I've been workin' up a sweat, I've been workin' up a sweat I've been wakin' up in sweats, I've been workin' on it
I've been up and down again, I've been up and down again I've been ridin' on the train nearly every mornin'
Like a banner-shuffled deck, like a slowly movin' thread Like a burning British nag comin' August evening
Here it comes again
I've been sleepin' every night, I've been sleepin' every night I've been sleepin' through the night, I've been sleepin' on it
I've been tryin' very hard, I've been tryin' very hard I've been tryin' very hard, how you doin' on it?
Like a one-two and a check, like a one-two and a check Like a burning British nag comin' August evening
Here it comes again
I've been playin' hard to get, I've been playin' hard to get I've been playin' hard to get, I've been playin' on it
I'm no putty in your hand, won't you put me in your band? Don't you know I'm in a band, is this speaker workin'?
Like an empty promise kept, like a shot across the net Like a burning British nag comin' August evening
Here it comes again
Oh, here it comes again
Walkin' round the corner, somewhere in the distance Very, very near now, callin' out again
Walkin' round the corner, somewhere in the distance Very, very near now, very, very near now with a bang
