10cc - Head Room Lyrics

I've never been kissed before, it's been on my list before
A flick of the wrist before would do
But when you get down to it, it's got a good sound to it
Don't meddle around with it 'cause it's far too wet to woo

When mummy and daddy play, they tell me to go away
But by hanging around, I can learn all the rules
Now I've got the technique, I'm away

Develop a taste for it, a time and a place for it
Although on the face of it, it's a crime
I've nibbled the cheese of it, the birds and the bees of it
Are weak at the knees from making honey every time

I'm throwing my toys away
I'm leaving the boys to play with the boys, gimme girls
And it's time I was breaking away

Just gimme some head room, just a little bit of head room
I need some leg room, just a little bit of leg room
I see myself, oh Lord
I see a mess

I'm making a meal of it, I'm breaking the seal of it
I'm getting the feel of what to do
It's got a good ring to it, I'm getting a thing for it
And if there's a sting in it, I'll have met my waterloo

My mummy and daddy said
You're liable to wind up dead

Ooh, they've been shooting me a line
Maybe it doesn't exist at all
Ooh, I've been towing the line
Now I'm hook, line and sinkered

I've never been kissed before, it's been on my list before
A flick of the wrist before would do
But when you get down to it, it's got a good sound to it
Don't meddle around with it 'cause it's far too wet to woo

I've thrown all my toys away
I'm leaving the boys to play
With the girls that you get for a dollar a day
When you pull on their strings they say

Just gimme some head room, just a little bit of head room
I need a ball room up against the wall room
I need the rest, oh Lord
I need the rest

Just gimme some head room, just a little bit of head room
Take me to your bedroom, show a little bit of leg room
I need the rest, oh Lord
I need the rest

Just gimme some head room, just a little bit of head room
I need some head room, just a little bit of head room
I need the rest, oh Lord
I need the rest

Just gimme some head room, just a little bit of head room
I need some head room, just a little bit of head room
I need the rest, oh Lord
I need the rest

Just gimme some head room, just a little bit of head room
I need some head room, just a little bit of head room
I need the rest, oh Lord
I need the rest
