Penny Drops - Gilbert O'Sullivan

Penny drops when she doesn’t turn up

Penny drops when you’re on a date

Penny drops knowing what you

Thinking only she was late

Penny drops when you’re on the freeway

Penny drops and you’re gunning out

Penny drops when you see the

Indicating down to now

Only takes a moment

And in all that time

Once the heavens open

It’ll be a hell of a climb

Penny drops when you take the buzz on

Penny drops reaching for the fair

Penny drops sending in the pockets

Finding there is nothing there

Penny drops looking in the mirror

Penny drops seeing what you found

Penny drops seeing each your failure

Bigger than all around

Ask yourself this question

Why is love so crude

Would it not be better

Better than the

Better than the

Penny drops when she says I love you

Penny drops when it’s on the phone

Penny drops when it’s to another

Something that you might’ve known

I believe a one love only could provide

Not for me a threesome let alone four or five

Penny drops when you leave the bathroom

Penny drops after having run

Penny drops when I make the laughter

You can see the fly’s undone

Penny drops when you’re back away now

Penny drops when you see it last

Penny drops going out for dinner

Knowing what will be the cost

Knowing what will be the cost

Knowing what will be that cost
