I kick myself when you did not show
A clue to a puzzle that I thought I’d know
A reflection in a window but it’s not quite clear
Just why the hell you disappear?

I’ve searched all along these rows of terraces for you
I’ve searched all the terraces for you
But we’ll never get through anything
If we’re moving at this rate
Honey you’ve got, you’ve got
You’ve got to pick up the pace

The drunken boys scream something crass
And they’re all reeling in the aftermath
They swore they saw you just this week past
The ball is dropped so the chain reacts

I’ve searched all along these rows of terraces for you
I’ve searched all the terraces for you
But we’ll never get through anything if we’re moving at this rate
Honey you’ve got, you’ve got
You’ve got to pick up the pace
Pick up the pace

I know, sometimes it’s rough
But you can’t act up every time you’ve had enough
Oh I know, you’ve made mistakes
But it’s time you started picking up the pace
(Pick up the pace)

I’ve searched all along these rows of terraces for you
I’ve searched all the terraces for you
But we’ll never get through anything if we’re moving at this rate
Honey you’ve got, you’ve got, you’ve got to pick up the pace
Pick up the pace
