So you found our love in the warm Pacific spray,
'Cos I left our love in the desert
to fend for itself. (I thought it better that way)
Did you get my text?
Did I get my thoughts [bad word] 
It's hard to see things clearly [bad word] the gossip and the gloom.
I'm gonna blind our love with the paparazzi flash.
I'm gonna squash our love like an economic crash.
Did you get my text?
Did I make myself clear?
It's getting hard to see this [bad word] the gossip and the beer.

They say "Boy you've changed."
well I say "You've changed too."
Follow me up the alps,
I've got things to do
"Scatter the ashes here"
Didn't you get my text?
Didn't that get [bad word] 
It's hard to make myself clear [bad word] the gossip and the beer.

Will you follow me to LDN where I know the streets?
I don't need reinforcements cos you won't know where I live.
Didn't you get my message? did the text not get [bad word] 
It's getting hard to see these days [bad word] the gossip and
the gloom, the beery gloom.
