"Pencil Full Of Lead" lyrics - PAOLO NUTINI
I've got a sheet for my bed
And a pillow for my head
I've got a pencil full of lead
And some water for my throat
I've got buttons for my coat
And sails on my boat
So much more than I needed before
I got money in the meter
And a two bar heater
Oh now it's getting hotter
Oh it's only getting sweeter
I've legs on my chair
And a head full of hair
Pot and a pan
And shoes on my feet
I've got a shelf full of books
And most of my teeth
Two pairs of socks
And a door with a lock
I've got food in my belly and a license for my telly
And nothin's gonna bring me down
Ooh noo
And nothin's, no nothin's, nothin's gonna bring me down
I've got a nice guitar and tyres on my car
I've got most of the means and scripts for the scenes
I'm out and about
So I'm in with a shout
I got a fair bit of chat but better than that
Food in my belly and a license for my telly
And nothin's gonna bring me down
And nothin's, nothin's gonna bring me down
[Hook:]
Best of all
I've got my baby [2x]
She's mighty fine and she's all mine
And nothin's gonna bring me down
[Hook:]
Best of all
I've got my baby [2x]
She's mighty fine and she's all mine
And nothin's gonna bring me down [3x]
Not today... no, no
