Up To Me


Take you to the cinema
and leave you in a Wimpy Bar -
you tell me that we`ve gone to far -
come running up to me.
Make the scene at Cousin Jack`s -
leave him put the bottles back -
mends his glasses that I cracked -
well that one`s up to me.
Buy a silver cloud to ride -
pack the tennis club inside -
trouser cuffs hung far too wide -
well it was up to me.
Tyres down on your bicicle -
your nose feels like an icicle -
the yellow fingered smoky girl
is looking up to me.
Well I`m a common working man
with a half of bitter - bread and jam
and if it pleases me I`ll put one on you man -
when the copper fades away.
The rainy season comes to pass -
the day-glo pirate sinks at last -
and if I laughed a bit to fast.
Well it was up to me.
