OTIS REDDING


A tenner in my pocket but what's it for 
You're only going to do what you did before 
You gotta cheap smile you got it from the government 
You've gotta go to work it feels just like a punishment 

Ain't got a job I'm outta my head 
I think I'll spend the day in bed 
Otis Redding on the dock of the bay 
I'll spend the tenner on a takeaway 
Otis Redding on the dock of the bay 
I'll spend the tenner on a takeaway 

A tenner in my pocket but what's it for 
You're only going to do what you did before 
I wanna have a fag I need some Marijuana 
Yeah a David Bowie song that day by the river 

Ain't got a job I'm outta my head 
I think I'll spend the day in bed 
Otis Redding on the dock of the bay 
I'll spend the tenner on a takeaway 
Otis Redding on the dock of the bay 
I'll spend the tenner on a takeaway 

A tenner in my pocket but what's it for 
You're only going to do what you did before 
The telephones ringing there's someone at the door 
Yeah I've gotta write a letter I feel it in the weather 

Ain't got a job I'm outta my head 
I think I'll spend the day in bed 
Otis Redding on the dock of the bay 
I'll spend the tenner on a takeaway 
Otis Redding on the dock of the bay 
I'll spend the tenner on a takeaway 
Otis Redding on the dock of the bay 
I'll spend the tenner on a takeaway
