The Beautiful South

The Beautiful South - A Little Piece Of Advice lyrics

rate me

Guard your body with the best barbed wire

And ward off foe with the fiercest of fire

But let love unguarded into the strangest of nights

Wear your dresses like they're up for hire

And leave them with your humour in the tumble dryer

And watch yourself stumble down a lane with no lights

School like life turns some men into mice

What you need now is a little piece of mouse advice

Well they say be wary of strangers

Especially if they offer you sweets

But there ain't no government health warning

On half the mad fuckers you meet

Save yourself personal tradegy

Go back to the man with the sweets

Do yourself schooling favour

Head back to the man with the sweets

Those who feared cancer never had much to say

They bored us at parties onto forty a day

They forced us into corners and onto forty a day

The dentiist's chair is the only time

That anybody ever looks at their mouth

Let the dentist give their teeth something to chatter about

School like life turns some men into mice

To avoid the rat-trap take the mouse's advice

Well they say be wary of strangers

Especially if they offer you sweets

But there ain't no government health warning

On half the mad fuckers you meet

Save yourself personal tradegy

Go back to the man with the sweets

Do yourself schooling favour

Head back to the man with the sweets
