[Verse 1]
I got a problem with the big man
I’m not big, he isn’t clever, but he leathered me good
And what’s it take to be the big man
Apart from size, apart from size?
And now my problem’s with the policeman
I’m just saying please, man, can’t you turn a blind eye?
An eye for an eye, oh I

[Chorus]
I said "Hey, you couldn’t write it
The most peculiar day of your life"
I said "Hey, don’t fight it
Just hope the tunnel ends in a light"
I said "Hey"

[Verse 2]
I got a problem ’cause you’re laid back
You see, I wanna pick a fight every now and again
Don’t think you’re safe ’cause we go way back
You say "That’s ok, I don’t mind"
The mirror’s wrong upon reflection
I think I know myself less the longer I stare
I stare, I’m aware, self-aware

[Chorus]
I said "Hey, you couldn’t write it
The most peculiar day of your life"
I said "Hey, don’t fight it
Just hope the tunnel ends in a light"
I said "Hey, you couldn’t write it
The most peculiar day of your life"
[Bridge]
Out on my ear
I’m just another drop in the lake
Let me make myself clear
For you appear to be struggling to take
(Wise words could never reach us) To take
(How could we ever read the lipless, lipless)

[Chorus]
I said "Hey, you couldn’t write it
The most peculiar day of your life"
I said "Hey, don’t fight it
Just hope the tunnel ends in a light"
I said "Hey, you couldn’t write it
The most peculiar day of your life"

[Outro]
Ho!
(Ho!) Ho!
Of your life, of your life, of your life
