Gonna take a nitcomb to get rid of me
|
Cos I just realized that it was meant to be
|
And I'm singing to all the torn betting slips
|
Flying around my feet
|
I'm talking to all the chewing gum
|
That's stuck everywhere on the street
|
And they're ringing the bells all over the city on a Saturday night
|
Nobody knows why, but they know its gonna be alright
|
|
Cos it's gonna take a nitcomb to get rid of me
|
Cos I just realized that it was meant to be
|
I'm standing at the sale of the shoes of bankrupt men
|
I just had to buy a pair to show I can live again
|
They're ringing the bells all over the city on a Saturday night
|
Nobody knows why, but they know its gonna be alright
|
|
It's gonna take a nitcomb to get rid of me
|
Cos I just realized that it was meant to be
|
And they're banging on the sheets of metal, sheets of gold
|
And these were the finest shoes that were ever sold
|
Raining on roofs, raining on drums
|
Love buys a six-pack and gives it to the bums
|
They're ringing on the bells in the city on a Saturday night
|
Nobody knows why, but they know its gonna be alright
|
