Let Me Finish - The Drowners

Let Me Finish Lyrics

Just what time of night do you call this?
No, Im not all right. Ive said this before
but you havent heard.
Let me finish, I said let me finish.
(How long did it take before you rung the doorbell?)
Hairs combed, and your ties a little too perfect.
No more alibis, no more stupid lies, what a fool Ive been!
Let me finish, I said let me finish.
Wait a minute youll get your turn,
its not often I get the chance to talk.
Its getting harder to hide that Im no spring chicken.
Forevers not as long as it used to be.
Never thought I would ever say,
keep Manhattan, give me Muswell Hill.
Sick of looking at your fair-off sweaters
and your constant sneezing when the pollens high.
(No I dont want a drink.) Not yet.
Ive rehearsed these next lines for ages.

Why do I feel cold?
I suppose its nerves. I dont need a drink.
Its not the end of the world if you lose me!
Ive made up my mind, I think that I have.
I dont care if the neighbors hear!
You always say us British are too reserve.
I somehow hope that you would tell me
youve found somebody else, not now.
Let me finish.
Youll get your chance to call me a child.
I dont want to hurt you. Stop screaming.
It hurts when I hurt you.
Face facts, you and I are simply not suited.
I want kids. You wont even talk about them.
Please dont. I must not be talked into staying.
