Lyrics

High Maintenance

Verse 1
It was above the call of duty
More than a man should do
A long, hard day
In every way
Looking after you
Above the call of duty
More than I call fair
You really were
High maintenance
To love and take good care
Chorus
High maintenance, high maintenance
To love and take good care
You really were high maintenance
That's why I'm outta here
You really were high maintenance
And now I'm outta here
Verse 2
I was jumping in the deep end
Hadn't learnt to swim
So deep down
A man might drown
Without a prayer or hymn
A song unsung in silence
Applause without a crowd
You really were
High maintenance
I'm telling you out loud


Bridge
It was above the call of duty
More than a man should do
A long hard day
In every way
Looking after you
Above the call of duty
More than I call fair
You really were
High maintenance
To love and take good care

Chorus
High maintenance, high maintenance
To love and show due care
You really were high maintenance
That's why I'm outta here
You really were high maintenance
And now I'm outta here


Yeah I'm clear outta here.
