[Verse 1]
Jacob is a car mechanic
Living life at home is funny
He knows a girl but he never got married
Some say he's a cause for concern
Shaky Jakey's always dancing
Kids all call him up when they want some fun
Ten stone but he's getting lighter
Pretty soon he's gonna disappear
[Chorus]
Can you tell me about my life?
Just the basic detail
We can talk all night
A one way conversation
[Verse 2]
My friend Lucy doesn't like boys
When she wears her cut down T-shirt
It's like she's saying, "No, don't ask me"
It's a funny thing but no one ever does
[Chorus]
Can you tell me about my life?
Just the basic detail
We can talk all night
One way conversation
[Bridge]
It's getting easier
Now I know where I'm coming from
It's a heavy feeling
You gotta know what you're in for
Before you go
[Chorus]
So can you tell me about my life?
Just the basic detail
We can talk all night
One way conversation
Then you tell me about your life
I bet you're someone special
We can talk all night
I think I really need to
