Well, hey there come over here
Y'know, I've got something to show you
Just swivel in your power chair
D'you want me to be Persephone the cookie queen
And Snow White too
Well forgive me for my complexion and my lewd tongue
And lack of sensitivity
But I'm not some easy little girl
If you wanna fight someone you can
Come fight me
Lets do it now
Lets do it now
Lets do it now
Do it now
And I could sit with my hands intertwined
And shrug my shoulders pretending everything's just fine
But what fun is life when you're just
Cowering in a corner waiting to drown all the time?
And he grins and winks at me saying
"Honey I'm your godsend, I sense you're incomplete"
And I smile and turn the other way, so come on big boy
I'll meet you on the edge of my seat
Lets do it now
Lets do it now
Lets do it now
Do it now
And there she goes to her samurai
Panties tucked high
The past tense can be your alibi
And we have been draped across these bar stools
Picking stones out of our size six boots and
He has been greasing every female with a gaze
That smacks of 'I'll have anything that moves'
So we take up the initiative
And stroll over to Mr. Muscles in that predatory waltz
Saying "hey there, lets see what you've got boy
"And don't mind our amusement or preliminary insults"
Lets do it now
Lets do it now
Lets do it now
Do it now

There's a similarity in song writing between Richard Thompson and Hugh Cornwell which maybe isn't surprising as they went to the same school at the same time, although Thompson is older.
Due to Thompson's association with John French of Captain Beefheart & The Magic Band I searched for his work on the Bandcamp app. French, Thompson and Cornwell all have albums on the app which I'm very pleased about. Only Thompson has released contemporary albums, much to his credit. yellowcakeuf6

John Drumbo French from Captain Beefheart and The Magic Band worked with Thompson on two albums along with Fred Frith and Henry Kaiser.
Those two French, Frith, Kaiser and Thompson albums led me to this.
Also, Richard Thompson taught Hugh Cornwell (of The Stranglers) how to play the bass guitar in a band when they were both at the same school (Emil and The Detectives?).
With a career spanning 50 years and playing with two of my heroes (French and Cornwell) Thompson has produced a fascinating EP. yellowcakeuf6
The second EP from Northern Irish singer-songwriter Bea Stewart runs from gentle folk to pillowy pop ballads, all perfectly executed. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 15, 2024
