I get my money just once a week
 Then I go walking in the High Street
 All those posters try to catch my eye
 Saying come in and buy me
 I said 'my money's
 just as good as the rest'
 You tell me straight
 you only deal in the best
 You say 'I'm not trying
 to mess you about
 But I'm afraid that I'm just clean out'

 I don't believe you when you say
 You ain't got what I want

 I met some people
 that really ought to know me
 I'm coming on strong and they're
 coming on slowly
 Talking to them
 just trying to get through
 They say 'Come back
 with something new'
 My ideas - they're as good as the rest
 You tell me straight
 you only deal in the best
 You say 'Don't come here
 wasting my time'
 You say 'I'm not a musician
 but the company's mine'

 I don't believe you when you say
 You ain't got what I want
