[verse 1]
So what have we got here?
A swathe of suits and boots, tight trousered mooks, well-intentioned sorts who’d like to bend your ear.
For your good or their career?
They’re not so sincere.
It’s waving banners for their premier,
Full tilt, a click and then shift gear.
‘Cause there’s a seldom summons, that comes up only some several years.
Then they appear.
Like baby-kissing bots built to endear.
[chorus]
(We want to know your colours)
Buy me a drink first?
(We’ll give you cover)
This is happening so fast!
(Forget the others)
I feel like you’re just saying that to swing how my choice is cast?
But we’re onto you.
Ever thought of crawling back to that place you knew?
With the lovely view,
Because you can’t stick us together with your special glue.
So I guess this is “adieu” you.
[Instrumental]
[verse 2]
So what’s this now?
Once to you a stranger, now I’m your game-changer, pushing pamphlets through doors and now you see just how.
I’m the workhorse to your rusty plow.
Make your pitch I say “wow!”.
That’s what you want but somehow.
I see through it, furrow your brow.
Your jig is up, your patience struck off, guess I am now disavowed.
This I’ll allow.
Don’t darken my door with your know-how.
[chorus]
(We want to know your colours)
Buy me a drink first?
(We’ll give you cover)
This is happening so fast!
(Forget the others)
I feel like you’re just saying that to swing how my choice is cast?
But we’re onto you.
Ever thought of crawling back to that place you knew?
With the lovely view,
Because you can’t stick us together with your special glue.
So I guess this is “adieu” you.
[chorus]
(We want to know your colours)
Buy me a drink first?
(We’ll give you cover)
This is happening so fast!
(Forget the others)
I feel like you’re just saying that to swing how my choice is cast?
But we’re onto you.
Ever thought of crawling back to that place you knew?
With the lovely view,
Because you can’t stick us together with your special glue.
So I guess this is “adieu” You.
