Oh you gave me that crocodile smile for a little while
Look like you're from New York but we're in Carlisle
You asked me to be your rhythm dancer, i'm a Scorpio, are you Cancer?
I was hesitant on my answer
I said you're a funny little thing, don't you know?
But getting up was easier than getting down
She's gone from rags to riches, from Bournemouth to the beaches, desperately reaching
Cause you're trying to be someone you're not
That Yorkshire accent won't fade away
I can see you're trying to plot
Your great American getaway escape
She said are you celebrating?
Or commiserating?
Don't you remember when mischief was entertaining?
Once upon a time
When conversations weren't a crime, and it seemed like anytime
A crocodile smile wouldn't go amiss
And you'd have been thought a lunatic to even insist
On being real important
Or stuck in someones orbit
Or acting like a knobhead
Cause you're trying to be someone you're not
That Yorkshire accent won't fade away
I can see you're trying to plot
Your great American getaway escape
