Verse 1
Em 
I opened up the paper yesterday
B 
Could not find a single article to read
Em 
Took your number and
then wrote it on my hand
B 
Looked for a copy in a newspaper stand
Em 
See I'm not all that
impressive first thing
This old brain doesn't answer
B 
on the first ring
Em 
So  despite seemingly
B 
impossible objectives
Em 
B 
I kept walking and all
the while whistling
Em 
Come to think of it
I can't remember what the song was
B 
It was probably one of the
Em 
songs you girls wrote
Car horns told me
I was too close to the curb though
Ya fuck around and I've
been running with a Peugeot
B 
Shake my fist like a grumpy old man
Ha!
Em 
Some of these drivers
B 
they need help from Dr. Chang
Em 
Get a good set of eyes,
setter then a pause
Content with my process
B 
I  enter the store
Em 
Hey! Can I get a hey -ho?
Hell no!
But you can get a card for
their payphone
Woah!
No tabloid, me broadsheet boy
Feed fox to the crocs,
B 
Em 
yeah that's Earthy's Oi
B 
Em 
B 
No tears
Em 
B 
Yeah
Em 
Ooh, thanks ma  'am
B 
Yeah, I'll take one of those
Em 
Pointing at the phone cards
B 
That swiped me a rose
Em 
Keeping it for later, lady
B 
Em 
Plus I need these papers groaning
B 
Em 
She fired up a pocket calculator
Hate the coffee maker
working next door
So it's straight to the park
Where I can read about the world at war
Fell away, but I couldn't
recall his name
He said, what's my birthday?
I said, not much man
Then, classic awkward
conversation ensued
B 
Without much to talk about,
Em 
we looked confused
B 
Scraped out my eyeballs, wandered away
Em 
B 
Well, maybe not quite,
Em 
but you know what I'm saying
B 
Finished with the news in three hours
Em 
Brushed off my trousers
B 
The kids from their council houses
Em 
B 
Kicked me a ball that I kicked back
Em 
B 
Knocked a poor fella down
from the impact
Em 
Sorry mate
B 
Back on my way, I was moving
Em 
Off to the phone booth,
see what the lady's doing
The phone's busy
For the afternoon edition,
B 
Em 
very little head change
So I'm here just racking my brains
I need it now
C 
Em 
I wanna feel the touch
Investigate if they'll trust
Nowhere brush
And I need it out
I need it now
I wanna feel the touch
Investigate if they'll trust
Nowhere brush
And I need it out
I need it now
B 
Em 
Gotta go, gotta go
And I'm needy at heart, need me now
B 
Em 
B 
Em 
Gotta  go, gotta go
And I'm needy at heart, need me now
This is crazy, I'm just waiting for
my girlfriend to get back,
I'm waiting for guys to
finish my interview,
and I was checking out my horoscopes,
and BAM!
B 
Shit, I even did the crossword,
Em 
watching the trains come and go,
B 
wondering if I lost her
Em 
B 
Asked the train guard for the time,
Em 
he looked blank, said I gotta see your ticket,
I said f*** thanks
The kind of attitude that make you smirk,
but I keep it cool baby and I play superb
Shrug my shoulders, slouched by the curb,
so fast past the cards
B 
that the newspaper acted a bird
Em 
Can't read no more,
now I'm eating it out
B 
And things change so quick
Em 
without a seed of a doubt
Just for now, I decide to wait patiently
Read out a two -ton sign,
stood vacantly
Halfway through a mental note to myself
You arrive, I've been waiting
B 
like a blood type
But it's alright,
Em 
slide both arms around you
It gets no better, no headlines
B 
We're just heading home
Em 
together
Counterfeit, that's us
Investigate, deflate, you trust
No airbrush, and I'm eating out
We need you now
I'm to fix this
B 
Em 
Investigate the flaws you trust
No airbrush
And I'm need you now
B 
Em 
We need you now
And I'm need you now
B 
Em 
We need you now
And I'm need you now
It's time to meet him right now!
