The Boy Met the Angel
There's a girl in the corner shop and she don't care
About her reputation or the clothes she wears
She's got an angel in her pocket
To know that she has got it makes her smile
She had a situation with the boy next door
He really loved her kisses but she wanted more
She put him in her pocket and totally forgot that he was there
The boy met the angel and then everything was right
The boy met the angel in the pocket of her life
She bought herself some roller skates to roll to school
The boy inside her pocket thought the ride was cool
So on a daily basis, she put him through his paces by her side
He tried to break if off with her and get the bus
She told him that he couldn't and he made a fuss
So she put him in her pocket and totally forgot that he was there
The boy met the angel and then everything was right
The boy met the angel in the pocket of her life
The lack of contraception was a risk they took
His perfect sense of rhythm got them off the hook
Until they took up drinking and put a stop to thinking on their feet
She gradually got bigger as the days moved on
He would like a daughter but she wants a son
So she put him in her pocket and totally forgot that he was there
The boy met the angel and then everything was right
the boy met the angel in the pocket of her life
It was early in the morning when her waters broke
Snow was falling thickly meant there was no hope
Of anybody helping of anybody coming to their aid
He got himself positioned down the business end
Slid his thumb to FaceTime and he phoned a friend
Who talked him through the motions
Testing his devotion to the edge
The boy saw the angel and then everything was right
The boy heard an angel crying on that winters night
The boy held the angel and then everything was right
The boy held his daughter on the first day of her life
About her reputation or the clothes she wears
She's got an angel in her pocket
To know that she has got it makes her smile
She had a situation with the boy next door
He really loved her kisses but she wanted more
She put him in her pocket and totally forgot that he was there
The boy met the angel and then everything was right
The boy met the angel in the pocket of her life
She bought herself some roller skates to roll to school
The boy inside her pocket thought the ride was cool
So on a daily basis, she put him through his paces by her side
He tried to break if off with her and get the bus
She told him that he couldn't and he made a fuss
So she put him in her pocket and totally forgot that he was there
The boy met the angel and then everything was right
The boy met the angel in the pocket of her life
The lack of contraception was a risk they took
His perfect sense of rhythm got them off the hook
Until they took up drinking and put a stop to thinking on their feet
She gradually got bigger as the days moved on
He would like a daughter but she wants a son
So she put him in her pocket and totally forgot that he was there
The boy met the angel and then everything was right
the boy met the angel in the pocket of her life
It was early in the morning when her waters broke
Snow was falling thickly meant there was no hope
Of anybody helping of anybody coming to their aid
He got himself positioned down the business end
Slid his thumb to FaceTime and he phoned a friend
Who talked him through the motions
Testing his devotion to the edge
The boy saw the angel and then everything was right
The boy heard an angel crying on that winters night
The boy held the angel and then everything was right
The boy held his daughter on the first day of her life
