Washing Powder
Pete and The Pirates

Is that your washing powder,
Little voice I hear getting louder,
It's one stupid thing to remind me,
Of somebody I thought was behind me,
Yes, they came back, and pushing the knife in,
Slow down, you're caught in a whirlwind,
I will hire a private detective,
Trying to work it out in the end dear,
Hey, just don't stand there,
There's no point in empty hands,
And wheres your boy tonight,
I wonder do you realise,
What you have done,
Cos I'm not pretending,
No more tricks and no more games,
My tail's between my legs now,
Yes, you keep talking and talking,
Looking nice and isn't it boring,
Then somebody else,
Who's wearing your perfume,
Walks by and that really confuses me,
So come back,
Stop pushing the knife in,
Slow down, you're caught in a whirlwind,
I will hire a private detective,
Trying to work it out in the end dear,
Hey, just don't stand there,
There's no point in empty hands,
And wheres your boy tonight,
I wonder do you realise,
What you have done,
Cos I'm not pretending,
No more tricks and no more games,
My tail's between my legs now,
Look at you hen/they cut you hair (?),
Well thats not you,
And you paint your face,
I still see through,
It's just your washing powder,
Like a voice i hear getting louder,
One stupid thing to remind me,
Of somebody i thought was behind me,
Yes, they came back, and pushing the knife in,
Slow down, you're caught in a whirlwind,
I will hire a private detective,
Trying to work it out in the end dear,
Hey, just don't stand there,
There's no point in empty hands,
And wheres your boy tonight,
I wonder do you realise,
What you have done,
Cos I'm not pretending,
No more tricks and no more games,
My tail's between my legs now,
It's just your washing powder,
Little voice i hear getting louder,
One stupid thing to remind me,
Of somebody i thought was behind me.
