For five weeks now we’ve been together. And we’ve shared so many wonderful things. So many different places; so many nights out. I’ve spent so much money that I’ve almost lost count. The last thing I wanna do is be that guy, But I’m afraid I can’t sustain this lifestyle. I wanna buy you roses, I wanna get you champagne by the glass, But writing these love songs doesn’t generate much cash. So for now, how does this sound… I’m gonna treat us to a meal deal, girl. You can choose any sandwich you like. As long as it’s in the meal deal, girl. For just £3.29, We can get some Nik Naks, Maybe a flapjack. But it’s one or the other, ‘cause they both qualify as a snack. You can pick your favourite liquid refreshment, As long as it comes from the designated section. Gonna treat you so nice this lunchtime, With a meal deal. I’m not suggesting that we never go out for dinner. I’m just saying let’s focus for now on lunch. We could take a bus out to the countryside, Try and find a seat. But we can’t venture too far, The point is that it’s cheap. Luther Vandross said the best things in life are free, So why don’t you come round to mine this afternoon and we’ll just watch Come Dine With Me repeats. I wanna buy you roses, Take you to expensive galleries, But love song writers don’t get great salaries. So until I do, I’ll see you at Boots… Gonna get you a meal deal, girl. We’re gonna have such a great lunchtime. With our meal deal, girl. You can choose anything your heart desires. Such as a New York Deli or an Egg Mayonnaise, Or an Avocado Crayfish or a little sushi tray. And if this song becomes a hit and I make a decent wage, Then maybe we can come back and choose something from the premium range. Gonna treat you so fine, With a meal deal.

She, she had one job. She ran The Old Dog (the pub). But not now she not. Why? Coz she too hot. (She fit). I've, I've got one job too. It's not too bad, But bin men get sad. Any one can see, She the one for mee. But how can one ask her out? All eye can say, it's... Did you put the bin out for the bin guy? It's all I'll ask. Did you put the bin out for the bin guy? It's all bin men ask. It's bin day - did you put the bin out? Plz say yes - yes, you put the bin out. It's all eye can ask her. [SAX] Did you put the bin out for the bin guy? It's all I'll ask. Did you put the bin out for the bin guy? It's all bin men ask. It's bin day - did you put the bin out? Plz say yes - yes, you put the bin out. All eye can ask her, it's did you put the bin out for the bin guy.

Have you seen 'The Wire'? What, you've never seen 'The Wire'? You really need to see 'The Wire'. Can't believe you've never seen 'The Wire'! What about 'Mad Men'? And all six seasons of The Americans? 146 episodes of The Walking Dead? You’ve still not seen 'Breaking Bad' yet? We just finished the first season of 'The Mandalorian'. And then we rewatched the entirety of 'Better Call Saul' again. Just while we wait for the next series of 'Stranger Things'. And also that new Netflix show they’re doing based on 'Tiger King' - don't know if you heard about that? It’s so mad you’ve still not finished Game of Thrones! We’ve got the 30-disc BluRay box set if you want it on loan. I can’t understand how you missed out on the new Twin Peaks, And Westworld, True Detective, Ozark, Mindhunter, The Crown and Killing Eve... Penelope, I can't keep up with all this stuff you're recommending me. I don't know what I should do, I just can't get through these TV dramas I'm supposed to. And in addition, how can you afford to have so many of these subscriptions To different streaming platforms? Do you really need them all? When you can get Seinfeld for free on All4? And what I really don't get, is how you find the time to watch so many box sets, And still watch normal stuff too, like Masterchef and the news And go to work and do all the jobs that need doing. There’s just not enough time in the day.

I only went in to get wellington boots ‘Cause a friend had insisted on going camping in the Lake District for his stag do. Never really been the type of guy to kill time in a sports retailer. I saw the World Cup final and I played a bit of netball as a teenager. But all the ski-boots, bikes, dumbbells got me feeling a bit out of my depth. Then I saw you and you took away my breath. Well this feeling’s new to me. Never thought I’d be so enamoured with a store employee so outdoorsy. 
But this is more than a crush, now, I think I’m in love with the girl who works on checkout six in Decathlon. Haven’t known her that long But all I hear is birdsong When I see that girl on checkout six in Decathlon. Yes, I’ve fallen headlong. Chemistry? We had none. But it’s early days, we only met for 40 seconds. You complemented me on my unusually small feet.
 “You know these are from the childrens section, right...?” When our fingers touched very briefly as you gave me the receipt, You can’t deny the electricity. I know we’ve probably got nothing in common. You clearly like the great outdoors, and I’m allergic to pollen. She’s got a tan, I’ve got anaemia. She looks like she spends her winters skiing, I’ve never been, yeah. Bet she rides a bike to work, I work home in PJs. She’s got a Fitbit, I’ve just got this watch off eBay. So we don’t share the same aesthetic. Maybe you’re looking for a boy who’s unathletic. You can teach me snowboarding I’ll play you all my recordings Show me how to be sporty I’ll show you how to play the organ We’ll both find it so rewarding Having pancakes every morning And then you’ll go and start your shift in Decathlon. Got these feelings so strong. All I hear is birdsong When I see that girl on checkout six in Decathlon. So glad I didn’t stay home. Could have got these boots from Amazon. But if I had done I’d have never even met you. Dreaming of the next time we can be together. (We can be together). Gonna have to pop back in and browse the badminton accessories or golf sweaters (Until I catch your eye). Gazing at you from the table-tennis section. (Table-tennis section). Actually I’ve just watched that series, 'YOU', on Netflix and on reflection, maybe this song’s a bit much? Is it maybe a bit creepy? Yeah.

Well, girl, I got some new jeans last night Can you look and tell me if they fit? She said "mm-mm-mm" "They’re a little too tight - I can see your bits". I said, truth be told, they are cut quite close I’m in a world of pain. Now pass me over those bedsheets Take me home I think it’s happened again. M-m-my baby like hot things (Lahmlahlah) Well drink my body in (Hallelujah) But my face is crumbling (Oh-oh-ah) Darling you know… My heart wanna love My heart wanna love My heart wanna love But my lips haven’t healed yet My heart wanna love My heart wanna love But my lips are still bleeding All my friends spend all their time kissing But not me, with the shape that my lips are in. My heart wanna love My heart wanna love My heart wanna love But my lips haven’t healed yet. She told me that I’m better when I’ve had tequila Said I dress like a dad at the beach, yeah But ask my friends, I’m just like Jack Reacher I’ll take you to a castle and darling I’ll treat ya nice Like buying you flowers for Easter I’ll take you to Suffolk or somewhere south-easterly Or Galway if you’ve never been there She said stop it, you’re just not Ed Sheeran.

Well, it’s your birthday and that’s probably a fact. Unless it’s not your birthday, in which case just skip this track. I made this song to present to you In the hope it generates me some revenue. Nearly 18 million people share a birthday every day. That’s nearly 18 million potential Spotify plays. And now the birthday song’s no longer under copyright I can do my own recording and charge as much as I like. So happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to whoever. Happy birthday to you. Well it’s a number of years since you came out of your mother Maybe you became somebody’s sister or a brother Or maybe you didn’t – maybe you’re an only child It’s not really relevant, just trying to fill these lines. Because the thing about these songs, there’s nothing really to say Except for well done, I hope you have a good day. You’re one year older, one year closer to death So, I guess, just try to enjoy the time you have left. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to whoever. Happy birthday to you. Here’s to the one day a year that’s just for you And 18 million other people. I can’t think of a better way to celebrate Than playing this song over and over again… and again.

Bad Bad Boy 03:37
I’ve never been that guy who sticks to the rule-book. You know that much, ‘cause, girl, we share the same outlook. Life’s just too short to spend your days sitting quietly. So let’s go out and be a menace to society. I may not be the hero you deserve, But I’m the one you know you need right now. Guess I’ll be sleeping on the floor tonight, But you’ll still see me in the morning. Yes, I’ll be sleeping on the floor tonight, baby, But you know I’ll be there in the morning. Wo-oh, o-oh, o-oh, o-oh oh oh Wo-oh, o-oh, o-oh, o-oh oh oh, hey! Wo-oh, o-oh, o-oh, o-oh oh oh 'Cause I've been a bad, bad boy. Guess I messed up; I may have crossed the line somewhere. But show me where to go to fix it and I’ll run there. Nobody’s perfect, but you know that I ain’t nobody. We go together like I’m Batman and you’re Robin. Hey girl, caught you looking right at me, right at me, right at me. See me in my leather jacket and you just can’t resist me, resist me, you just can’t resist me. You and I were always meant to be. Look me in the eyes and tell me you disagree.

Roll up at the club looking FLIPPERCANORIOUS. Got my SPATTERDASHES on and I‘m feeling LUSORIOUS. Ladies like EGAD! when they see me moving across the dancefloor A chance for some potential FIRKYTOODLING. Step into my SYMPSOSIUM. We be CONJOBBLING and FRECKING up on the podium.

It’s the B-R-E double-T Domino. Bringing back terminology you probably don’t know. Not even in your memory A different century A whole vocabulary ‘bout to go the way of the dodo. So. Don’t be a HODDYPEAK - get in on the action. Start to integrate this lexicon until it get traction. You wanna find me, I’ll be – down in the tavern Getting BLOOTERED with my pewter cup. QUAFFTIDE klaxon. Get BUMPSY. Get BUMPSY. Don’t bang your bonce, ‘cause we’re gonna get clumsy. BEEP BEEP. Uh. All aboard the MUCKIBUS. Getting BENE-BOWSIE. Every last one of us.

Everybody got them DROP CROTCH JEANS. (Like other pairs of jeans, but with the crotch much lower). Taking it back to 2017. (They're just like normal jeans, but with the crotch much lower). Yeah, I got that air flow That seam low That space between my thighs. It's where my snacks is Quick access Just check out the length of my flies. Bieber got them drop crotch Drake got them drop crotch Ladies love them drop crotch Pair them up nice with a crop top. Why's your crotch up there? Please. Look at my crotch - it's down by my knees. Take it even lower, boy, you can't compete. Yeah, it's just a sack with holes for my feet. DROP CROTCH JEANS. (They're just like high crotch jeans but with the crotch down lower). DROP CROTCH JEANS. (They make all the other crotches look just mediocre). Look at CARA DELEVINGNE'S. (Her crotch so low that she has to walk slower). DROP CROTCH.

Baby, would I lie to you? Baby, do you think I’m lying to you? Uh, would I ever lie to you? You know, baby, I would never ever lie to you. I think of you when I’m alone I’ve been to London, Paris and Tokyo You know that I could be your Romeo But you treating me like Pinocchio. Uh, you treating me like a little wooden boy Well, girl, I’m telling you for you I do got wood, and boy! I’d let you pull my strings any day; I’m your puppet baby Spinning right round and round, like a record player. You’re running round my thoughts everyday Doing laps of the tennis courts in my brain. Let’s stop, take a break, we could go to Stockholm Or another capital city like Helsinki or Rome. Home? We could stay in, get a pizza watch some Netflix. Kisses on the sofa from Brett’s lips. We could share a tray of jumbo fish and chips. Pop the cork on a bottle of cheap fizz. I think of you when I’m alone I’ve been to London, Paris and Tokyo You know that I could be your Romeo But you treating me like Pinocchio. Seems like I’m always flying solo Whether to London, Paris or Tokyo I don’t have to be this lonely, though But you keep treating me like Pinocchio. Uh. Well I’ve Seen the film and I don’t resemble the character In any way. And anyway, who made you a barrister Of character assassination? So in the animation You’d be the bad guy fox, giving me aggravation. You’re saying I’m a liar, that my pants are on fire My attire’s noncombustible, it’s stylish and functional. Let’s put this all behind us, I’m a lover not a fighter That’s what makes me so damn loveable. Baby, would I lie to you? Baby, do you think I’m lying to you? Uh, would I ever lie to you? You know, baby, I would never ever lie to you.
