I Cant Put My Finger On It lyrics

As martin said to xanthe 
As they played with wooden toys 
"you may have wendy's playhouse 
But where the heel's your boys? " 
As paul said to fifi 
As they eyed each other up 
"you may have better plimsoles 
But you can't pee standing up" 

And I'd like to take the time to bite 
Their neck and make it bleed 
Or maybe I could cut holes in their 
Daddy's harris tweed 

And I can't put my finger on it 
Maybe it's something in their food 
And I cna't put my finger on it 
All I know is christ would've sued 

As sharon said to jamie 
As they sat down for a chat 
"if you think I'm cooking dinner 
Well, prepare to eat dead rat" 

As debbie said to alex 
As they held hands in the park 
"how come you wear rupert check 
When you think you're so hard" 

I should've done his land rover 
To let him know I'd been 
Instead I wrote "f' off" 
On the dirt across his screen 

And I can't put my finger on it 
Maybe it's something in their food 
And I cna't put my finger on it 
All I know is christ would've sued 

I wish I'd let them know that I was here 
A drop of arsenic in the wine 
Sulphuric acid in the beer
