Standing in the dock at Southampton, trying to get to Holland Or France
|
The man in the mac said, "you've got to go back,"
|
you know they didn't even give us a chance
|
|
Christ!
|
You know it ain't easy, you know how hard it can be
|
The way things are going, they're gonna crucify me.
|
|
Finally made the plane into Paris, honeymooning down by the Seine.
|
Peter Brown called to say, "you can make it O.K.,
|
You can get married in Gibraltar near Spain."
|
|
Christ!
|
You know it ain't easy, you know how hard it can be
|
The way things are going, they're gonna crucify me.
|
|
Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton, talking in our beds for a week.
|
The newspeople said, "say what you doing in bed?"
|
I said "we're only trying to get us some peace."
|
|
Christ!
|
You know it ain't easy, you know how hard it can be
|
The way things are going, they're gonna crucify me.
|
|
Saving up your money for a rainy day,
|
Giving all your clothes to charity,
|
Last night the wife said,
|
"Oh boy, when you're dead you don't take nothing with your soul"
|
Think!
|
|
Made a lightning trip to Vienna, eating chocolate cake in a bag.
|
The newspapers said, "she's going to his head,"
|
They look like two Gurus in drag."
|
|
Christ!
|
You know it ain't easy, you know how hard it can be
|
The way things are going, they're gonna crucify me.
|
|
Caught the early plane back to London, fifty acorns tied in a sack.
|
The men from the press said, "we wish you success,
|
It's good to have the both of you back."
|
|
Christ!
|
You know it ain't easy, you know how hard it can be
|
The way things are going, they're gonna crucify me.
|
The way things are going, they're gonna crucify me.
