Hat Trick
You, can I make it known?
I'd like to take you home
You been away so long
I'd like to see you
When I saw you at the local hop
I tried to take you, but you made me stop
Then I saw that you were dancing with a rent-a-cop
Whoa, whoa
The minute you pulled me through (whoa, whoa)
You thought that, then you knew (whoa, whoa)
If not today, I'd find a way
To get to you
Just a little of nothin'
That's all you had the time to give
Just a little of nothin'
Ain't gonna make it worthwhile for me (worthwhile for me)
If you'd only have listened
You'd have heard every word I said
Just a little of nothin'
Ain't gonna make it worthwhile for me (worthwhile for me)
Nah, nah, nah, nah-nah-nah
Nah, nah, nah-nah-nah-nah
Nah, nah-nah-nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah-nah-nah, nah
Just a little of nothin'
(Just a little of nothin')
Just a little of nothin'
(Just a little of nothin')
Just a little of nothin'
(Just a little of nothin')
Just a little of nothin'
(Just a little of nothin')
Newton-under-Rose berry topping
And it's cold and it's wet
And you feel like you're part of all time
Living in the gap between the echoes
Feeling it hot and feeling it cold
As long as there are fish in the sea
Have a cup of tea
Oh, as long as there are fish in the sea
Have a cup of tea
'Cause you are running from the ring of the golden bell
Like a bat out of hell
You are running from the ring of the golden bell
Like a bat out of hell
You are running from the ring of the golden bell
Like a bat out of hell
You are running from the ring of the golden bell
Like a bat out of hell
There's a lady across the hall
She's telling me, it's all right, all right
I'm tryin' to give her my all
She's sayin', "I'm uptight"
Hell of a way to spend an afternoon
Saw a movie tonight
Got frightened and broke down, broke down
Got a call in the night, my old lady just hit town
Take her away, she's tryin' to turn me round
I'm nowhere to be found, ahh-ahh-ahh
Ahh-ahh-ahh
(Ooh)
I can't unread the pages I've already read (ooh)
And I can't feed these ages left in my head (ooh)
They're already dead, yeah
I'd like to take you home
You been away so long
I'd like to see you
When I saw you at the local hop
I tried to take you, but you made me stop
Then I saw that you were dancing with a rent-a-cop
Whoa, whoa
The minute you pulled me through (whoa, whoa)
You thought that, then you knew (whoa, whoa)
If not today, I'd find a way
To get to you
Just a little of nothin'
That's all you had the time to give
Just a little of nothin'
Ain't gonna make it worthwhile for me (worthwhile for me)
If you'd only have listened
You'd have heard every word I said
Just a little of nothin'
Ain't gonna make it worthwhile for me (worthwhile for me)
Nah, nah, nah, nah-nah-nah
Nah, nah, nah-nah-nah-nah
Nah, nah-nah-nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah-nah-nah, nah
Just a little of nothin'
(Just a little of nothin')
Just a little of nothin'
(Just a little of nothin')
Just a little of nothin'
(Just a little of nothin')
Just a little of nothin'
