Space - The Ballad Of Tom Jones (Feat. Cerys Matthews)

Album:

Tommy - What did I do wrong?
Cerys - Oh you nearly drove me cuckoo
Tommy - Am I really all that bad?
Cerys - You're worse than Hannibal Lector, Charlie Manson, Freddie Kruger
Tommy - Why are we still together?
Cerys - Oh I can't leave you till you're dead
Tommy - You mean "Till death do us part"?
Cerys - I mean like cyanide, strangulation, or an axe through your head
Tommy - It was luscky for us I turned the radio on
Cerys - They say that music soothes the savage beast
Tommy - There was something in that voice that stopped us seeing red
Cerys - The two of us would surely have ended up dead

TOGETHER
You stopped us from killing eachother (Tom Jones, Tom Jones)
You'll never know but you saved our lives (Tom Jones, Tom Jones)
Cerys - I've never thrown my knickers at you!
Tommy - And I don't come from Wales!

Tommy - Still haven't solved our problems
Cerys - You mean we hate eachother's guts
Tommy - Still wanna poison your pizza
Cerys - And I still wanna cut off your nuts
Tommy - I phoned the marriage guidance
Cerys - I tied the phoneline round your neck
Tommy - I'm sick of all this hatred
Cerys - Oh that'll be the arsenic making you sick
Tommy - You were about to drive me over the edge of a cliff
Cerys - As I tried to jump out I knocked the stereo on
Tommy - You changed your mind and then slammed on the brakes
TOGETHER - It was lucky for us we bought his greatest hits

TOGETHER
You stopped us from killing eachother (Tom Jones, Tom Jones)
You'll never know but you saved our lives (Tom Jones, Tom Jones)
Cerys - I've never thrown my knickers at you!
Tommy - And I don't come from Wales!

Tommy - And now our war is over
Cerys - Ive lost the urge to break your neck
Tommy - I owe my life to "What's New Pussy Cat?"
Cerys - Delilah stopped me hating you and wishing you dead
Oh I used to call you satan
Tommy - And you were Cruelle De Ville
Cerys - But now you call me your Delilah
Tommy - And I am not your Lucifer
Cerys - And I am just a pussy cat
Tommy - But just a word of warning now
Cerys - Just in case we ever get tired of his voice
Tommy - I know the mafia, Godzilla, king kong
Cerys - And I know an atom bomb that's going for a song!

TOGETHER
You stopped us from killing eachother (Tom Jones, Tom Jones)
You'll never know but you saved our lives (Tom Jones, Tom Jones)
Cerys - I've never thrown my knickers at you!
Tommy - And I don't come from Wales!
