Текст песни:

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

  • Saw the night give way Where the light was golden So I took my leave Of all that I was holding Darling come the day When your nightmares fall I’ll be on that first plane home And we’ll outrun them all Well I guess it’s sweet We still live like strangers in the street It’s the cruelest thing When the word is spoken I swear it’s a sin To see you heartbroken Darling come the day It’s too much to breathe I’ll hold this space for you And I won’t let you leave I will keep the beat We’ll still move like strangers in the street Darling come the time When you slip away I’ll be that whispered word That hangs around your doorway Our tale complete We’ll still dance like strangers in the street
  • Ghost lights on the water almost makes you shiver Black dog at 4:00 am, oh baby, just surrender When you’ve had enough of all this entertainment Come to me and I’ll slip you the answer Take the long road when in doubt Take the long road and you’ll find your way out Keep the needle spinning ’round Find a place and just lay your body down Find a place and just lay your body down Headlights, alarm bells always kept you moving Red sun sets and daydreams, baby, just you keep ’em coming When you’ve had enough of all of your creations Come to me and I’ll show you the river Take the long road when in doubt Take the long road and you’ll find your way out Keep the needle spinning round Find a place and just lay your body down Find a place and just lay your body down And you hide And you hide yourself away And you hide And you hide yourself away Take the long road when in doubt Take the long road and you’ll find your way out Keep the needle spinning ’round Find a place and just lay your body down Find a place and just lay your body down Find a place and just lay your body down

  • Red eyes, tell me twice Sure I’ll put my hopes on ice Fair skin, empty face Help me keep my nerve in place Read my lips, time slips Slowly from your fingertips Make my night, hold tight Thrill me till my teeth go white Be my myth or be your sin Save me at your own expense Well it’s just like a girl I can keep a boy guessing I’ll wring you by the neck and I’ll teach you such a lesson I’ll bleed from my profession Here is my confession Give me half a chance and you can be my new obsession I’ll take your only sympathy Put me out my misery Blow me one more kiss and baby you can have the best of me Next time we wed I’ll be on my best behavior Next time we wed I’ll be everybody’s savior Next time we wed Darling I’ll be a saint I’ll be wrong when you’re right Keep my mouth shut and lips tight Beg from my toes to my head The next time we wed Tell me this for nothing Make me dignified Kiss me as you’re leaving Just so you can say you tried Make me sentimental Beat me black and blue Hit me up it’s just so simple Darling I’m too good for you Well it’s just like a girl I can keep a boy guessing I’ll wring you by the neck and I’ll teach you such a lesson I’ll bleed from my profession Here is my confession Give me half a chance and you can be my new obsession I’ll take your only sympathy Put me out my misery Blow me one more kiss and baby you can have the best of me Next time we wed I’ll be on my best behavior Next time we wed I’ll be everybody’s savior Next time we wed I’ll be handsome in the daylight Next time we wed Oh honey I will lose my stage fright Next time we wed I won’t specialize in failure Next time we wed I’ll be everybody’s savior Next time we wed Honey I’ll be a saint I’ll be wrong when you’re right Keep my mouth shut and lips tight Beg from my toes to my head The next time we wed The next time we wed The next time we wed The next time we wed
  • Well you’ve been scratching around in the basement Looking for somewhere to hide Making your own entertainment Trying hard to salvage some pride Well you’re the last of the original orphans And baby you’re a wonderful friend I love the way you say I’m forgiven And that I don’t have to pretend I’m no squeeze Well I’m no Monday’s child Tell me please Half a made up story Of syncopated glory Of when you and the kid ran wild And I know your kind You’ve got a dirty mind You think that half the world’s gone blind Well don’t ya And I can’t get on While you should be just good as gone When everything you say sounds wrong Oh yes it does Oh baby why don’t ya Well you say you only want to amuse me Just flash me that toothless smile You tie me up in words that confuse me And terrorize me all the while Aw you’re so twee And you’re so very dim Every time we meet You tell me of the time When you wish that you was mine And now it hurts you when you try to begin And I know your kind You’ve got a filthy mind You think that half the world’s gone blind Well don’t ya And I can’t get on While you should be just good as gone When everything you say sounds wrong Oh yes it does Oh baby why don’t ya Oh baby why don’t ya Oh I know your kind You’ve got a filthy mind You think that half the world’s gone blind Don’t ya And I can’t get on While you should be just good as gone When everything you say sounds wrong Oh yes it does Oh baby why don’t ya Oh baby why don’t ya Oh baby why don’t ya Oh baby why don’t ya
