Lyrics & Translation

[English]

i very much enjoyed your lewisham fire

report by the way

thank you

yeah well

so

it didn't work out with daniel cleaver

no it didn't

i'm delighted to hear

look are you and cosmo in this together

i mean you seem to go out of your way to

try to make me feel like a complete

idiot every time i see you and you

really needn't bother

i already feel like an idiot most of the

time anyway

with or without a fireman's pole

that'll be my taxi

good night

look um

i'm sorry if i've been

what

i don't think you're an idiot at all

i mean there are elements of the

ridiculous about you

your mother's pretty interesting

and and you really are an appallingly

bad public speaker and um you tend to

let whatever's in your head come out of

your mouth without much consideration of

the consequences

i realized that when i met you at the

turkey curry buffet that i was

unforgivably rude and

wearing a reindeer jumper

that my mother had given me the day

before

but the thing is um

what i'm trying to say

very inarticulately is

but um

in fact

perhaps despite appearances

i like you

very much

apart from the smoking and the drinking

and the vulgar mother

and the verbal doctor i like you very

much

just as you are negative embassy please

i'm sorry i'm not quite sick

good afternoon

hi you like me just the way i am

sorry

kafir ragani have come and gone oh god

told him not to give any interviews

look

i have a plan

and action

mr darcy

you were defending mr agana you must be

delighted

yes well kathy agani has spent his

entire life defending the basic human

rights of his own people and today's

verdict has been the result of five

years of struggle by this woman elena

heaney to save the man she loves from

an extradition order that would have

been tantamount to a death sentence

oh

the door is open

i uh i came to congratulate the new face

of british current affairs

but i say i i may have come at a bad

time
