| I'm never gonna be the handyman around the house my father was | |
| So don't be asking me to hang a curtain rail for you, because | |
| Screwdriver business just gets me confused | |
| It takes me half an hour to change a fuse | |
| And when I flicked the switch the lights all blew | |
| I'm not your handyman | |
| Don't be expecting me to put up shelves or build a garden shed | |
| But I can write a song that tells the world how much I love you instead | |
| I'm not any good at pottery so let's lose the 't' and just shift back the 'e' | |
| And I'll find a way to make my poetry build a roof over our heads | |
| I know it looks like I'm just reading the paper | |
| But these ideas I'll turn to gold dust later | |
| Cause I'm a writer not a decorator… | |
| I'm not your handyman |
| I' m never gonna be the handyman around the house my father was | |
| So don' t be asking me to hang a curtain rail for you, because | |
| Screwdriver business just gets me confused | |
| It takes me half an hour to change a fuse | |
| And when I flicked the switch the lights all blew | |
| I' m not your handyman | |
| Don' t be expecting me to put up shelves or build a garden shed | |
| But I can write a song that tells the world how much I love you instead | |
| I' m not any good at pottery so let' s lose the ' t' and just shift back the ' e' | |
| And I' ll find a way to make my poetry build a roof over our heads | |
| I know it looks like I' m just reading the paper | |
| But these ideas I' ll turn to gold dust later | |
| Cause I' m a writer not a decorator | |
| I' m not your handyman |
| I' m never gonna be the handyman around the house my father was | |
| So don' t be asking me to hang a curtain rail for you, because | |
| Screwdriver business just gets me confused | |
| It takes me half an hour to change a fuse | |
