Em
(Heavy synth sweep effects)
[Verse 1]
Em
She was frigid like a Bible when she met her boyfriend Michael

Em
He took her in his Zephyr they sat like salt and pepper

Em
Looking out across the city from Lover's Leap is pretty

Em
The lights they flick and flutter he told her how he loved her

Em
Next night he called for her, but Dad protected daughter

Em
And told him she was poorly, a lie was told there surely

Em
So Michael felt rejected, this wasn't quite expected

Em
He drove off to his local, where he felt anti-social
[Verse 2]
Em
She cried all night at missing the boy she could be kissing

Em
While he was falling over he drunk himself back sober

Em
And went home in a taxi and crashed out in the back seat

Em
He slept just like a baby which he hadn't done just lately

Em
He saw her in the morning out with his sister Pauline

Em
She felt all shy and soppy, he acted cool and cocky

Em
He said tonight at Charlie's there's going to be a party

Em
I'll meet you at half seven she visualized the heaven
[Chorus]
       A    G           A     Em        A       G       A    Em
If you ever change your mind, which you do from time to time

G                                                                                                       Em
Never chew a pickle with a little slap and tickle, you have to throw the stone to get the pool to ripple
[Verse 3]
Em
That night they danced together it looked like love forever

Em
He put his hand on her leg you should have heard what she said

Em
He tried again much later it seemed to aggravate her

Em
He drove home in silence avoiding all violence

Em
She said let's watch the city from Lover's Leap is pretty

Em
I think I need the fresh air she put a comb through her hair

Em
Then while she turned to kiss him and very nearly missed him

Em
She put her hand on his leg he felt her tongue in his head
[Chorus]
       A    G           A     Em        A       G       A    Em
If you ever change your mind, which you do from time to time

G                                                                                                        Em
Never chew a pickle with a little slap and tickle, you have to throw the stone to get the pool to ripple
[Outro]
Em
(Synth vamp over Em till fade)
