BULL IN A CHINA SHOP
Words and Music by Laurence Conway

Verse 1:
WELL IF YOU'RE LIKE A BULL IN A CHINA SHOP
WITH NO FINESSE ABOUT YOU
IF YOU ROCK UP AND ASK A GIRL, "BABY, HOW ABOUT IT?"
THAT WON'T GET HER TO PLAY
NEED A MORE SUBTLE WAY
Chorus:
HOLD ON!
BULL IN A CHINA SHOP - SHE'S GONE!
HOLD ON!
BULL IN A CHINA SHOP - SHE'S GONE!
BULL IN A CHINA SHOP - SHE'S GONE!
Verse 2:
IT'S ALL THE SAME - WEAR JEANS OR SUIT AND TIE
JUST WEAR YOUR REGULAR CLOTHING
AIN'T HOW YOU DRESS GETS A GIRL TO ACCEPT YOUR HOT PLANS - JUST TRUST ME!
FROM YOUTH THROUGH TO LONG IN THE TOOTH
WE STRIKE OUT IF BEING UNCOUTH
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
WHEN YOU'RE RIDING AN URGE FOR SOMEWHERE PRIVATE WITH HER
DON'T BE A REJECT, LEFT WITH EGG ON YOUR FACE
BE SUAVE 'COS THAT MIGHT ENTICE
I'M GIVING YOU GOOD ADVICE
Repeat Chorus
Instrumental Chorus
Repeat Chorus - last line an extra time
