Teddy Picker

They've sped up to the point where they provoke

The punch-line before they have told the joke

Plenty of desperation to be seen

Staring at the television screen

They've sped up to the point where they provoke you

To tell the fucking punch-line before you have told the joke

"Sorry, sunshine, it doesn't exist

It wasn't in the top 100 list."

And it's the thousandth time and it's even bolder,

Don't be surprised when you get bent over,

They told you, but you were dying for it

Saw it and she grabbed it and it wasn't what it seemed

The kids all dream of making it, whatever that means

Another variation on a theme

A tangle on the television and a magazine

D'you reckon that they do it for a joke?

D'you reckon that they make 'em take an oath?

That says that we are defenders

Of any poser or professional pretender around

When did your list

Replace the twist and turn as a fist

Replaced the kiss?

Don't concern us with your bollocks

I don't want your prayer

Save it for the morning after

And it's the thousandth time and it's even bolder,

Don't be surprised when you get bent over,

They told you, but you were gagging for it

Let's have a game on the teddy picker

Not quick enough, can I have it quicker?

Already thick, and you're getting thicker

Let's have a game on the teddy picker

Not quick enough, can I have it quicker?

Already thick, and you're getting thicker

Assuming that all things are equal?

Who'd want to be men of the people

When there's people like you?
