Eye to Eye

i wanna be the one who's got his fingers on the button
two hands, tight grip on everything and nothing
i wanna be the one who fits in with the rest
neat hair, clean nails, pass the acid test

always pretending i'm breaking my back
sometimes it's better, adjust to the pack
borrowed and stolen
noticed by noone
affective, broken, frozen

hidden in everyone's sight

i wanna be a jack just so i can have a trade
a smile on my face so long as i get paid
i wanna be your first and i wanna be last
i wanna be the bubbles in your bubblebath

i went to the doctor, he gave me this pills
take one each morning, she'll bring back the thrills
she'll love you and leave you and kiss you goodnight
wait till you're sleeping then bite

hidden in everyone's sight
it's only the meaning that's right

one more try and we'll see eye to eye
do you keep the values to which we strive
and do you wanna see the high street survive

one more try and we'll see eye to eye
do you keep the values to which we strive?
and do you wanna see the high street survive?
one more try

the thing that keeps me up at night
that makes me think i've lost my fight
a narrow space within my mind
i think about from time to time
the going rate of a pint of milk
why have i never dipped a till?
why did i not make that joke?
why do i hate standing still?

i wanna be the one who's got his fingers on the button
i wanna be a jack just so i can have a trade
i wanna be a dog just so i can be a bitch
i just wanna find something to stop me feeling so

cold and bloody
weird and muddy
nowhere to run
you trust noone

one more try and we'll see eye to eye
do you keep the values to which we strive?
and do you wanna see the high street survive?
one more try and we'll see eye to eye
do you keep the values to which we strive?
and do you wanna see the high street survive?
one more try and we'll see eye to eye
do you keep the values to which we strive?
