(Bass )
The pay-me girl has had enough of the bleeps
So she takes a bus into the country
(Bass )
Although she got herself rosy cheeks
She didn´t leave enough money to pay the rent
(Bass )
The landlord says that she´s out in a week
What a shame she was just getting comfy
(Bass )
Now she´s eating chocolate to induce sleep
In a chemical world it´s very, very, very cheap

And I don´t know about you
But they´re putting the holes in, yes, yes
It´s been a hell of a do
They´ve been putting the holes in, yes, yes
(Bass )
Peeping Thomas has a very nice view
Across the street at the exhibitionist
(Bass )
These townies they never speak to you
Just stick together so they never get lonely
(Bass )
Feeling lead, feeling quite light-headed
Had to sit down and have some sugary tea
(Bass )
In a chemical world, in a chemical world
It´s very, very, very cheap
