At Close Quarters
First time I hit that polka dot jackpot
We slotted like puzzle pieces
Of some idyllic jigsaw
Scattered on the floor
Gold mine of all your smoking hot snapshots
From onslaught to sudden ceasefire
It seems I drew the short straw
And won't be getting any more
And now you're somebody's plaything
Try and tell me it's the same
And before you lose all faith in
Just how well you play this game
All lined up
To find the key to that treasured chest
And you're leaving the bar in a taxi
To reach, tussle and grasp
For zip, buckle and clasp
You'll find I can be quite a pleasant guest
And I'll leave you to stew on your actions
And not contaminate the crime scene
Dunno where you've been
And now you're somebody's plaything
Try and tell me it's the same
And before you lose all faith in
Just how well you play this game
At close quarters we were something
Try and tell me it's the same
And if you thought I had it coming
It's just as well you'd fan the flames
And now you're somebody's plaything
Try and tell me it's the same
And before you lose all faith in
Just how well you play this game
We slotted like puzzle pieces
Of some idyllic jigsaw
Scattered on the floor
Gold mine of all your smoking hot snapshots
From onslaught to sudden ceasefire
It seems I drew the short straw
And won't be getting any more
And now you're somebody's plaything
Try and tell me it's the same
And before you lose all faith in
Just how well you play this game
All lined up
To find the key to that treasured chest
And you're leaving the bar in a taxi
To reach, tussle and grasp
For zip, buckle and clasp
You'll find I can be quite a pleasant guest
And I'll leave you to stew on your actions
And not contaminate the crime scene
Dunno where you've been
And now you're somebody's plaything
Try and tell me it's the same
And before you lose all faith in
Just how well you play this game
At close quarters we were something
Try and tell me it's the same
And if you thought I had it coming
It's just as well you'd fan the flames
And now you're somebody's plaything
Try and tell me it's the same
And before you lose all faith in
Just how well you play this game
