Money saved takes money spent for a drink
She picks him up, she takes him out
Sometimes she saved
Sometimes she bought
I think she planned everything they talked about
Money saved asks how d'you spend your week
He sighs and shifts looks away
A little while to unwind
She's forgotten how it was they used to speak
Till he says you sweet thing
You'll be sweeter still
Calm down a bit
I know I’m grumpy baby
But do we have to talk about it?
Oh, come on
It's hard when they first meet
Dichotomy they keep at bay
Sometimes one gets their way
Money spent relents
As he says
You waste these days
Saving money
Taking food home
Watching TV alone
Well calm down a bit
I've found your dancing shoes outside
Let's see if they still fit
Oh
Come on
Money saved helps money spent with the rent
It's not the first he’s been lent
All his time I pay for, she thought
I should have bought the things I made it for
But was it him
His warm sleeping skin
So should she clip the wings of dreams
She imagines cavernous and muted within
Within his sweet skin
Oh, you’ll be sweeter still
Pee in the dark my love
Because we cannot pay the bills
Oh, come on let's go out
Let's go to the park
Let me keep you there till it gets dark
And have all these evenings I saved for
Underneath the stars and wind my sweet
My sweet thing
