I Know What I Like Lyrics - Fish

[genesis, "selling england by the pound"] 

(t. banks / p. collins / p. gabriel / s. hackett / m. rutherford) 

It's one o'clock and time for lunch, 

Dum-dee-dum-dee-dum-dum 

When the sun beats down and I lie on the bench, 

I can always hear them talk. 

There's always been ethel: 

"jacob, wake up! you've got to tidy your room now." 

And then mister lewis: 

"isn't it time that he was out on his own? " 

Over the garden wall, two little lovebirds - cuckoo to you! 

Keep them moving blades sharp... 

I know what I like, and I like what I know; 

Getting better in your wardrobe, stepping one beyond your show. 

Sunday night, mr farmer called, said: 

"listen son, you're wasting your time; there's a future for you 

In the fire escape trade. come up to town!" 

But I remebered a voice from the past; 

"gambling only plays when you're winning" 

- I had to thank old miss mort for schooling a failure. 

Keep them moving blades sharp... 

I know what I like, and I like what I know; 

Getting better in your wardrobe, stepping one beyond your show. 

When the sun beats down and I lie on the bench, 

I can always hear them talk. 

Me, I'm just a lawnmower - you can tell me by the way I walk.
