Obsession can sometimes go a little too far.

lyrics

It’s raining the forget-me-nots are blue
I wonder if I’m on your mind as much as my thoughts turn to you
Your smile, the way you tilt your head contemplating your next word
Be it delicious, pernicious, banal or absurd
Yes, it’s true, I only knew you for a day
But that’s just how I roll. I’m not obsessed. No way
I just always park in Bath St, use matching clothes pegs, wear slinky underwear sublime
And think about you all the time

I made enquiries. It turns out you know a friend of mine
I think that that’s auspicious like our stars are aligned
I hope you wouldn’t hurt me and I get that you’re reserved
With all those fans hanging round. They must get on your nerves
Yes, it’s true, I only knew you for a day
But that’s just how I roll. I’m not obsessed. No way
I just always park in Bath St, use matching clothes pegs, wear slinky underwear sublime
And think about you all the time
And when you come to visit, I’m sure you’re going to find
I’m not just any woman. My poisoned apple pie’s divine
And I choose to park in Bath St, use matching clothes pegs, wear slinky underwear sublime
And think about you all, just waiting for your call, think about you all the time
