Lyrics

Staring in the window
Of the shop that never opens
Planning my selection
From all the treats inside
Should I take as I desire?
Oh shall I? Oh shall I?
Or should I hang around to be inticed inside
I'm trying to explain to myself
I can have both
I'm trying to explain to the voice inside
I can have both
I can have both
There's nobody around to say no
We've brainwashed the small shy boy inside
He doesn't know
He can have both

Smiling through the window
To the one who never serves you
I've not been feeling myself tonight
Should I take as I feel like it?
Well shall I? Oh shall I?
Or should I wait and hope 1
To be dragged inside

I'm trying to explain to myself
I can have both
I'm trying to explain to the voice inside
I can have both
I can have both
There's nobody around to say no
We've brainwashed the small shy boy inside
He doesn't know
He can have both

I can have both
There's no need to choose
Because I can have both
There's no need to choose
I can have both
There's no need to choose
Because I can have both
There's no need to choose
I can have both
There's no need to choose
