I'll Compete - Madness

I’ll be you’re promotional copy

In this here number one band

Take your business beyond your farthest dreams

Sounds good sounds great sounds really grand

But wait

Let us hurry now time is catching up

And it looks like the music hall race has caught me up

But I’ll compete yeah yeah for all that it’s worth

I’ll compete for all that it’s worth

I’ll compete on the beat for all that It’s worth

I’ll compete for all that I’m worth

I’ll be your pop swap come floppy disc

Race you along the upper deck

Retrieve from you my withheld treasure

Then watch you sink with your sunken rotting wreck

Let us hurry now time is running out

Let’s not forget time is money

Said the businessman to his faithful scout

But I’ll compete in the national press for all that it’s worth

I’ll compete for all that it’s worth

I’ll compete on the beat for all that It’s worth

I’ll compete internationally for all that it’s worth

We must hurry now time is closing in

And I’m getting no younger in fact

Five years closer to my pension scheme

I’ll compete yeah yeah for all that it’s worth

I’ll compete for all that it’s worth

I’ll compete on the beat for all that It’s worth

I’ll compete with rest of the pack for all that it’s worth
