Half Man Half Biscuit - Soft Verges Lyrics
So I’m walking down the roadAnd heading towards meIs somebody I knowBut not like a brotherHe’s seen me, and we both realiseThat we’re going to have to put into operationThe tricky manoeuvre that isAcknowledgement without breaking strideSo I keep my eyes fixed firmly on the ground‘Til I get within ten or so feet awayWith a nod of the headAnd a timely helloI can carry on walkingDon’t wanna get talkingRule number one – carry on walkingAnd anyway I don’t know his nameAnd if I were to guessI’d guess it all wrongAnd I’d be there for a long timeHow’s it going, where’re you livingDo you still see much of Steve?Are you married, are you workingDo you still drink in The Swan?Inside back page, Radio Times“My Kind Of Day†with the actors and actresses…I get up about six, and I have a cold showerSwitch on “Todayâ€, Vitamin CWrite some letters ’til quarter past eightWhen Olivia takes Oliver to schoolIt’s about an hour’s driveTo Shepperton from oursSo I go through the scripts in the back of the carAnd if I get hungry I’ll eat a Multigrain barWeekends are good we can walk the South Downs as a familyBut of course what most people never realiseIs that us poor actors are out of workFor ninety percent of the timeYes of course I must have missed youAt the Job Club yesterdayMaybe you were signing onOr finding out about free school mealsGary doesn’t live here anymoreGary doesn’t live here anymoreGary doesn’t live here anymoreGary took a dive from the second floor
