Another Day in the Life of Mr Jones - The Limp Twins

It was the 14th day of winter and

the clouds were getting dense

I met a girl in a snooker hall

and she asked me for 10 pence

she said she

had to make a phone call

to get hold of her man

when she asked me what I did

I said as little as I can

uh-huh

You’re just who I’ve been looking for

a partner to my crime

I got this little caper

I’ve been planning for sometime

Its all up for the taking

but it’ll need two pairs of hands

just take a look through this scrap book

and I’m sure you’ll understand

uh-huh

It never stops amazing me

the things we do for currency

But I promise I will change my ways

If I get out of this alive

Well its quite some undertaking

but its not a game I play

she said its too late for that

you’ve seen my plans

I can’t let you get away

with that she whipped out a 45

and she led me to the car

a hundred miles an hour in a stolen TVR

uh-huh

Well in half an hour we’d left the bank

and in an hour we made the coast

I cracked open a bottle and

proposed ourselves a toast

I said well

heres to strangers thick as theives

and to a day well spent

and I’ll be on my way

when I get my fifty percent

she said its been a pleasure to meet you

but it really is a shame

'coz I’m gonna have to kill you now

and I don’t even know your name

My mouth filled up with thick red blood

as the bullet smashed my bones

I said let me introduce myself

they call me lucky Jones

It never stops amazing me

the things we do for currency

But I promise I will change my ways

If I get out of this alive
