I've always been impressed with a girl
|
Who could sing for her supper and get breakfast as well
|
That's the way I am
|
heaven help me
|
He said we don't like peace campaigners round here
|
As he nailed another one to the wall
|
And that's what gets me in trouble
|
heaven help me
|
|
Goodbye and good luck
|
To all the promises you've broken
|
Goodbye and good luck
|
To all the rubbish that you've spoken
|
Your life has lost its dignity
|
Its beauty and its passion
|
You're an accident waiting to happen
|
|
There you are standing at the bar
|
And you're giving me grief about the DDR
|
And that chip on your shoulder get bigger as you get older
|
One of these nights you're gonna get caught
|
It'll give you a pregnant pause for thought
|
You're a dedicated swallower of fascism
|
|
Time up and time out
|
For all the liberties you've taken
|
Time up and time out
|
For all the friends that you've forsaken
|
If you chose to waste away
|
Like death is back in fashion
|
You're an accident waiting to happen
|
|
My sins are so unoriginal
|
I have all the self loathing of a wolf in sheep's clothing
|
In this carnival of carnivores
|
heaven help me
|
