Made me think of all the howling wolf
And how the suitors passed a glance at me
Setting off into the Bank of Horrors
And all the people more like them than like me

Made me think about my overdraft
500 pounds is lined on my face
I can't wait for April 1-9
I'm working hard for the breadline
And that's a fact
I nearly cracked, nearly cracked as a matter of fact

Well a simplistic way of life is happy now
It's black and white and that's ironic somehow
A back to back is a bank right now
Always scummy legs in the south

Show me a bank that don't deal in gold
Show me a grand of money cleaner than mine
Show me what you gonna do with your degree
Show me a new career in five year's time and here's a fact
Your money's black, yes it's black, as a matter of fact

Well a simplistic way of life is happy now
It's black and white and that's ironic somehow
A back to back is a bank right now
Always scummy legs in the south

Who are you to point a finger at me
Working hard for your honours degree
So you can move out of Hulme for Hale
Walking fine on the home-owner trail and that's a fact
Your money's black, yes it's black, as a matter of fact

Well a simplistic way of life is happy now
It's black and white and that's ironic somehow
A back to back is a bank right now
Always scummy legs in the south yeah

Well a simplistic way of life is happy now
It's black and white and that's ironic somehow
A back to back is a bank right now
Always scummy legs in the south yeah
