As merry as the days were long
|
I am right and you were long
|
back at the old grey school
|
I would win and you would lose
|
|
But you've got everything now
|
you've got everything now
|
and what a terrible mess I've made of my life
|
oh what a mess I've made of my life
|
|
No, I've never had a job
|
because I've never wanted one
|
I've seen you smile
|
but I've never really heard you laugh
|
so who is rich and who is poor?
|
I cannot say...
|
|
You are your Mother's only son
|
and you're a desperate one
|
but I don't want a lover
|
I just want to be seen
|
in the back of your car
|
|
A friendship sadly lost?
|
well, this is true
|
and yet, it's false
|
but did I ever tell you, by the way
|
I never did like your face
|
|
But you've got everything now
|
you've got everything now
|
and what a terrible mess I've made of my life
|
oh what a mess I've made of my life
|
|
No, I've never had a job
|
because I'm too shy
|
I've seen you smile
|
but I've never really heard you laugh
|
so who is rich and who is poor?
|
I cannot say...
|
|
You are your Mother's only son
|
and you're a desperate one
|
but I don't want a lover
|
I just want to be tied
|
to the back of your car
|
to the back of your car
|
to the back of your car
|
to the back of your car
|
