By now I'm shaking like I'm ready 'cos the waiting has me petrified
And every second makes the muscles in my belly turn to jelly pie
But I know that you've been worried just like I though you would
And every second of the day I spend passing off like my fatherhood

[[bridge:]]
I trust you know I'll hold you up no matter what
And by the time the bridge is crossed

[[chorus:]]
Betty I was hoping every day
But it's all over now
And everything is coming back around
And I've changed anyhow

I know I'm bluffing and I'm fluffing all the lines I had rehearsed today
And I'm aware of all the pleasures that you've got will never go away
But I know that you've been worried just like I though you would
And every second of the day I spend passing off like my fatherhood

[bridge]
[chorus x2]

And all the shaking and the sweating now my dear is at a bitter end
And I will never make the same mistake again I guarantee my friend

[bridge]
[chorus x2]
