"Lunch Money" lyrics
"Lunch Money"
I heard you're moving to a foreign city with a friend
Well, I'm still working in the Argos stockroom back at home
Was it the work or the money that stole your blouse
Or cynical boys on the back of the bus?
They always took your lunch money by the old canal
They always took your lunch money, I don't know how
I had a dream of your arms around me
When I'd come along, I'd know that you'd hold me for days
I had a trench coat
You were my boyfriend
When I'd come along, I'd know that you'd hold me for days
I heard you're teaching once again at the conservatory
Well, I've been riding city buses daily just for a hobby
Was it the work or the money that stole your blouse
Or cynical boys on the back of the bus?
They always took your lunch money by the old canal
They always took your lunch money, I don't know how
I had a dream of your arms around me
When I'd come along, I'd know that you'd hold me for days
I had a trench coat
You were my boyfriend
When I'd come along, I'd know that you'd hold me for days
I don't believe you, son
I don't believe you
When I'd come along, I'd know that you'd hold me for days
I had a dream of your arms around me
But now I come along, you're bringing me right on down
You're bringing me right on down
Why would you bring me down?
Why would you bring me down?
I had a dream of your arms around me
When I'd come along, I'd know that you'd hold me for days
I had a trench coat
You were my boyfriend
When I'd come along, I'd know that you'd hold me for days
I don't believe you, son
I don't believe you
When I'd come along, I'd know that you'd hold me for days
I had a dream of your arms around me
But now I come along, you're bringing me right on down
You're bringing me right on down
