Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hi, I'm very shy
I'm that kinda guy
I'm a little bipolar
[Verse 2]
Davina McCall's pause
Charles Ingram's cough
Harold Lloyd's clock
Placeholder
[Chorus]
I'm injecting a lethal dose of nothing
I'm blaring a dangerous amount of Coldplay
[Verse 3]
Dad rock already
Sleeping with your teddy
Pissed the bed lately
At home
[Verse 4]
Licence for the TV
Feel bad, but it's funny
Teletubby belly
Eh-oh
[Verse 5]
Wisdom of Crazy Frog
Polyphonic slog
You've got a phone call from hell
[Verse 6]
Phoneroticaddiction
Handy in the kitchen
Not a pot to piss in or spill
[Refrain]
Phonerotica
Phonerotica
[Verse 7]
That was a bit weird
The ghost is clear
I'd kiss you, but there's sick in my beard
Half-watching the Phantom Menace on repeat
Dracula teeth
I'm just future meat
Giving it the Desmonds
The full Desmonds
Who's your favourite parent?
Is it yer man or yer one or yer one or yer man?
Why is being horizontal wrong?
What do you want to die from?
[Verse 8]
By the way, I'm shy
It is morphing time
When I grow up, I'm going to be a Power Ranger
[Verse 9]
Glugging Lemsip
Chatting with the gimp
Cowboy hats at gigs works on paper
[Verse 10]
Stomach has a hint
Also has a limp
My mind's a bully and it never ends
[Verse 11]
Coasters for the table
Technically disabled
Fashioning the Rachel from Friends
[Chorus]
I'm injecting a lethal dose of nothing
I'm blaring a dangerous amount of Coldplay
[Verse 12]
By the way, I'm shy
But only on the sly
When I grow up, I'm gonna talk to strangers
[Verse 13]
Glugging Lemsip
It's me in the nip with a dog
That's watching Neighbours
[Verse 14]
Stomach as a limp
Also has a hint
That Thunderbirds are go and gone
[Verse 15]
Coasters for the table
My dad wasn't able
I'm a fatherless fuck
In the dead dad's club
[Chorus]
I'm injecting a lethal dose of nothing
I'm blaring a dangerous amount of Coldplay
