So you think that you have seen her
When you're lying in between her
And you tell me that you don't care

Busy bodies getting nowhere
Ev'rybody's getting meaner
Busy bodies

Caught in the concertina

You check her outline

Break her regulations
You watch her legs through several
Service stations


Busy bodies
Very busy

Getting nowhere
Nowhere, nowhere, nowhere


Now you're ready for the merger
With the company you're part of
And you do the dirty business

With your latest sleeping partner

You're becoming

Automatic
Busy bodies
Out playing with the traffic


You want attention
You try my patience

With the best intentions you are nothing but a nuisance

Busy bodies

Busy busy
Getting nowhere
Nowhere, nowhere, nowhere


Now you've given your performance
Though the matinee was idle

And you find that a wave of her right hand
Could seem so tidal


Just a second
Satisfaction
Busy bodies

Temporarily out of action

You wash and brush up

You want to dress up
You want to kiss her
But she's busy with her makeup


Busy bodies
Very busy

Getting nowhere
Nowhere [x6]
