Nick Lowe
Man Called Uncle
[Verse 1]
Now those news print's all over your face
Well, maybe that's why I can read you like a book
Just when I thought I was getting my taste a bite
I go and lose my appetite

[Chorus]
Look at the man that you'd call uncle
They'd like to sink their teeth in to you
For the pride and the pleasure
And the privilege of having you

[Verse 2]
If I say you're the one do you think that I'm serious
You get that kind of talk from older men
If I say I love you then I must be delirious
So why are you trying to put my temperature up again

[Chorus]
Look at the man that you'd call uncle
Having a heart-attack 'round your ankles

[Bridge]
When you wake up with x-rated eyes
When you wake up still shaking
How could I apologize as your check you affects
And you check your reflection
I'm so affected in the face of your affection
[Chorus]
Look at the man that you'd call uncle
Having a heart-attack 'round your ankles

[Outro/Chorus]
I could swear I could promise
That I'll always be true to you
But we may not live to be so old
I could even say I'm going to do something new to you
Now the girls I see just leave me cold

Look at the man that you'd call uncle
Look at the man that you'd call uncle
Look at the man that you'd call uncle
