Please could somebody send me the lyrics to the Undertones "My Perfect
Cousin", as there are a few lines that I can't decipher.

Thanks in advance.

My Perfect Cousin - The Undertones

Now I've got a cousin called Kevin -
he's sure to go to heaven!
Always spotless, clean and neat,
as smooth as you can get 'em.
He's got a fur lined sheepskin jacket -
my ma said they cost a packet.
She won't even let me explain
that me and Kevin,
we just aren't the same...

Oh, my perfect cousin,
what I like to do he doesn't.
He's his family's pride and joy,
his mother's little golden boy.

He's got a degree in economics,
maths, physics and bionics!
He thinks that I'm a cabbage,
'cos I hate "University Challenge".
Even at the age of ten,
Smart boy Kevin was a smart boy then,
He always beat me at Subbuteo,
'Cos he flicked to kick,
and I didn't know!

Oh, my perfect cousin,
what I like to do he doesn't.
He's his family's pride and joy,
his mother's little golden boy.

His mother bought him a synthesiser.
(got the Human League in to advise her!)
Now he's making lots of noise,
playing along with the Art School boys.
Girls try to attract his attention,
but what a shame, it's in vain - total rejection!
He will never be left on the shelf
'cos Kevin, he's in love with himself...

Oh, my perfect cousin,
what I like to do he doesn't.
He's his family's pride and joy,
his mother's little golden boy.
