This place was once a home,
But now you're gone.
Gone like the sun,
You took away,
It was coming so they say.
This boy and his heavy heart,
Were feeling small.
Kicking around the leaves,
It seems,
We're so vacant after all.
There's nothing more to say,
Let me sleep these dreams away,
We'll check out soon.
Me and the Belle,
She knows me so well,
She don't want my soul,
She's not in control.
Oh, find me place,
A discounted space,
A hole in the ground,
Nobody's favourite now.
This night,
This pretty light,
With my best friends.
Keeping the hounding dogs away,
From my window night and day.
This place was once a home
But now it's still
All of the stars are sleeping low
On my broken windowsill
Won't you let me be
Just the old has-beens and me
I'll check out soon
Rolling in style
Be gone for a while
A million and one
Has-beens in the sun
Pretending to care
Going nowhere
Floating around
Nobody's favourite now
Well there's nothing more to say
Let me sleep these dreams away
And won't you let me be
Just the old has-beens and me
We'll check out soon
Rolling in style
Be gone for a while
A million and one
Has-beens in the sun
Pretending to care
Oh going nowhere
Just floating around
Nobody's favourite... now
Well every night I burn Just like a heretic And take my turn Among the lunatics Follow me, follow me Follow me down Follow me, follow me Follow me down And the stars are blind I’m unpredictable There’s no real sign But I’m incurable Follow me, follow me Follow me down Follow me, follow me Follow me down Baby won’t you make a believer out of me I’ve been in the dark for so long that I can’t see Tell me all your beautiful lies one last time Dress me in your favorite disguise, I’ve been blind Well every night I fade Into the chaos of this world I made When I was in between Follow me, follow me Follow me down Follow me, follow me Follow me down Baby won’t you make a believer out of me I’ve been in the dark for so long that I can’t see Tell me all your beautiful lies one last time Dress me in your favorite disguise, I’ve been blind Follow me, follow me Follow me down Follow me, follow me Follow me down Baby won’t you make a believer out of me I’ve been in the dark for so long that I can’t see Tell me all your beautiful lies one last time Dress me in your favorite disguise, I’ve been blind I’ve been blind I’ve been blind I’ve been blind I’ve been blind I’ve been blind
I'm trying to keep my brains from getting dry
There's only way I know
I'm gonna bolt shut the windows
Barricade the doors
Let all of my judgements go
I'll take the meat from the table
Talk straight while I'm able
Untill I'm nothing less than a crime
Until my heart stops beating
I will drink myself too much wine
Well I know I'm getting nowhere
Creeping up the backstair
Telling myself I'm in pain
Even I don't believe me
I'm threatening to leave me
Till only my dumbness remains
Well even schoolgirls deride me
There's something dead inside me
I'd give away my blood for a sign
Until my ship comes in
I'm gonna drink myself too much wine
Too much wine, too much wine
I'll be your best kind of friend
I'll be submissive to the end of the line
And when the clock strikes seven
They can cut me down in my prime
I'll be your last witchdoctor
I'll be anything for too much wine
I'm trying to keep my brains from getting dry
There's only way I know
I'm gonna bolt shut the windows
Barricade the door
Let all of my judgements go
I'll take the meat from the table
Talk straight while I'm able
Untill I'm nothing less than a crime
Until my heart stops beating
I will drink myself too much wine
Too much wine, too much wine
Too much wine
I'll be your best kind of friend
I'll be submissive to the end of the line
And when the clock strikes seven
They can cut me down in my prime
I'll be your last witchdoctor
I'll be anything for too much wine
Too much wine, too much wine
I'll be your best kind of friend
I'll be submissive to the end of the line
And when the clock strikes seven
They can cut me down in my prime
I'll be your last witchdoctor too much wine
I'll be anything for too much wine
I'll be your last witchdoctor too much wine
I'll be anything for too much wine
I'll be your last witchdoctor too much wine
I'll be anything for too much wine
Whistle for the boys now don’t be shy
Give us all a song and a reason why
Baby got the bones and a hand me down
Says her heart is black but her eyes are brown
Give the boys a flash and they’ll love you so
Give the girl some cash cause your mother said so
And take em out to look at the queen
And any old girl who’s in between
Lay yourself down by the side of the bed
Oh you naughty girl you know you tickle me red
You look so dumb and you sound so twee
And you can only wish that you was married to me
Well, that’s what you get
Oh don’t get upset
Ridiculous you
Waiting in the queue oh whoopee doo
You could have been
The best that I’ve seen
Under the red light
Everybody knows you cried last night
Give us all a go till your face turns red
Little Greg said you went home instead
If you stick around you’ll get an alibi
And we’ll try and keep your pretty face bone dry
Rent a honey rent a honey one two three
Chasing all the boys from your door cant be easy
Well ruby said you was wrecked
But your was never well behaved the last time I checked
Lay yourself down by the side of the bed
Oh you naughty girl you know you tickle me red
You look so dumb and you sound so twee
And you can only wish that you was married to me
Well that’s what you get
Oh don’t get upset
Ridiculous you
Waiting in the queue oh whoopee doo
You could have been
The best that I’ve seen
Under the red light every body knows you cried last night
Lay yourself down by the side of the bed
Oh you naughty girl you know you tickle me red
You look so dumb and you sound so twee
You can only wish that you were married to me
Well that’s what you get
Oh don’t get upset
Ridiculous you
Waiting in the queue oh whoopee doo
You could have been
The best that I’ve seen
Under the red light
Everybody knows you cried last night
Everybody knows you cried last night
Well let’s get one thing straight before I lose my place Oh baby, yes I love your conversation, not just your face You got my undivided sympathy and all of my time And though I promised you an answer Truth’s no real friend of mine I never did get the meaning of reality checks I dreamed my way out of the bedroom with no time to reflect Oh you could cut me and I wouldn’t bleed, I’m not even sure If you could say I was with you or call you mine anymore You always throw your hands up like some good little girl Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world There was a cold wear reality that you couldn’t take You never made a single friend or a dishonest mistake You were a Halloween denier of the second degree And that says more about your mother than it does about me ‘Cause I was always at your heels, I was there with a grin When you were crawling through the backstreets of the lies and the sin I was the poster boy for nothing and no sir candidate I would have swept you off your feet but I got lost in your gate You never trusted anything that staggered and swerved Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world You never had a reason, you were hopelessly lost You never kept the names of all the people you crossed You always had my sympathy whenever you died But all I could deliver was a headache to the bride You always throw your hands up like some good little girl Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world
