A Little Piece Of Advice Lyrics - Beautiful South

Guard your body with the best barbed wire 

And ward off foe with the fiercest of fire 

But let love unguarded into the strangest of nights 

Wear your dresses like they're up for hire 

And leave them with your humour in the tumble dryer 

And watch yourself stumble down a lane with no lights 

School like life turns some men into mice 

What you need now is a little piece of mouse advice 

Well they say be wary of strangers 

Especially if they offer you sweets 

But there ain't no government health warning 

On half the mad fuckers you meet

Can You Guess The Song By The Emojis? 

Listen To Taylor Swift's New Song 'Call It What You Want' 

Watch Sam Smith And Fifth Harmony Join James Corden For Carpool Karaoke 

Save yourself personal tradegy 

Go back to the man with the sweets 

Do yourself schooling favour 

Head back to the man with the sweets 

Those who feared cancer never had much to say 

They bored us at parties onto forty a day 

They forced us into corners and onto forty a day 

The dentiist's chair is the only time 

That anybody ever looks at their mouth 

Let the dentist give their teeth something to chatter about 

School like life turns some men into mice 

To avoid the rat-trap take the mouse's advice 

Well they say be wary of strangers 

Especially if they offer you sweets 

But there ain't no government health warning 

On half the mad fuckers you meet
