Squeeze - Pinocchio Lyrics
Swallow me say swallow me
Take me to your nest of china dolls
Call me up your closest friend
Join me in my neighbourhood patrol
Happy me say happy me
The night is young I feel so old
See the stars above the night's so clear
I used to come home late and lie, lie, lie
She used to see through that but still I tried
I couldn't cover up the tracks I'd made
That's how it used to be but not today
Race around I race around
Focused on the here and now with you
What harm can a little loving do
Fall about then fall about
Drunk on love I can't stand on my feet
Before I try please take my hand
I've so many words left I should eat
Tickle me please tickle me
Laughter climbs the walls above our bed
This night we have is built on love
Help me so I do not lose the thread
Swallow me say swallow me
Happy me say happy me
Race around I race around
Fall about then fall about
Tickle me say tickle me
Love me do sing love me do

Squeeze Pinocchio Comments
I used to love singing this song. A real vocalist piece.
Excellent lyrics, lead vocal. Wonderful feel to the verses. Lovely keyboard runs at the end, presumably Paul Carrack?
I think this is one of the best songs Difford - Tillbrook have ever written .. I will go as far as to say, "Some Fantastic Place" is one of the best offerings. I foolishly sent an e-mail to Chris Diffiord shortly after seeing them Dec 2017 at the Paramount in Long Island NY. Told him that I was a fan since the 70's and that this particular song touched me in a very deep emotional way. God .. I'm such an old fan boy. Chris graciously replied that he was so honored that anyone would remember, much less touched by a song they had written so long ago but he was most appreciative.
Favorite album of the 90’s!!!!!
Possibly the best song from a band so diverse and rich, they deserve consideration with the Beatles. I could not get enough listens back in the day. A few belts, a drive along the backroads and Squeeze!
they are my musical heroes...up there with the Beatles.
Had this disc for years ... coupla listens. Then recently grabbed it for a long trip driving and I finally "heard" it. OMFG better late than never man I l-o-v-e this track but the entire collection is some fantastic place.
And wonderful yt btw, t/y for it.
This video is not available 😔
+JaggsyJaggs Sorry about that Jaggsy but I've got no control over what YouTube decides what it will allow you to see (totally random if you ask me). My video isn't gonna win any awards but the song is sublime. I'm sure it's somewhere else on YouTube.
+tygre97 no, I understand that... Annoyingly though I have watched this previously which is daft and frustrating! I think your video was very good as it goes - and I've not found another decent video of this on YouTube since.
Thanks for that. I'm not sure what's going on with YouTube at the moment, I too am having difficulty viewing videos I previously was able to.
The quality of this song, the lyrics, the vocals, the production, the emotion expressed, is pure musical perfection.
It took the vision and genius of Squeeze to create this treasure for us to relish.
+patdthomas Excellent observation. Could not have said it any better!
A band that never found a genre. A bit to brit lyric wise for America. Great Band
+Joseph Gallagher Up Yours Putz lol
Very underrated band. A bit too word clever for American public. I had the pleasure of meeting Glenn at a small solo show in Long Island NY around 2003. Very nice guy.
Not too word clever. I'm American and I love them as do many other Americans. Part of their uniqueness was their outstanding songwriting and lyrics.
I'd go along with that assessment. Right on the money.
Possibly the most underrated song of all time.
I second your opinion.
massive fan. just joint you tube. first song i looked for . lyric as allways superb. glen just delivers on every note. for me there best song!!!!
His voice is so silky SMOOOTH!
Oh, I love this song!!!
I used to come home late and LIE LIE LIE. and so did you. Stunning song. xxx
All of Squeeze's albums are excellent.
I like all of them.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! I love this song!!!!
Great video, thanks. Yep, pure quality, that album, very underrated.
