Cantatonia - The Ballad Of Tom Jones lyrics

rate me

What did I do wrong?<br />

Oh you nearly drove me cuckoo...<br />

Am I really all that bad?<br />

You're worse than Hannibal Lecter, Charlie Manson, Freddie Krueger...<br />

Why're we still together?<br />

Oh I can't leave you till you're dead...<br />

You mean till death do us part?<br />

I mean like cyanide, strangulation or an axe to your head...<br />

<br />

It was lucky for us I turned the radio on<br />

They say that music sooths the savage beast<br />

There was something in that voice that stopped us seeing red<br />

The two of us would surely have ended up dead<br />

<br />

You stopped us from killing each other<br />

Tom Jones, Tom Jones<br />

You'll never know but you've saved our lives<br />

Tom Jones, Tom Jones<br />

I've never thrown my knickers at you...<br />

And I don't come from Wales...<br />

<br />

Still haven't solved our problem...<br />

You mean we hate each other's guts?<br />

Still wanna poison your pizza<br />

And I still wanna cut off your nuts<br />

I phoned the marriage guidance<br />

I tied the phone line round your neck<br />

I'm sick of all this hatred<br />

Oh that would be the arsenic making you sick...<br />

<br />

You were about to drive me over the edge of a cliff<br />

As I tried to jump out I knocked the stereo on<br />

You changed your mind and then slammed on the brakes<br />

It was lucky for us we bought his Greatest Hits<br />

<br />

You stopped us from killing each other<br />

Tom Jones, Tom Jones<br />

You'll never know but you've saved our lives<br />

Tom Jones, Tom Jones<br />

I've never thrown my knickers at you...<br />

And I don't come from Wales...<br />

<br />

And now our war it's over<br />

I've lost the urge to brake your neck<br />

I owe my life to "What's New Pussycat?"<br />

"Delilah" stopped me hating you and wishing your death<br />

Oh I used to call you a Satan<br />

And you were Cruella DeVil<br />

But now you call me your Delilah<br />

And now I'm not your Lucifer<br />

And I am just your pussycat<br />

<br />

Well just a word of warning now<br />

Just in case we ever get tired of his voice<br />

I know the Mafia, Godzilla, King Kong<br />

And I know an atom bomb that's going for this song<br />

<br />

You stopped us from killing each other<br />

Tom Jones, Tom Jones<br />

You'll never know but you've saved our lives<br />

Tom Jones, Tom Jones<br />

I've never thrown my knickers at you...<br />

And I don't come from Wales...<br />

<br />

You stopped us from killing each other<br />

Tom Jones, Tom Jones<br />

You'll never know but you've saved our lives<br />

Tom Jones, Tom Jones<br />

I've never thrown my knickers at you...<br />

And I don't come from Wales...
