Upon the sand, upon the bay
|
"There is a quick and easy way" you say
|
Before you illustrate
|
I'd rather state :
|
"I'm not the man you think I am
|
I'm not the man you think I am"
|
|
And Sorrow's native son
|
He will not smile for anyone
|
|
|
And Pretty Girls Make Graves
|
Oh ...
|
|
|
End of the pier, end of the bay
|
You tug my arm, and say : "Give in to lust,
|
Give up to lust, oh heaven knows we'll
|
Soon be dust ... "
|
|
|
Oh, I'm not the man you think I am
|
I'm not the man you think I am
|
|
|
And Sorrow's native son
|
He will not rise for anyone
|
|
|
And Pretty Girls Make Graves
|
Oh ...
|
|
|
I could have been wild and I could have
|
Been free
|
But Nature played this trick on me
|
|
|
She wants it Now
|
And she will not wait
|
But she's too rough
|
And I'm too delicate
|
|
|
Then, on the sand
|
Another man, he takes her hand
|
A smile lights up her stupid face
|
(and well, it would)
|
|
|
I lost my faith in Womanhood
|
I lost my faith in Womanhood
|
I lost my faith ...
|
Oh ...
|
|
|
Hand in glove ...
|
The sun shines out of our behinds ...
|
Oh ...
|
