Refrain: He your pappy, but he dead now Won't mess with yer head no more No more.
Cos he dead now, he dead now He dead now.
1. Looking in this window. See 'em all warm inside. Cold wind, him bitin' at my ankles. Just look at 'em inside, all warm and cosy.
CHORUS: Maybe gotta look inside Won't get nothing on the outside Yeah, gotta look inside For a little bit o' lurve!
Never gonna turn your back on life. Gotta take this shot of live Gotta warm me up inside 'Fore the cold comes to claim me.
Gotta close all lonely spaces With a little bit of love So, I's gotta take a look inside.
2. Don't mean to feel so mean. Just wanna feel part of something (So) strange, with all 'em polar caps a-meltin', We still don't have enough love!
3. Looky here, now traipsin' down this ***** street Seeking all along the edge of night Huntin' warmth, hikin' smiles, hawkin' love and sellin' souls What the hell are we doin' here?
4. No, you don't always feel it But there's a stink wind blowing out there Suckin' at my poor soul, stealin' all my warmth Yeah, (s)uckin' up my poor soul, takin' all our love!
Repeat refrain.

Failing to go within, means going without.
And, if you think your situation is bad.....think again!
