   INTRO:   


	   	   
   Call me morbid, call me pale

              	        
   I've spent six years on your trail

        
   Six long years

                
   On your trail


	              
   Call me morbid, call me pale

	                   
   I've spent six years on your trail

                    		   
   Six full years of my life on your trail



	      			    
   And if you have five seconds to spare

	     			            
   Then I'll tell you the story of my life :

   		       
   Sixteen, clumsy and shy

			  
   I went to London and I

                                   
   I booked myself in at the Y ... W.C.A.

                               
   I said : "I like it here - can I stay ?

                     
   I like it here - can I stay ?

                     
   Do you have a vacancy

                       
   For a Back-scrubber?"

   She was left behind, and sour
   And she wrote to me, equally dour
   She said : "In the days when you were
   Hopelessly poor
   I just liked you more..."

   And if you have five seconds to spare
   Then I'll tell you the story of my life :
   Sixteen, clumsy and shy
   I went to London and I
   I booked myself in at the Y ... W.C.A.
   I said : "I like it here - can I stay ?
   I like it here - can I stay ?
   And do you have a vacancy
   For a Back-scrubber ?"


   Call me morbid, call me pale
   I've spent too long on your trail
   Far too long
   Chasing your tail
   Oh ...

     
                                         
   And if you have five seconds to spare

                                          
   Then I'll tell you the story of my life :

                      
   Sixteen, clumsy and shy

                            
   That's the story of my life

                      
   Sixteen, clumsy and shy

                    
   The story of my life

                        
   That's the story of my life

                      
   That's the story of my life

                     
   That's the story of my life

                 ..... 
   The story of my life

(repeat / until end)
   That's the story of my life
   That's the story of my life
   That's the story of my life
   That's the story of my life
   That's the story of my life
   That's the story ...
