A Fortnight’s Time
guitar chords lyrics
In a fortnight's time you will be mine
I'll bide my time
You're a paradigm of womankind
You could be mine
I disgust myself, but I've got to try…
I catch your eye
Would you like to go on a date with me?
And I know it's old-fashioned to say so
Five times five equals twenty five
Don't you know your times tables by now?
O-who
Don't you know?
On the last train home, you wanna phone
Instead, you rub your eyes
The reflection's grim in the windowpane
On the last train home, you wanna phone
Instead, you rub your eyes
The reflection's grim in the windowpane
It's the human stain.
So, you have a drink to erase the day…
There's another way
Would you like to go on a date with me?
And I know it's old-fashioned to say so
Five times five equals twenty five
Don't you know your times tables by now?
O-who
Don't you know?
When it comes to girls, I'm mostly hypothetical
If I list their names, it's purely alphabetical
When it comes to girls, I'm truly theoretical
If I test their nerve, it's merely dialectical
And so…
Would you like to go on a date with me?
And I know it's old-fashioned to say so
Five times five equals twenty five
Don't you know your times tables by now?
O-who
Don't you know?
I said, don't you know?
In fortnights time you will be mine
You will be mine.
