Get Along

[00:09.27] He's got a flat, it's just south of the river
[00:12.86] A wipe clean kitchen
[00:14.36] White as an American smile
[00:17.92] And wide as an American child
[00:19.39] He spends his weekends talking to his mother
[00:23.23] About himself and how he's got nobody to talk to (Boohoo now)
[00:29.55] He's got nobody at all
[00:33.44] I guess he can't get along, get along, get along
[00:39.99] I guess he can't get along, get along, get on
[00:49.53] He's got a flat, it's one foot on the ladder
[00:52.43] A new build, red brick
[00:54.14] 50 feet of communal grass
[00:57.70] And you can't put a price on that
[01:00.39] Loves culture, sees what he's able
[01:03.47] Spends his evenings playing house of pain on his hands
[01:08.53] And praying there's no pain when he lands
[01:13.44] I guess he can't get along, get along, get along
[01:20.43] I guess he can't get along, get along, get on
[01:27.29]
[01:45.51] It means nothing at all
[01:48.80] Until the key's in the door
[01:51.02] And the deed's in his name
[01:52.43] And he's changing every lock in the place
[01:56.08] And at the root of it all
[01:59.15] Is his reluctance to fall
[02:01.73] And it's always the same
[02:03.52] 50 minutes into work
[02:04.88] And he just keeps walking
[02:07.39] One foot then the other
[02:09.11] Beer or wine?
[02:10.54] I don't know why he bothers
[02:12.47] It's all the same
[02:14.16] And there's not an easy laugh
[02:16.09] And he wants tennis courts
[02:18.53] Swimming pools
[02:20.39] Water's warm at the Cote d'Azur
[02:23.78] Well he dreams of yachts
[02:25.17] Well quite a lot for him
[02:29.73] I guess he can't get along, get along
[02:34.64] Too up, too down, too busy to call
[02:36.85] I guess he can't get along, get along
[02:41.48] Well the smile above the Windsor seems wrong
[02:44.55] I guess he can't get along, get along, get along
[02:57.69]
