XTC - Fly on the Wall lyrics

"Here we go, then!" "Aargh!"
"1, 2, 3, 4"

I am the fly up on the wall
My prying eyes are looking
Through your bottom drawer
I just came flying through your door
You didn't notice that your
Number had been called

I see the mother beating the babe
I see the money, the pennies you save
Stored on computers, birth to the grave
I'm telling you fly on the wall
See-see-see-seeing it all

I am the fly up on the wall
You're in the index of the
Files that stand so tall
Although your health is rather poor
We have a place for those
Who cannot find a cure

I know your income, your daily crust
I know your pleasures, your passion
Your lust i know when you're living and
I know when you're dust i'm telling you
Fly on the wall see-see-see-seeing it all

One is born and one will die
It's all undertook
The bit that's in the middle
Doesn't count, oh, no, don't count

I am the fly up on the wall
My prying eyes are looking
Through your bottom drawer
I just came flying through your door
You didn't notice that your
Number had been called

I see the mother beating the babe
I see the money, the pennies you save
Stored on computers, birth to the grave
I'm telling you fly on the wall
See-see-see-seeing it all i'm telling you
Fly on the wall
See-see-see-seeing it all (woo)
Fly on the wall see-see-see-seeing it all
Fly on the wall see-see-see-seeing it all
Fly on the wall see-see-see-see-see-see-see
