Текст песни:

[Verse 1]
Well it's a big, big city and it's always the same
Can never be too pretty, tell me your name
Is it out of line if I were simply bold and say "Would you be mine?"
Because I may be a beggar and you may be the queen
I know I may be on a downer, I'm still ready to dream
Though it's three o'clock, the time is just the time it takes for you to talk

[Hook]
So if you're lonely
Why'd you say you're not lonely?
Oh you're a silly girl, I know I heard it so
It's just like you to come and go
And know me, no you don't even know me
You're so sweet to try, oh my, you caught my eye
A girl like you is just irresistible
[Verse 2]
Well it's a big, big city and the lights are all out
But it's as much as I can do you know to figure you out
And I must confess
My heart's in broken pieces and my head's a mess
And it's 4 in the morning and I'm walking along
Beside the ghost of every drinker here who's ever done wrong
And it's you, woo-hoo, that's got me going crazy for the things you do

[Hook]
So if you're crazy, I don't care, you amaze me
But you're a stupid girl, oh me, oh my, you talk
I die, you smile, you laugh, I cry
And only, a girl like you could be lonely
And it's a crying shame, if you would think the same
A boy like me is just irresistible

[Outro]
So if you're lonely, why'd you say you're not lonely
Oh you're a silly girl, I know I heard it so
It's just like you to come and go
And know me, no you don't even know me
You're so sweet to try, oh my, you caught my eye
A girl like you is just irresistible

  • We need medicine and we need it now We need medicine and we need it now We need medicine and we need it now To get us to the end of time My soul’s on fire, but my heart she’s made of stone I’d be a good man if only my wicked thoughts were known I don’t believe in nothing that isn’t shown I’m not the kind of man you take back home We need medicine and we need it now We need medicine and we need it now We need medicine and we need it now To get us to the end of time I won’t be happy til I don’t have a friend I just can’t convince myself of what I’ll never comprehend I’m not a sinner, I’ll confess at the end But don’t trust a single word I say We need medicine and we need it now We need medicine and we need it now We need medicine and we need it now To get us to the end of time I cry real tears while all my friends stand in line I’ve seen no justice in that broken hearted victory sign If I was them I would be no friend of mine I laugh when their walls come crashing down Well you could buy me for a handful of dust But I’m so cheap that gypsies only deal with me when they must I’m only happy when the gold turns to rust It’s the kind of thing that makes my day We need medicine and we need it now We need medicine and we need it now We need medicine and we need it now To get us to the end of time To get us to the end of time To get us to the end of time To get us to the end of time
  • You wear your mask, I’ll wear mine They don’t come cheap, but they fit just fine You can be her and I can be him We can both sink when the rest don’t swim Little by little by little by little by little by little by little Little by little by little by little by little by all day long We can pretend that our fates are entwined The beautiful lies the beautiful kind Everybody knows that the sun still sets And everybody gives and everybody gets Little by little by little by little by little by little by little Little by little by little by little by little by all day long Little by little by little by little by little by little by little Little by little by little by little by little by all day long I can be the one that you just can’t shake Till you swear that your eyes go blind We can disappear till the sun burns a hole In the life that we left behind And I just won’t stop till my heart gives way And you and I are a long lost myth There’s nothing very much that I wouldn’t do To be the last of the men that you romanced with The last of the men that you romanced with Little by little by little by little by little by little by little Little by little by little by little by little by all day long Little by little by little by little by little by little by little Little by little by little by little by little by all day long You wear your mask I’ll wear mine They don’t come cheap but they fit just fine We can pretend that our fates are entwined The beautiful lies the beautiful kind
  • Well let me tell you something Let me tell you so This could be the one thing That you really need to know You gotta stop once in a while And shake off that face of yours Cause nothing comes easy Oh it just comes free You could sing it better If you sing for me, oh sister Well I cannot claim This advice as my own I learnt it in the gutter One night crawling home She said don't you look rediculous I checked her out meticulously And I would've stopped to argue But my teeth were broke I said I'd love to condradict you But my life's a joke, oh sister And she said I'm no genius and I've lost myself The books are on the table, and the secret's on the shelf And it's a one time, keep it slow Wind 'em up and here we go Get it right today And you may still be here tomorrow Some said she was saintly Some she was a swinger Me, I only knew her as the Acid Jazz Singer, come on Well I'm a lucky man But maybe so is she And maybe this is just the way it has to be It's all based on speculation It's a crazy my occupation to me And though I didn't much believe her I was bound to call I really didn't wanna miss a single thing at all Oh sister And she said I'm no genius and I've lost myself The books are on the table, and the secret's on the shelf And it's a one time, keep it slow Wind 'em up and here we go Get it right today And you may still be here tomorrow Some said she was saintly Some she was a swinger Me, I only knew her as the Acid Jazz Singer, come on And she said I'm no genius and I've lost myself The books are on the table, and the secret's on the shelf And it's a one time, keep it slow Wind 'em up and here we go Get a ride today And you may be here tomorrow Some said she was saintly Some she was a swinger Me, I only knew her as the Acid Jazz Singer, come on I haven't seen her lately Well, I'll have to ring her Put your hands together for the Acid Jazz Singer, come on
  • She can't help it, the girl can't help it You can find her scratching around in the dark Just another candle chasing a spark You can find her screaming along with the ghosts Reminds you she's the one you needed the most And then you're out there on your own again No one believes you when you lie I still see all the old girls now and then Catching the moonlight as they cry She can't help it, the girl can't help it The wrong way round's the right way up when she calls You can laugh but it won't mean nothing at all Yes you can find her scratching away in her room Stumblin' round by the light of the stragglers moon And then you're out there digging holes again Six million people can't be wrong Some day you'll buy the perfect soul and then you can get back where you belong And then you're out there on your own again No one believes you when you lie I still see all the old girls now and then catching the moonlight when they cry
  • Well here lie the remains Of every girl I’ve loved The princesses of heaven and hell Who thought they knew me well There goes my wishbone Here comes my crooked friend Screaming at you I was dead True right down to the end I was in a fury With a judge and with a jury You could tell I was a wicked man Well there was no one on the wall But the stupid and the small But they always do the best they can Well here lies Mother Brown She always looked so young I was never too easy to please Always on my knees Well there goes my last hope Here comes my bullet train Shooting the hole in my head On the wrong right side of my brain I was getting ready I was shaking I was steady I was pleading to be left alive Well I was digging for the gold Just waiting to be told That my cheating heart would survive I was in a fury With a judge and with a jury You could tell I was a wicked man Well there was no one on the wall But the stupid and the small But they always do the best they can Well here lie the remains of Celine and Lady Death A romance stringed up in a hole Another uneven soul There goes my last wish Here comes my audience Pitchforks pointing my way And it’s no coincidence I was in a bind Of the body and the mind And my mother was the last to know When I told her I was rotten I was better off forgotten And she never even said no, no, no, no, no I was never thick But the thought it wouldn’t click So I never had the best excuse You couldn’t say that I was best So they put me to the test With a never ending soul abuse I was in a fury With a judge and with a jury You could tell I was a wicked man Well there was no one on the wall But the stupid and the small But they always do the best they can I was getting ready I was shaking I was steady I was pleading to be left alive Well I was digging for the gold Just waiting to be told That my cheating heart would survive
