Pencil full of lead
par Paolo Nutini
lyricscopy.com
I´ve got a sheet for my bed
and a pillow for my head;
I´ve got a pencil full of lead;
and some water for my throat
I´ve got buttons for my coat; and sails on my boat
So much more than I needed before
I got money in the meter and a two bar heater
Now it´s getting hotter;
Oh it´s only getting sweeter
I got legs on my chair and a head full of hair
Pot and a pan
And some shoes on my feet;
I got a shelf full of books and most of my teeth
A few pairs of socks and a door with a lock;
I got food in my belly and a license for my telly
And nothing´s gonna bring me down
I got a nice guitar and tyres on my car
I got most of the means; and scripts for the scenes
I´m out and about, so I´m in with a shout
I got a fair bit of chat but better than that
Food in my belly and a license for my telly
and nothing´s going to bring me down
Nothing´s gonna bring me down
But best of all (best of all)
I´ve got my baby
She´s mighty fine and says she´s all mine
And nothing´s going to bring me down
Best of all
I´ve got my baby
She´s mighty fine and says she´s all mine
And nothing´s going to bring me down
Not today...no, no
and a pillow for my head;
I´ve got a pencil full of lead;
and some water for my throat
I´ve got buttons for my coat; and sails on my boat
So much more than I needed before
I got money in the meter and a two bar heater
Now it´s getting hotter;
Oh it´s only getting sweeter
I got legs on my chair and a head full of hair
Pot and a pan
And some shoes on my feet;
I got a shelf full of books and most of my teeth
A few pairs of socks and a door with a lock;
I got food in my belly and a license for my telly
And nothing´s gonna bring me down
I got a nice guitar and tyres on my car
I got most of the means; and scripts for the scenes
I´m out and about, so I´m in with a shout
I got a fair bit of chat but better than that
Food in my belly and a license for my telly
and nothing´s going to bring me down
Nothing´s gonna bring me down
But best of all (best of all)
I´ve got my baby
She´s mighty fine and says she´s all mine
And nothing´s going to bring me down
Best of all
I´ve got my baby
She´s mighty fine and says she´s all mine
And nothing´s going to bring me down
Not today...no, no
