Happy Mondays
Desmond
[Verse 1]
Desmond did a chore in the marketplace
Ex writin’ negs[?] with his band
Except to death move [?] like blazing it
The evening, they plot to do what’s nice

[Chorus 1]
But they puttin' it off
They puttin' it off
Why they keep on puttin' it off?

[Verse 2]
Ed knew [?] break down from on the precinct square
Stupid tart and [?] chew
Fat man said Eddie yes and liked that had[?] and now
Slow and back, and stow and back like you

[Chorus 2]
But he put it off
He didn't put it on
Why did he get on puttin’ it on?

[Bridge]
Don't you know he's not like that?
Don't you know he never is?
Don't you know he won't move that way?
Don't you know he never did?
[Verse 3]
Simon number one, with the old school team
Fastest legs who ever saw move
Now he sits at home, bum from his flat
Waitin’ for his channel to get by

[Chorus 3]
But he's puttin' it on
He's puttin' it on
Why’d he keep on puttin' it on?

[Bridge]
And we know he's not like him
And he never, never was
And we don't don't sound like him
No, he never, never could do
And know he don’t move that way
Cause he just don't fit

[Outro]
La-la la-la-la, la-la-la la-la-la
La-la la-la-la, la-la-la la-la
