Verse 1
The lanes were silent
There was nothing, no one, nothing around for miles
I doused our friendly venture
With a hard-faced three-word gesture
Chorus
I started something, I forced you to a zone
And you were clearly never meant to go
Hair brushed and parted
Typical me, typical me, typical me
I started something
And now I'm not too sure
Verse 2
I grabbed you by the gilded beams... grrrrr...
That's what tradition means
And I doused another venture with a gesture
That was absolutely violent
Chorus
I started something, I forced you to a zone
And you were clearly never meant to go
Hair brushed and parted
Typical me, typical me, typical me
I started something
And now I'm not too sure
Interlude
Verse 3
I grabbed you by the gilded beams... grrrrr...
That's what tradition means
And now eighteen months hard labour seems fair enough
Chorus
I started something, and I forced you to a zone
And you were clearly never meant to go
Hair brushed and parted
Typical me, typical me, typical me
I started something
And now I'm not too sure
I started something, I started something
Typical me, typical me, typical me, typical me
Typical me, typical me, typical me
I started something
And now I'm not too sure
