Xtc - Standing In For Joe lyrics

I'm standing, standing in for joe<br><br>Joe called round to ask me, would I do a favor? <br>While he's gonna be out of town<br>He says his girl needs company, she gets so restless<br>Would I keep her safe and sound? <br>Softly, softly in the night<br>Why, you can guess the rest...<br>Now these shoes fit all too well<br>Standing in for joe<br>Standing in for joe<br>I'm standing - in for joe<br><br>Joe said we've been friends so long<br>That I would be the one he would trust with his life<br>And now those words roll 'round my brain<br>As darkness falls, as I turn out his bedroom light<br>Who could resist her tender charms? <br>So the story goes...<br>This actor he plays all the parts<br>Standing in for joe<br>Standing in for joe<br>I'm standing - in for joe<br><br>Love is like a river,<br>You cannot stop it's flow... mmm hmm<br><br>Joe called round to ask me, would I do a favor? <br>While he's gonna be out of town<br>He says his girl needs company, she gets so restless<br>Would I check that she's safe and sound? <br>Softly, softly in the night<br>Why, you can guess the rest...<br>Now these shoes fit all too well<br>Standing in for joe<br>I'm standing in for joe - oh yeah<br>I'm standing in for joe - keep his sweetheart company, yeah<br>Standing in for joe - just standing in for joe, yeah<br>Standing in for joe - until he gets back home, yeah<br>Standing in for joe - gonna keep her insane, yeah<br>Standing in for joe - gonna keep her safe and sound, yeah<br>Standing in for joe - keep his sweetheart company, yeah<br>Standing in for joe - almost full time, which is nice, yeah<br>Standing in for joe - because she gets so restless<br>Standing in for joe - always so restless<br>Standing in for joe - keep his sweetheart company, yeah<br>Standing in for joe - gonna keep her safe and sound, yeah<br>Standing in for joe - I'm standing in for joe, yeah...
