1. STAND AND DELIVER

Stand and deliver

I'm the dandy highwayman who you're too scared to mention
I spend my cash on looking flash and grabbing your attention
The devil take your stereo and your record collection!
The way you look you'll qualify for next year's old age pension!

Stand and deliver hao your money or your life!
Try and use a mirror not bullet or a knife!

I'm the dandy highwayman so sick of easy fashion
The clumsy boots, peek-a-boo roots that people think so dashing
So whats the point of robbery when nothing is worth taking?
It's kind of tough to tell a scruff the big mistake he's making

Stand and deliver hao your money or your life!
Try and use a mirror not bullet or a knife!

Even though you fool your souls
Your conscience will be mine
All mine

Oooooo oooooo

Were the dandy highwaymen so tired of excuses
Of deep meaning philosophies where only showbiz loses
We're the dandy highwaymen and heres our invitation
Throw your safety overboard and join our insect nation

Stand and deliver hao your money or your life!
Try and use a mirror not bullet or a knife!

Even though you fool your souls
Your conscience will be mine,
All mine

Da diddley qa qa da diddley qa qa
Da diddley qa qa da diddley qa qa

Stand and deliver your money or your life!
Stand and deliver your money or your life!...


2. BEAT MY GUEST

Well tie me up and hit me with a stick
Beat me beat me
Yeah, use a truncheon or a household brick
Beat me beat me
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh

Theres so much happiness behind these tears
Beat me beat me
I pray youll beat me
For ten thousand years
Beat me beat me
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh

All well I'm black and blue
Baby I love you
Be your dog
For just one flog
You dont hear me plead
For you to make me bleed
Beat me beat me
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh

Well use a truncheon or a cricket bat
Beat me beat me
A good beatings really where its at
Beat me beat me
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh

All well I'm black and blue
Baby I love you
Be your dog
For just one flog
You dont hear me plead
For you to make me bleed
Beat me beat me

All well I'm black and blue
Baby I love you
Be your dog
For just one flog
You dont hear me plead
For you to make me bleed
Beat me beat me
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
