Текст песни:

Well she said I know, but I just can’t tell
Everything that you’ve just been saying
Lucy was there as well in the dark
When the kids in the band were playing
No one can hear a word or tell
What the girl was singing
See, she must’ve been 16 or 18
I’m just past caring
She was into the Stones when
I was into the Roses
She was breaking my bones when
I was busting their noses
She would tell me a secret
I would lose it the next day
You’re not pleased that you’re easy
Makes you sick in a bad way
And all the while the girls sang
La la la la and she sang
Kickings for my sweetheart
Bruises that I just don’t miss
And she said, I can’t love you any more than this
Ah, she said, she said, no, no, no, no
Oh then again, yes, why don’t you kill me
I said when I’m messed up like this
Sweetheart you know that don’t thrill me
Said I would’ve been there for you if you’d just been a little bit nicer
I was dead by Sunday half dead, scared just trying to please her
She was getting me pills when
I was into her best friend
She was chasing the thrills
And living down at the West End
She was pretty in braces
I lived under of her window
She said, take me to London
Tell me something I don’t know
And all the while the girls sang
La la la la and she sang
Kickings for my sweetheart
Bruises that I just don’t miss
And she said, I can’t love you any more than this
She was into the Stones when
I was into the Roses
She was breaking my bones when
I was busting their noses
She would tell me a secret
I would lose it the next day
You’re not pleased that you’re easy
Makes you sick in a bad way
And all the while the girls sang
La, la, la, la, and she sang
Kickings for my sweetheart
Bruises that I just don’t miss
And she said I don’t like you, you can’t stand me
I can’t love you anymore than this

  • Well I met her in a bar, the men with big guitars were playin And I listened with my ears but I couldn’t hear what she was sayin And I guess she talked with her mind But didn’t want to seem to unkind so I just laughed And kept my eyes peeled to the door………. Wondering what I was there for But it’s alright, it’s alright It’s alright, it’s alright I got my nuts from a hippy in a camper van on Saturday night Well I asked if she believed in Adam and Eve the fable And I guess she would’ve given me an answer if only she was able And she danced like a medicine man Drew a crazy picture on my hand and told me She wanted to change my point of view Asked me where I was going to Well she whispered in my ear we got to get us out of here to the country I asked her for a ride she took me aside said «try me» I thought I’m gonna wake pretty soon In the middle of a Sunday afternoon just dreamin And it was warm in the back of her van When she made me a real man
  • Pardon me sugar I’m the man underneath your palm Well I won’t take your balance and I won’t chew your bubblegum White heat, indiscreet, any day now obsolete Know you’ve seen your best days I will still walk down your empty street Well you look like salvation but you taste like a refugee You say you’ve got no soul but you look like you do to me If I was the melody you were the symphony Honey loving you took the very best of me I don’t need your red wine covered sympathy Just another punchline in your stand up tragedy Well I’ve been pushing up daisies just to catch a glimpse of something real When I see you coming I might just as well give up a meal Well if you saw me broken won’t you put me out my misery Well I don’t do handsome and you don’t do sympathy If I was the melody you were the symphony Honey loving you took the very best of me I don’t need your red wine covered sympathy Just another punchline in your stand up tragedy Wrong from the get go Let it slide Tell me what they don’t know Sing them praises far and wide Give those speeches Ring them bells Mama don’t know what she preaches But she sure looks dignified Well she sure looks dignified Well she sure looks dignified If I was the melody you were the symphony Honey loving you took the very best of me I don’t need your red wine covered sympathy Just another punchline in your stand up tragedy Take my only guarantee I could be your slave if you’d only beg for me I don’t need your red wine covered sympathy Just another punchline in your Stand up Sit down Lie back Turn round Play dead For me Stand up tragedy
  • 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
  • Well I was chasing down flies and shooting up women Trying to get the whole thing straight in my head Lookin for a girl who’d come with me swimming And come and play tunes at the end of my bed And all the hardmen were drinkin down petrol Bamming up the girls when in came the law Heading for the door and getting tongue tied When they asked me what exactly I saw Chorus: So I’ll get some Monte Christo’s And we can all go see the band Well I may not be a looker yeah But I’ll help you any way I can Back at my room I was making me nervous Watching TV and picking my feet Wishing I was pretty and burning my shoes And wishing for once I’d kept the receipt I called myself and wondered out loud Tried to get the whole thing straight in my head I left the tape running and played it back Twice but I couldn’t make sense of what I had said Chorus Bridge: Well it may not make you handsome And it may not even make you feel aliiiiiiive You may not have the ransom But you can always count on this It’s him and them and she and me And sick and muddy, everybody Alt Chorus: So you can bring y 124a our wasters banjo Bring yer sister and her friend Diane Well I may not have a big boys pistol But I’ll help them any way I can Alt Chorus 2: And you can call me Cinderella! You can make me your best man Well you may be a right old queen But I’ll help you any way I can
