Intro

Verse
You can put it down to lack of patience
You can put it down to lack of sleep
But it's in my head to stay in bed
Tucked under the sheets
They said if you try to get on I'd get on
They said there were changes
But now my chance has gone
Chorus
And I know what you think
What you think about me
Thoughts like that sink home
To you we're not deep
Ba ba ba ba ba baa
Ba ba ba ba ba baa
Ba ba ba ba ba baa
Ba ba ba ba ba baa
Verse
Now it may be a sad reflection
On the way young people feel
But early monday morning
Is losing it's appeal
I open my curtains at 7am
Just so you think I'm up with the rest of the men
Chorus
And I know what you think
What you think about me
Thoughts like that sink home
To you we're not deep
Ba ba ba ba ba baa
Ba ba ba ba ba baa
Ba ba ba ba ba baa
Ba ba ba ba ba baa
Breakdown (Bass, drums & vocals only)
You'd do yourself a favour if you gave yourself a break
But that's one risk you'd never take
The evenings yours, the mornings mine
But don't knock me, I'm doing fine
You'd do yourself a favour if you gave yourself a rest
But just for now you know what's best
Chorus
And I know what you think
What you think about me
Thoughts like that sink home
To you we're not deep
Ba ba ba ba ba baa
Ba ba ba ba ba baa
Ba ba ba ba ba baa
Ba ba ba baa
