What she said :
"How come someone hasn't noticed That I'm dead And decided to bury me? God knows, I'm ready!" La-la-la... What she said was sad But then, all the rejection she's had To pretend to be happy Could only be idiocy La-la-la... What she said was not for the job or Lover that she never had Oh... No no no... What she read All heady books She'd sit and prophesise (It took a tattooed boy from Birkenhead To really really open her eyes) What she read All heady books She'd sit and prophesise (It took a tattooed boy from Birkenhead To really really open her eyes) What she said : "I smoke 'cause I'm hoping for an Early death And I need to cling to something!" What she said : "I smoke 'cause I'm hoping for an Early death And I need to cling to something!" No no no no... |

Park the car at the side of the road
You should know Time's tide will smother you And I will too When you laugh about people who feel so Very lonely Their only desire is to die Well, I'm afraid It doesn't make me smile I wish I could laugh But that joke isn't funny anymore It's too close to home And it's too near the bone It's too close to home And it's too near the bone More than you'll ever know ... Kick them when they fall down Kick them when they fall down You kick them when they fall down Kick them when they fall down You kick them when they fall down Kick them when they fall down You kick them when they fall down Kick them when they fall down It was dark as I drove the point home And on cold leather seats Well, it suddenly struck me I just might die with a smile on my Face after all I've seen this happen in other people's Lives And now it's happening in mine I've seen this happen in other people's Lives And now it's happening in mine I've seen this happen in other people's Lives And now it's happening in mine I've seen this happen in other people's Lives And now it's happening in mine Oh ... I've seen this happen in other people's Lives Oh ... And now it's happening in mine Happening in mine Happening in mine Happening in mine Happening in mine I've seen this happen in other people's Lives Oh ... And now, now, now it's happening in mine (I've seen this happen) Happening in mine Oh... now, now I've seen this happen in other people's Lives Oh ... And now it's happening in mine (Happen) Happening in mine Oh ... Happening in mine Happening in mine Happening in mine I've seen this happen in other people's Lives Oh ... And now, now, now it's happening in mine Happening in mine Mine, mine Happening in mine |
