Status Quo Quid Pro Quo 11 - Reality Cheque

Reality Cheque
(Parfitt/Edwards)

you started all this you got nothing on me
now we only got history
i played my cards with an unmarked deck
cashing in my chips with a reality cheque
cashing in my chips with a reality cheque

you could have had everything but you blew it all
now you own a whole lot of nothing at all
before i turn into a nervous wreck
i?m paying my bill with a reality cheque
i?m paying my bill with a reality cheque
with a fat reality cheque
with a fat reality cheque

there?s nothing worse than a woman scorned
i'm telling you baby you?re ill informed
lucky for you i?m not feeling mad
believe i specialise in being bad

you started all this you got nothing on me
now we only got history
i played my cards with an unmarked deck
cashing in my chips with a reality cheque
cashing in my chips with a reality cheque

i sold your clothes and i cancelled your cards
i changed the lock on the house and the car
didn?t i tell you, your diamond's a fake?
i must admit that's the icing on the cake

it wasn?t the me that got you in this mess
i wanted to try to make it all a success
but now you hanging all round my neck
shaking you off with a reality cheque
shaking you off with a reality cheque

with a fat reality cheque
with a fat reality cheque
paying my bill with a reality cheque
