Testi

[Verse 1]
(Capable, capable, capable, capable, capable, capable, capable)
I have successfully challenged parking fines
With my persuasive rhetoric
If a man with a van needs backin' out
You better know that I'm on it
I drive my high performance family car
With apparent joie de vivre
I am for small state, low tax, up by the bootstraps, I voted leave
[Verse 2]
I am a capable man
(Capable, capable, capable, capable, capable, capable, capable)
I am a capable man
[Verse 3]
With what I save through various loyalty schemes
We have two city breaks a year
That's on top of the family holiday
A fortnight in Gran Canaria
I have insurance comin' out my ass
So no low-life can touch me
I am a hard-working top performer at work
Yeah, my bosses all love me
[Verse 4]
But you just seem lost to me
You just seem lost to me, you
Yeah, you just seem lost to me, you
You just seem lost to me, you do
[Verse 5]
I carry out small home repair jobs
To near professional standards
I make simple hearty pub style grub
And I drink from a tankard
If my son was gay or brought a black girl home
Yeah, I'd be just fine with it
In fact that absolutely goes without sayin'
Though I should point out he isn't
And hasn't
[Verse 6]
I am a tolerant man
(Capable, capable, capable, capable, capable, capable, capable)
I am a tolerant man
[Verse 7]
But you just seem lost to me
(Just seem lost, just seem lost to me)
You just seem lost to me, you
You just seem lost to me, you
(Just seem lost, just seem lost to me)
You just seem lost to me, you do
(Just seem lost to me)
[Verse 8]
I had a brief blip a few years ago
It barely merits a mention
A mild existential crisis
A slight bout of depression
After six weeks cryin' every day
I took a look in the mirror
I said, sort yourself out, buck yourself up my boy, you're a winner
[Verse 9]
I was a delicate man
Are we all delicate, delicate
Are we all, oh, oh
[Verse 10]
You just seem lost to me
(Just seem lost, just seem lost to me)
You just seem lost to me, you
Yeah, you just seem lost to me, you
(Just seem lost, just seem lost to me)
You just seem lost to me, you do
