Fortnight's Time - Maximo Park

In a fortnight's time 
You will be mine 
I'll bide my time 

Your a paradime 
Of woman kind 
You could be mine 

I distrust myself 
But I've got to try 
I catch your eye 

Would you like to go on a date with me? 
And I know, it's old fashioned to say so 
Five times five equals twenty five 
Don't you know your times tables by now? 
Don't you know? 

On the last train home 
You want a phone 
Instead you rub your eyes 
The reflection is grim 
In the windowpane 
It's the human stain 

Do you have a drink 
To erase the day 
There's another way 

So 
Would you like to go on a date with me? 
And I know, it's old fashioned to say so 
Five times five equals twenty five 
Don't you know your times tables by now? 
Don't you know? 

When it comes to girls I'm mostly hypothetical 
If I list their names it's purely alphabetical 
When it comes to girls I'm truely theoretical 
If I test a nerve it's merely dialetical 

And so 
Would you like to go on a date with me? 
And I know, it's old fashioned to say so 
Five times five equals twenty five 
You should know your times tables by now 
Don't you know? 
I said don't you know? 

In a fortnight's time 
You will be mine 
You will be mine
