Send Couldn't Get Ahead Ringtone to your Cell



Couldn't get ahead
I just couldn't get ahead


Come out of pub, the shop is closed
Come out of pub, Harry wants to know
When the next bus is
I said five or ten minutes
I had my change in my hands
The bus flashes past.
My hands are caught



Couldn't get ahead. I just couldn't get ahead.



In a week, earned money for month
Got all my jobs done
My eyelids were sick of it
Gist was I could sleep for a day?
But bad bills have no respect for a decent man's rest
Flopping on the doorstep
Outlined in color red



Couldn't get ahead. Just couldn't get ahead.



On an Asiatic plane with wings not of the grain
Toilet queue was endless
Couldn't get a beer
The hostesses were muslims
When I get in toilet,
Light flashes:



Send Couldn't Get Ahead Ringtone to your Cell
