Records Starry Eyes
While you were off in France, we were stranded in the
British Isles.
Left to fall apart amongst your passports and the
files.
We never asked for miracles, but they were our concern.
Did you really think we'd sit it out and wait for your
return?
CHORUS:
I don't want to argue. I ain't gonna budge.
Won't you take this number down before you call up the
judge?
I don't want to argue. There's nothing to say.
Get me out of your starry eyes and be on your way!
While you were on the beach, were you dreaming all
about your share?
Planning to invest it all to cover wear-and-tear?
We paid for all the phone calls. The money's off the
shelf.
Don't you know that while you're gone away, I've got to
help myself?
REPEAT CHORUS
While you were in the pool, we were meeting with the
boys upstairs,
Talking to the Money Men, and carrying out repairs.
We had no time for cocktails, or working up a tan.
The boys have all been spoken to; The writ has hit the
fan.
REPEAT CHORUS
Now, I don't want to argue. There's nothing to say.
Just get me out of your starry eyes, and be on your
way!
Yeah, get me out of your starry eyes, and be on your
way!
