Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before lyrics

Stop me, oh, stop me

Stop me if you think that you've

Heard this one before

Stop me, oh, stop me

Stop me if you think that you've heard this one before

Nothing's changed

I still love you, oh, I still love you

... Only slightly, only slightly less than I used to, my love

I was delayed, I was way-laid

An emergency stop

I smelt the last ten seconds of life

I crashed down on the crossbar

And the pain was enough to make

A shy, bald, buddhist reflect

And plan a mass murder

Who said I'd lied to her?

Oh, who said I'd lied because I never? I never!

Who said I'd lied because I never?

I was detained, I was restrained

And broke my spleen

And broke my knee

(and then he really laid into me)

Friday night in out-patients

Who said I'd lied to her?

Oh, who said I'd lied? - Because I never, I never

Who said I'd lied? - Because I never

Oh, so I drank one

It became four

And when I fell on the floor...

... I drank more

Stop me, oh, stop me

Stop me if you think that you've

Heard this one before

Stop me, oh, stop me

Stop me if you think that you've heard this one before

Nothing's changed

I still love you, oh, I still love you

... Only slightly, only slightly less than I used to, my love
