[Verse 1]

Who maddest one on the M1

Who hasn't stopped sucking his thumb

Who very straight and never grins

Who cares what car he's driving in


[Chorus]

He is because he saw it on a commercial break

And if he doesn't get what he wants then he gets a headache

Because he needs it, wants it, almost, loves it

He's here on his own, on globe alone, here on his own


[Verse 2]

Who joined health club to glisten

Into hi-fi precision

Who mobile phone gives him the bone

Who very keen on Sharon Stone


[Chorus]

He is because he saw it on a commercial break

And if he doesn't get what he wants then he gets a headache

Because he needs it, wants it, almost loves it

He's here on his own, all globe alone

Here on his own, all globe alo-lo-lo-lo-lone

And then he says


[Instrumental Break]


[Verse 3]

Who eats at the new brasserie

Who only ever gets merry

Who wouldn't be seen at bedtime

Without putting Calvin Kleins on


[Chorus]

He is because he saw it on a commercial break

And if he doesn't get what he wants then gets a headache

Because he needs it, wants it, almost loves it

He's here on his own, all globe alone

Here on his own, all globe alone

Here on his own
