The Fall - IVANHOES TWO PENCE lyrics

(My name is Ivanhoe

Ivanhoe? There was a time when I used to know a boy called Ivanhoe

That was many years ago. A fine lad.

Are you speaking of Ivanhoe the Norman?

That's the one, yes.)

Dropped some money down there

And it's only two pence

If you are a light and dark knight

How can you turn from your happy plight

You cannot feel

Look there doctor

Any time of night

Any time of day

And you disown

One thousand three hundred and four

Two pence

It's only

Two pence

In the gut of Mammon

You used patient's credit card

To steal one billion

How can I return

In happy plight

When I'm devout

Benefit of rest

And look over

It's only two pence

It's only

Two pence

Get from

Got yourself

Former

Got yourself into the former battle

The happy passes

And the standing cup fills

You dropped some money down there

You could pay to

Smitten in two

You used patient's credit card

To steal one thousand three one million credit

Ivanhoe

You little

It's only two pence
