Tallyman

He′s watching you in here
He's watching you out there
He′s nameless and faceless
He is everywhere

He's counting up the costs
He's checking out the price
He is at the checkout
To value your life

No extra favours – you′re good or you′re bad
No special offers allowed
So add up the fear – and minus the gain
It all comes out even – he's dealing the pain

The tallyman – the tallyman
Ho ho ho
The tallyman – the tallyman
Ho ho ho

No discounting today
It is your time to pay
So shameless and dangerous
That′s his way to play

Your warranty's run out
The estimates don′t fail
One size fits all
It's a closing-down-sale

No extra favours – you′re good or you're bad
No special offers allowed
So add up the fear – and minus the gain
It all comes out even – he's dealing the pain

The tallyman – the tallyman
Ho ho ho
The tallyman – the tallyman
Ho ho ho

No extra favours – you′re good or you′re bad
No special offers allowed
So add up the fear – and minus the gain
It all comes out even – he's dealing the pain

The tallyman – the tallyman
Ho ho ho
The tallyman – the tallyman
Ho ho ho

The tallyman – the tallyman
Ho ho ho
The tallyman – the tallyman
Ho ho ho
