Lyrics:

You expect me to treat you like a brother
After what you done
You must be an extremely innocent boy

You gone and held the handle of my lover
You had such fun
You must be an extremely innocent boy

And after that you come romping in in my dressing gown
Angel of the decade, you flash so coy
You said to me to go and find another
Now that she's gone
You must be an extremely innocent boy

Kind sir, what's the use of violence to us?
Can't you keep your voice in silence, please don't make no fuss
I'm in her and she's in me
Sometimes that's the way it has to be

You expect me to be your dumb dumbwaiter, and that's not fair
You must be an extremely innocent boy
You said to me, we'll see about it later
But you don't care
You must be an extremely innocent boy

And after that you come steaming in in my eider down
Angel of the decade, you flash so coy

You got no respect for another's ultimatum
You wanna share
You must be an extremely innocent boy

Angel of the decade, you flash so 
Angel of the decade, you flash so
Angel of the decade, you flash so coy
