
|
I had to set him straight
|
Listen Jack, don't you know, I'm a star
|
(chorus)
|
Some people have no money
|
While other people have no tact
|
If they invite us around
|
Well they're going to get a double act
|
We scream and we shout
|
And then we love and we turn
|
Then we set a chair on fire
|
And we watch the whole house burn
|
(chorus)
|
It's written in big letters
|
Graffiti all over town
|
It says TROUBLEMAKERS ON THE RUN
|
And both our names are written down
|
Oh but infamy or fame
|
Each came in a small dose
|
I just wish the day would come
|
When the last one would be so close
|
