[Verse 1]
I am the message centre
Local and direct
Room to room, an operator
No calls today, dear, they'll just have to wait, dear
I call and I collect
So just strike him softly, away from the body
[Chorus]
You're made up too shiny today
In so much trouble
You ought to just piss it away
In so much trouble
So much trouble
[Verse 2]
I am a manager
And I am in control
As the local delegator
No calls today, dear, they'll just have to wait, dear
I offer no guarantee at all
So don't take it lightly, you're past your sell by date
[Chorus]
You're made up too shiny today
In so much trouble
You ought to just piss it away
In so much trouble
A new typeface, a new day
In so much trouble
You can't remember ten minutes ago
In so much trouble
Too much trouble
[Bridge]
La, la-la-la-la
La, la, la, la
La, la-la-la-la
La, la, la
[Bridge]
You're past your sell by date
[Chorus]
You're made up too shiny today
In so much trouble
You ought to just piss it away
In so much trouble
A new typeface, a new day
In so much trouble
You can't remember ten minutes ago
In so much trouble
Just too much trouble
[Outro]
La, la-la-la-la
La, la, la, la
La, la-la-la-la
La, la, la, la
La, la-la-la-la
La, la, la, la
La, la-la-la-la
La, la, la, la
La, la-la-la-la
La, la, la, la
La, la-la-la-la
La, la, la, la
La, la-la-la-la
La, la, la, la
La, la-la-la-la
