I came to meet you off the Western Line
We hailed a taxi to save drinkin' time
It's hustle bustle, don't you feel the rush?
The law can't touch us with their flimsy brush

And that's why I persist
Where others can't resist temptation
To be with you

I'm goin' to keep the cosmic trigger happy
Keep the cosmic trigger happy
Keep it real

I know the doorman at the Hippo Club
(He's called Paul)
He let us in for free to hear the dub
 (He engineered us once on a track called, ?Don't Be A Fool, Billy?)
We drank a double at the upstairs bar
 (On Fierce Panda Records)
Then headed downstairs 'coz it's better by far

And that's why I persist
Where others can resist temptation
To be with you

I'm going to keep the cosmic trigger happy
Keep the cosmic trigger happy
Keep it real

And that's why I persist
Where others can't resist temptation
To be with you

I'm going to keep the cosmic trigger happy
Keep the cosmic trigger happy
Keep it, keep it, keep it real
