Lyrics New Pen-pal - Peter Hammill

She wants to be your new pen-pal,
Wants to regale you with some confidences.
You might consider there'll be consequences to address
When all the fences break down.

She wants to be your new neighbour,
She doesn't care much about conventional boundaries
And personal space is just a piece of ground
She's ready to break.
She's aching to take you on now.

She's closing in,
She's homing in,
She's on a mission.

She wants to be your new girlfriend,
Won't take the answer "no" if you advance it,
She makes her move and yes, she takes her chances
When she can.
Chances are she's taking you down.

She's on a mission.

She wants to be your new pen-pal.
