[Verse 1] As merry as the days were long I was right and you were wrong Back at the old grey school I would win and you would lose But youve got everything now Youve got everything now And what a terrible mess Ive made of my life Oh, what a mess Ive made of my life [Chorus 1] No, Ive never had a job Because Ive never wanted one Ive seen you smile But Ive never really heard you laugh So who is rich and who is poor? I cannot say... oh You are your mothers only son And youre a desperate one Oh... But I dont want a lover I just want to be seen... oh... In the back of your car [Verse 2] A friendship sadly lost? Well this is true...and yet, its false, oh... But did I ever tell you, by the way? I never did like your face, oh... But youve got everything now Youve got everything now And what a terrible mess Ive made of my life Oh, what a mess Ive made of my life [Chorus 2] No, Ive never had a job Because Im too shy Ive seen you smile But Ive never really heard you laugh So who is rich and who is poor? I cannot say... oh Oh... You are your mothers only son And youre a desperate one Oh... But I dont want a lover I just want to be tied... oh... to the back of your car To the back of your car To the back of your car To the back of your car To the back of your car To the back of your car Oh...
car, back, mess, never, made
