Tank fly boss walk jam nitty-gritty
You're listening to the boy from the big bad city
This is jam hot
This is jam hot

Friends tell me I am crazy
That I'm wasting time with you
You'll never be mine
That's not the way I see it
'Cause I feel you're already mine
Whenever you're with me

People always talk about reputation
I don't care about your other girls
Just be good to me
Friends are always telling me you're a user
I don't care what you do to them
Just be good to me

Friends seem to always listen
To the bad things that you do
You never do them to me
You may have many others
But I know when you're with me
You are all mine

People always talk about reputation
I don't care what you do to them
Just be good to me
Friends are always telling me
You're a user
I don't care what you do to them
Just be good to me
Just be good to me

Tank fly boss walk jam nitty-gritty
You're listening to the boy from the big bad city
This is jam hot
This is jam hot

Love is a game of chances
So I'll take my chance with you
And you I won't try to change
We talk about it and I'd
Rather have a piece of you
Than all of nothing

(Just be good to me) In the morning
(Just be good to me) In the afternoon or evening
(Just be good to me) Yeah, just be good to me
(Just be good to me)
(Just be good to me) I'm not the jealous kind
I won't tie you down when you need me
I'll be around (Just be good to me)
I'll be good to you, you'll be good to me
We could be together, be together
(Just be good to me)
(Just be good to me)

Tank fly boss walk jam nitty-gritty
You're listening to the boy from the big bad city
This is jam hot

    Or is it Lindy Layton? I think it's Lindy. Could even be Lyndi. Oh, hell...

    Err, Norman Cook wasn't in the Beatufiul South, he was in the Housemartins with Paul who later was in the Beautiful South. Get your facts right! :) And after this project he was in Freakpower, then turned into that superstar DJ we all know as FatboySlim.

    Lol I love this song. Took me like forever to find it... There is a song mush up wit this and Dead or Alive's you spin me right round. And oddly it works so well

    After Norman Cook left The Beautiful South and long before he became Fatboy Slim, he released this song with Lindi Layton on vocals. It's an early-nineties classic! Anyone who lived through that time will remember the "Tank fly boss walk..." bit. Try it!
