Madness - I'll Compete

I'll be you're promotional copy
In this here number one band
Take your business beyond your furthest 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 (with the best of the pack)
For all that it's worth
I'll compete (on the beat)
For all that it's worth
I'll compete (with a full deck)
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 (with the back chat)
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 the ratings)
For all that it's worth
I'll compete (on the beat)
For all that it's worth
I'll compete (with best of the pack)
For all that it's worth
