Two dozen dirty lovers
Must be a sucker for it
Cry, but I don't need my mother
Just hold my hand while I come - a decision on it
Oh...
Sooner or later
Legs give way, you hit the ground
Save it for later
Run away and let me down
Sooner or later
Black air and seven seas rotten through
But what can you do?
I don't know how I'm meant to act
Sometimes I just don't try - now now now now now now now
Oh...
Sooner or later
Legs give way, you hit the ground
Save it for later
Run away and let me down
Sooner or later
Hit the deck, you get found out
Two dozen other stupid reasons
Why we should suffer for this
Don't bother to explain them
Hold my hand while I come - to a decision
Oh...
Sooner or later
Legs give way, you hit the ground
Save it for later
Run away and let me down
Sooner or later
Run away
Run away
Run away
Run away
