Copped It (Remastered) Songtext
von The Fall

Said I ain′t no millionaire
But I spent more money than one ever seen
I'm gonna change that scene one day
It′s what you're supposed to say
Hey hey hey hey

You can't get far in land of immovable frogs
Can′t get far in home of horrible hoax
And you don′t last long on a diet of tea and toast

Hey hey hey, hey hey hey
And I'm singing the song ′cause I copped it baby
And I'm singing the song ′cause I copped it baby
And I'm singing the song ′cause I copped it baby
I steal what I have


Fascist confessions
Bring detractors
Keeping shtum
Brings dough and attractions
Costello, ideas trenchant borrows
New song benefactor
Is the past tomorrow

Sing, sing a song
I'm singing the song 'cause I copped it baby
I′m singing the song ′cause I copped it baby
I'm singing the song ′cause I copped it baby

Don't last long
There′s guns behind you
Aura of desparate boot licker
And you can't hang on with a cuff of him and girl

Hey hey hey, hey hey hey
And I′m singing the song 'cause I copped it baby
I'm singing the song ′cause I copped it baby
I′m singing the song 'cause I copped it baby

Taking out a policy for love and destruction
Can′t operate with this vexation
Say it again, real real gone
I know I've copped but I′m not the only one


Sing that song
And I'm singing the song ′cause I copped it baby
Singing the song 'cause I copped it baby
Singing the song 'cause I copped it baby

It ain′t what you do it′s the way that you do it
