Jacob is a car mechanic, living life at home is funny
He knows a girl but he never got married, some say he’s a causefor concern
Shaky jake is always dancing, kids all call him up when they want some fun
Ten stone but he’s getting lighter, pretty soon he’s gonna disappear
Can you tell me about my life, just the basic detail
We can talk all night, a one-way conversation
My friend lucy doesn’t like boys, when she wears a cut-down t-shirt
It’s like she’s saying ’no, don’t ask me’, it’s a funny thing but no-one ever does
Can you tell me about my life, just the basic detail
We can talk all night, a one-way conversation
It’s getting easier, now I know where I’m coming from
It’s a heavy feeling, you gotta knowwhat you’re in for, before you go
Can you tell me about my life, just the basic detail
We can talk all night, a one-way conversation
Then you tell me about your life, I bet you’re someone special
We can talk all night, I think we really need to
