Chinese Takeaway Songtext
von The Ocean Party

I′m talking figures
Getting my thoughts out two at a time
I'm talking figures
Trigger-happy from the week alone
I′ll pay through the teeth
To drink off the rest of the week
My rotten teeth
From all of the sugary things I drink


Better off if you leave it
I'm better off left alone
Take it up or I'll drop it
And sit around feeling sorry for myself

I wanna hang around food courts and shopping malls
In the after-work hours
Get the end-of-day specials on lukewarm
Tubs of Chinese food

I can never win, but
No one cares too
An exercise in
Self-gratification


Better off if you leave it
I′m better off left alone
Take it up or I′ll drop it
And sit around feeling sorry for myself
