You have never been in love until you've seen the stars reflect in the reservoirs And you have never been in love until you've seen the dawn rise behind the home for the blind We are the pretty petty thieves and you're standing on our streets where Hector was the first of the gang with a gun in his hand and the first to do time the first of the gang to die Oh my Hector was the first of the gang with a gun in his hand and the first to do time the first of the gang to die Oh my You have never been in love until you've seen the sunlight thrown over smashed human bone We are the pretty petty thieves and you're standing on our streets where Hector was the first of the gang with a gun in his hand and the first to do time the first of the gang to die such a silly boy Hector was the first of the gang with a gun in his hand and a bullet in his gullet and the first lost lad to go under the sod And he stole from the rich and the poor and the not very rich and the very poor and he stole all hearts away He stole all hearts away He stole all hearts away Away He stole all hearts away Away He stole all hearts away Away He stole all hearts away Away |

Lord these words I beg of you
As I kneel down at my bed Because soon I will be dead Let's face it soon I will be dead And I just want to I want to see the boy happy With some hope in his pale eyes Is that too much to ask? Before I die I have one final dream For my own life I don't care anything Lord these words I beg of you As I kneel down at my bed Let's face it soon I will be dead And I just want to I want to see the boy happy With his arms around his first love Is that too much to ask? Before I die I have one final dream For my own life I don't care anything And I just want to I want to see this boy happy Why is this such a bad thing? |

Irish blood, English heart This I'm made of There is no one on earth I'm afraid of And no regime can buy or sell me I've been dreaming of a time when to be English is not to be baneful to be standing by the flag, not feeling shameful racist or racial Irish blood, English heart this I'm made of There is no one on earth I'm afraid of And I will die with both of my hands untied I've been dreaming of a time when the English are sick to death of Labour, and Tories and spit upon the name Oliver Cromwell and denounce this royal line that still salute him and will salute him Forever |

Pasolini is me,
Accattone, you'll be, I entered nothing and nothing entered me, Till you came with the key, And you did your best but? As I live and breathe, You have killed me, You have killed me, Yes I walk around somehow, But you have killed me, You have killed me Piazza Cavour, What's my life for? Visconti is me, Magnani, You'll never be. I entered nothing and nothing entered me, Till you came with the key, And you did your best but? As I live and breathe, You have killed me, You have killed me, Yes I walk around somehow, But you have killed me, You have killed me Who am I, that I, come to be here? As I live and breathe, You have killed me, You have killed me, Yes I walk around somehow, But you have killed me, You have killed me And there is no point saying this again, There is no point saying this again, But I forgive you, I forgive you, Always, I do forgive you. |

I was wasting my time Trying ti fall in love Disappointment came to me and Booted me and bruised and hurt me But that's how people grow up That's how people grow up I was wasting my time Looking for love Someone must look at me And see their sunlit dream I was wasting my time Praying for love For the love that never comes from Someone who does not exist and That's how people grow up That's how people grow up Ley me live before I die Oh, not me, not I I was wasting my life Always thinking about myself Someone on the deathbed said "there are other sorrows too" I was driving my car I crashed and broke my spine So yes, there are things worse in life than Never being someone's sweetie That's how people grow up That's how people grow up As for me I'm ok For now anyway |

Trudging slowly over wet sand Back to the bench where your clothes were stolen This is the coastal town That they forgot to close down Armageddon - come Armageddon! Come, Armageddon! Come! Everyday is like Sunday Everyday is silent and grey Hide on the promenade Etch a postcard : "How I Dearly Wish I Was Not Here" In the seaside town that they forgot to bomb Come, Come, Come - nuclear bomb Everyday is like Sunday Everyday is silent and grey Trudging back over pebbles and sand And a strange dust lands on your hands (And on your face...) (On your face) (On your face) (On your face) Everyday is like Sunday "Win Yourself A Cheap Tray" Share some greased tea with me |

Late afternoon, dreaming hotel We just had the quarrel that sent you away. I was looking for you, are you gone gone ? Called you on the phone, another dimension. Well, you never returned, oh you know what I mean. I went looking for you, are you gone, gone ? Down by the ocean it was so dismal, Women all standing with a shock on their faces. Sad description, oh I was looking for you. Everyone was singing, girl is washed up On Redondo Beach and everyone is so sad. I was looking for you, are you gone gone ? Pretty little girl, everyone cried. She was the victim of sweet suicide. I went looking for you, are you gone gone ? Down by the ocean it was so dismal, Women all standing with shock on their faces. Sad description, oh I was looking for you. Desk clerk told me girl was washed up, Was small, an angel with apple blonde hair, now. I went looking for you, are you gone gone ? Picked up my key, didn't reply. Went to my room, started to cry. You were small, an angel, are you gone gone ? Down by the ocean it was so dismal. I was just standing with shock on my face. The hearse pulled away, and the girl that had died, it was you. You'll never return into my arms 'cause you were gone gone. Never return into my arms 'cause you were gone gone. Gone gone, gone gone, good-bye. |

You had to sneak into my room 'just' to read my diary "It was just to see, just to see" (All the things you knew I'd written about you) Oh, so many illustrations Oh, but I'm so very sickened Oh, I am so sickened now Oh, it was a good lay, good lay It was a good lay, good lay It was a good lay, good lay Oh It was a good lay, good lay It was a good lay, good lay Oh, it was a good lay, good lay Oh Oh, it was a good lay It was a good lay Oh, a good lay Oh, it was a good lay Good lay, good lay Oh It was a good lay |

The youngest was the most loved
The youngest was the shielded We kept him from the world's glare And he turned into a killer Retrousse nose Turned up and mischievous Forget-me-not eyes that cried if we ever left his side There is no such thing in life as normal There is no such thing in life as normal The youngest was the most loved The youngest was the cherub A small boy from a poor house Who turned into a killer A blush, it rose If he had to say 'hello' A lop-sided grin Strained to keep the shyness in There is no such thing in life as normal There is no such thing in life as normal The youngest was the most loved The youngest was the cherub The luck was all before him With a lovely wife beside him The youngest was the most loved The youngest was the cherub We kept him from the world's glare And he turned into a killer There is no such thing in life as normal There is no such thing in life as normal |

You hiss and groan
And you constantly moan But you don't ever go away And that's because all you need is me. You roll your eyes Up to the skies Mock horrified But you're still here All you need is me There's so much destruction All over the world And all you can do is complain about me You bang your head against the wall And say you're sick of it all Yet, you remain 'Cause all you need is me And then you offer your one and only joke And ask me "What will I be, When I grow up to be a man"? Me? Nothing! There's a soft voice Singing in your head Who can this be? I do believe it's me There's a naked man standing Laughing in your dreams You know who it is But you don't like what it means There's so much destruction All over the world And all you can do is complain about me I was a small fat child in a welfare house There was only one thing I ever dreamed about Fate has just handed it to me Whoopee! You don't like me but you love me, Either way you're wrong You're gonna miss me when I'm gone You're gonna miss me when I'm gone You don't like me but you love me, Either way you're wrong You're gonna miss me when I'm gone You're gonna miss me when I'm gone |

There’s a place in the sun, For anyone who has the will to chase one And I think I've found mine, Yes, I do believe I have found mine, so Close your eyes, And think of someone, You physically admire And let me kiss you, Let me kiss you I've zig-zagged all over America, And I cannot find a safety haven Say, would you let me cry, On your shoulder I've heard that you’ll will try anything twice Close your eyes, And think of someone, You physically admire, And let me kiss you, Let me kiss you But then you open your eyes, And you see someone, That you physically despise But my heart is open My heart is open to you |
