I Know What I Like (In Your Wardrobe)

Genesis · Genesis Live 1973-2007 (11 Discs) [2009]

It's one o'clock and time for lunch - dum dee dum dee dum

When the sun beats down and I lie on the bench

I can always hear them talk



There's always been Ethel:

"Jacob, wake up, you've got to tidy your room now"

And then Mr. Lewis:

"Isn't it time that he was out on his own"

Over the garden wall, two little love birds cuckoo to you

Keep them mowing blades sharp...



I know what I like

And I like what I know

Getting better in your wardrobe

Stepping one beyond your show



Sunday night, Mr. Farmer called, said:

"Listen son, you're wasting time

There's a future for you in the fire-escape trade

Come up to town"

But I remembered a voice from my past:

"Gambling only pays when you're winning"

I had to thank old Miss Mort for schooling a failure

Keep them mowing blades sharp...



I know what I like

And I like what I know

Getting better in your wardrobe

Stepping one beyond your show

I know what I like

And I like what I know

Getting better in your wardrobe

Stepping one beyond your show



When the sun beats down and I lie on the bench

I can always hear them talk

Me, I'm just a lawnmower

You can tell me by the way I walk
