Pete & The Pirates Washing Powder
Is that your washing powder
Little voice I hear getting louder
It's one stupid thing to remind me
Of somebody I thought was behind me
Yes, they came back, and pushing the knife in
Slow down, you're caught in a whirlwind
I will hire a private detective
Trying to work it out in the end dear
Hey, don't just stand there
There's no point in empty hands
And wheres your boy tonight
I wonder do you realise
What you have done
Cos I'm not pretending
No more tricks and no more games
My tail's between my legs now
Yes, you keep talking and talking
Looking nice and isn't it boring
Then somebody else
Who's wearing your perfume
Walks by and that really confuses me
So come back
Stop pushing the knife in
Slow down, you're caught in a whirlwind
I will hire a private detective
Trying to work it out in the end dear
Hey, don't just stand there
There's no point in empty hands
And wheres your boy tonight
I wonder do you realise
What you have done
Cos I'm not pretending
No more tricks and no more games
My tail's between my legs now
And look at your hair
Well that's not you
And you paint your face
I still see through
It's just your washing powder
Like a voice i hear getting louder
One stupid thing to remind me
Of somebody i thought was behind me
Yes, they came back, and pushing the knife in
Slow down, you're caught in a whirlwind
I will hire a private detective
Trying to work it out in the end dear
Hey, just don't stand there
There's no point in empty hands
And wheres your boy tonight
I wonder do you realise
What you have done
Cos I'm not pretending
No more tricks and no more games
My tail's between my legs now
It's just your washing powder
Little voice i hear getting louder
One stupid thing to remind me
Of somebody i thought was behind me
