[00:09.86]
[00:11.86]The temptation is all too great,
[00:14.71]To know it's gone and it's all too late,
[00:17.36]I tried and I tried but I never applied,
[00:20.22]To any of the Morals that I wish I had.
[00:23.22]
[00:33.09]You wait fifty one weeks,
[00:34.97]Through all of your hides and all of your seeks,
[00:38.47]When the time finally arrives,
[00:40.75]It dawns on me that your attention derives,
[00:44.09]From the girlfriend that you left at home,
[00:46.94]Sitting in the living room all alone.
[00:50.19]You hate the suntan,
[00:51.56]And you can't stand to be around the short sleeve man,
[00:55.40]And the gaggles of girls who are singing too loud,
[00:57.96]Well they do my head in.
[01:00.44]You hate the tattoos
[01:02.00]and you can't handle the skinheads,
[01:03.94]The ones who cannot handle their booze,
[01:06.50]Their making you scared to be proud,
[01:09.46]are ya scared to be proud
[01:11.97]How can that still be

[01:26.34]but if you bide your time and you stand there
[01:30.33]and you wait in line,
[01:32.05]It won't be long before her sarong
[01:34.71]is lying on your bedroom floor,
[01:37.36]But what about your girlfriend that you left at home,
[01:40.83]Sitting in her living room all alone.
[01:44.05]You hate the suntan,
[01:45.52]And you can't stand to be around the short sleeve man,
[01:49.12]And the gaggle of girls who are singing too loud,
[01:51.88]Well they do my head in.
[01:54.20]You hate the tattoos
[01:55.64]and you can't handle the skinheads,
[01:57.49]The ones who cannot handle their booze,
[01:59.98]Their making you scared to be proud.
[02:02.91]How is that that still allowed
