Put us on a life support machine from the day we're born,
didn't realise it was just our dawn. By the media we've been accepted, but in reality still rejected. From the start it won't last, but now that's all in the past. Never admit to being wrong, five years on and we're still going strong. Given a year to pack up and die, take the taking, run and hide. Said 'race against time', thought it was clever, time is immortal and we're forever. So five years on and we should be dead, new ideas in the same old head. Don't need help, don't need a tutor, you're our past and we're your future. It's a race against time, but whose racing ? 'Cus we've already won. |

On the streets they're after me,
won't let me go, won't let me be. This opression is screwing my head, if I ain't careful I'll end up dead. I'm living my life .. .. I'm living my life on the edge of a knife. Loving her was the mistake I made, defending her honour with a steel blade. Three on to one just isn't fair .. but now they're in intensive care. So now I'm running all over the world, all because of a stupid girl. But I've gotta carry on, I've gotta be brave, else I'll end up in my grave. |

Lycanthropy is in his blood,
and spreads to those he slays. Uncontrolled metamorphosis, undetectable by day. But when the moon is waxing, and all the world's asleep. Through woods and fields, the werewolf he will creep. Even a man who is pure heart, and says his prayers at night .. can become a werewolf when the wolfsbane blooms, and the Autumn moon is bright. He instinctively seeks to kill, the thing he loves the best. He'll bare his teeth, growl and snarl, and wish upon you death. His suffused eyes will glare in hate, silver-grey hair will shine. He'll grip you in his muscular arms, and on your your flesh will dine. Cures are rare for this schizophrenic, a Marfisa flower is a start. Silver topped cane, a crucifix, a silver bullet through the heart. |

State executioner, there's no hope,
for the men that hang on th eend of your rope. You think you're safe no-one can tell, what they'll do when you get to hell. State executioner .. Got the papers, you need your boss, that man is not guilty you don't give a toss. Pull the lever, watch him swing, state executioner, murderous king. State executioner, just the same, as the people you kill in the government's name. Slip on the hood, open the hatch, you're no better than those you dispatch. State executioner, punishing men, although it's for ever and ever amen. Fame and fortune damnation you've got, state executioner you should be shot. |

Tracks in his arm made him a man,
No-one could understand. Each night he'd go out shooting skag, Met a pusher who sold him a bag. That's why he was .. Dead on arrival .. .. Ran out of money so he stole a car, tried to run but didn't get far. Sent to prison, no turning back, saw his arm, weaned him off smack. Out on parole tried to keep calm, finally died with a needle in his arm. Yes out on parole, tried to keep calm, finally died with a needle in his arm. |

We'll lead you into victory, you hear the generals say.
Never look behind you, we're with you all the way. Go to bed early, conserve your energy, tomorrow we'll be fighting with our enemy. Polish your boots, clean your gun, killing those bastards will be a lot of fun. Take no prisoners, kill them all. Start to march when you hear the call. Britain needs you, Britain needs you .. Britain needs you to die for her. Marching into victory, marching in the mud. Fighting for freedom, fighting in th eblood. There's dead bodies all around, you're told to carry on. Death is not right, war cannot be won. March along you see a flash, fall to the ground and make a splash. You awake you're lying in the bed, eyes are shut you think you're dead. Lost your arm, you've lost your leg, lost you're job, you'll have to beg. You'll get loads of sympathy, a picture in the Evening Post. But where were the generals when you needed them most ? |

You're a freak I guess you know .. ..
you're belong in a side-show. The shape of your head, length of your neck, on the whole you're a fucking wreck. Freak .. of nature, freak, god I hate yer .. You get victimised wherever you go, and you're too thick to even know. You grow uglier everyday, it's not your fault you look that way. But you've got friends and lots of money .. behind your back they think you're funny. Sticking to you like a lot of leeches, disregarding your grotesque features. |

You're like a kind of religion,
I see you each night on television. I can't remember all your names, I love you running through my veins. Alcohol, oh alcohol, I love you in my brains. Acohol, oh alcohol, I never want you again. I come and see you every night, take out my purse and i'll buy you a pint . Would you like another ? No thanks, tonight i'm wearing incontinence pants. |

No survivors in this game of hate, we all get changed in a certain way.
Our ideals changed by mortar, there isn't a person who doesn't pay. No survivors, burst the bubble. No survivors, too much trouble. No survivors, your just a pawn. No survivors, don't conform. Boys mature to men in weeks, while rivals stay on the boil. The time is right, the 'real' cowards, we all suffer at this toil. So patriots who wear your flag, can enlist and die together. I'll stay at home, protect MY world, do two years and wear a white feather. The fields in France are full of heroes, now only poppies remain. Their colour red, their number many, and still not achieved their aim. |

Out on a limb, got no enjoyment, stoney broke, got no employment.
It's something no-one else can see, I've gotta end my misery. Self destruct, self destruct, I said I'm gonna. Self destruct, fill my head with a piece of lead. Had enough of this recession, their bullshit caused my depression. Their ways make me feel small, now I'm gonna end it all. Count-down's over this is it, my life is spent it's now I quit. Done my best to aid this caper, one less name on a piece of paper. .. blow my brain |

Big women, I like the size, big women flabby thighs.
Big women, big women, big women .. they fill my eyes. Oooh a a ah ! Here they come, walking down the street, big and bouncy look so neat. I like them best between the sheets, big women give me a treat. Skinny wenches will not do, I need a big one to see me through. I've gotta get some meat to see me through the night, in the morning I feel alright. |

My nerves are really bad, it's the best time I've ever had. I'm a sick boy and there's no cure. I'm a sick boy there should be more. But I'm happy the way I am, like a sardine in can. People taking notes, people in white coats. I see school girls everywhere, short skirts and pig-tailed hair. But why must I suffer .. for being a gym slip lover ? |

Exempt from the laws which you created,
your thought out lies becoming dated. Ruin our lives then plead for support, the noose around your neck is getting taught. Slit your own throat. Your ignorance is hard to believe, do you want this country to bleed ? Stuck in a rut full of rot, complain about things you haven't got. Disrupt the lives of those around, it's time you lot were underground. But no-one hears when you start to moan, sulk in self-pity 'till the cows come home. |

Perpetual torture, from those we love to hate.
It's meant to be, you can't change fate. We got a time bomb .. .. 5-4-3-2-1 go The time will come when we gotta say no. Decide ourselves who's friend or foe. It's in our hands, above your head. Think carefully or you'll be dead. It's happened before, been called a traitor. 'Cos we control .. the detonator. |

And now I want a night of lust. Can't wait around here anymore. So take me home you dirty whore. Slut, slut .. Dirty bitch I've had too many pints of poison, now I wanna try your pants on. I don't care if you're really crude, I wanna see you in the nude. Suppose you think it's fun to. tease. Spread around social disease Don't care how many you have had. Just lie down I want it bad. You think you look pretty cute. Black and shiny diving suit. High heels with a nine inch spike. Something about you I know I like. |

He'll be buzzing in your head, when you're long gone.
Fever burning, stomach churning he can take you on. Maniac, he's a maniac and he's on the loose. A wild eyed maniac seeks you out, he wanted some revenge. A man obsessed, a man possessed he'll get you in the end. He can read all your thoughts so don't run for cover. There's aftermath in his path, he's gonna maim another. Your face will turn a ghostly white as he comes into view. To slice you up is not enough, he must disfigure you. |

An easy job but it went wrong, I could not understand.
But how could they stop me with this magnum in my hand ? Just a kid now he always will be. Gunned down gunned down. Fell like a stone in a war of his own. It can blow a hole in a steel door it can blow a hole in you. It can blow the guts out of any cop, but then what would I do ? The blood is spilt it burns my eyes a pain I cannot bear. I'm lying in the gutter crying in despair. So I've failed in my quest of crime my one and only vice. Gunned down by a sniper, for trying to improve my life. |

Shivers running down my spine, whose blood I know it's mine ?
I'm a moving target and I can't go home. Chased forever and a day of my choosing my own way. I don't wanna forget the things I've done. I am the hunted .. No-one's hurt now I've escaped no-one killed and no-one raped. But I'm the monster they wanna catch. My kids live alone with a stranger their mother's dead I killed her. A moment's anger and a life of pain. Running scared I know my number, I know no joy, only hunger. I don't want to forget the things I've done. Remorse regret, it's more than anger everywhere I go there's danger. I could take my life but still no wife. Stop and think with my mixed up mind of sanctuary I can find. Another night like this and I think I'll die. How can I prove my innocence when this country's run by ignorants .. as blind and deaf as a newborn child ? |

The memory lingers on when you were the same as us.
Three months old a child, still you lived off love and fuss. City baby, city baby, city baby attacked by rats. Residing in a squalid place, it can't be too much fun. Your brain is getting eaten away by the rat living in your skull. A mutant at the age of one, a human rodent cabbage. It's hard to think a tiny thing can do that much damage. |

There's no one up there there never was.
Only in vain is there a god. There's too much suffering for him to be .. an almighty power, a heavenly being. My god, your god, whose god, there is no god ? The fabric of prophet's ages old. Drones on and gathers mould. Gets a weekly airing from a fool on high. Who talks and talks till his throat's dry. A fund for a roof with a hole. It's the money they'll save not your soul. Persistant begging from men of the cloth. Refuse his offer and see his wrath. The weak ones kneel to him they pray. "Oh saviour come back someday". Sinning whilst waiting for a sign. I deny him he's yours not mine. |

They shocked the world cause they wanted to live.
They had no food, no alternative. Lost in the snow weak in the mind. Starving and cold ate their own kind. Had no choice, lost and alone. Eat the flesh, spit out the bone. Malnutrition was setting in. They needed protein and a will to win. Cannibalism the only way .. the logical answer to live another day. A code of conduct they must go by. No sign of help coming from the sky. How much longer can they survive .. with only human flesh to keep them alive ? |

The adrenaline flows as the shadow grows.
Footsteps clatter and my teeth chatter. They're here again to administer. Heavy discipline, is everyone listening ? Heavy discipline, no one should be listening. You'll get a gut feeling as they send you reeling. You'll feel the heat as they knock you off your feet. There's no escape .. from this social rape. You've gotta pay, being young today. So the pressure's on and the freedom's gone. The line gets thin with all this discipline. |

Just met a girl down in Boston, I asked her for her name.
Said she wouldn't tell me for she was ashamed but I know. Boston baby, Boston baby, why you so scared, why ? Boston baby, Boston baby, I'm gonna take you high You better stop your crying girl and jump into my car. Said you want overkill, me and you will go far. Boston baby, Boston baby, now you've got it made. Boston baby, Boston baby, your carriages are paid. Boston baby, Boston baby, walking down the street. Boston baby, Boston baby, you'll knock them off their feet. |

I met you at a party, it was 10 pm.
I was outside being sick so I called inside again. I opened another bottle, but that made 'em feel worse. I was sick for the second time, it made me shout and curse. The music played so loud it made my ears pop. When I went dancing, down at the Bell End Bop. They were doing it on the tables, they were doing it on the chairs. They were doing it on the dance floor, they were doing it upstairs. But the police came and raided the place, said the music was too loud. I didn't want to get recognized so I mingled with the crowd. There were people dressed as Batman, they really looked a mess. Then to my amazement I found it was a fancy dress. A young girl came up to me she was tall and slim, had oranges down her bra said she was Nell Gwyn. There's only one place where you can rock. Come on, let's go dancing, down at the Bell End Bop. |

Smoke and fire are burning bright, we'll set the tinderbox alight.
Rising from the ashes the phoenix lives, life and death the red flame gives. Give me fire, on which I feed, give me fire, 'cus it's a need. Real fine, I can tell, real fine really burns in hell. Take a breath the heat surmounts, your mind wanders, you have your doubts. Brain goes numb, in the heat, body glows, you cling to your seat. It's on my head if I burn, sit next to me and take your turn. Don't blame the flame by which I'm fuelled, one day by fire we'll all be ruled. |

They're always stealing off the land, the Earl has to take his final stand.
Build a device to catch them all, I don't give a damn if they say they're poor. If you get caught there's no going back, it's a man trap. The jaws of his baby tightly snap, it's a man trap. He's old and wicked and he hates the world, he's wicked as sin, his mind is gnarled. He's got plenty but he doesn't care, and to ask for help they wouldn't dare. A wall heath man with his wife to keep, did his duty and stole a sheep. Refused to grovel, he refused to beg, stepped on the trigger and lost his leg. Deported abroad and is long since dead, the gamekeeper's found without his head. His body was torn like tissue paper, a hidden peg-leg found years later. |

You beat us down but we came back, revenge is sweet and we're on the attack.
Who are you, what do you do? You promised us the world then took it away. Slogging 'round the country for a tenner a day, we got got wise, to your idle lies. The missing rung, we all knew. We survived Catch 22. Now we're prepared and that's the key. So we'll survive Catch 23. Organization, a word you've never heard. The cheques you wrote which never cleared. Your big ideas, our biggest fears. Your representatives of your name. And you'll be forgotten as quickly as you came. Now your gone, we'll carry on. |

The poor man he had no dreams, had no vices all he had was himself.
Spent his days walking around, thinking of things to do with his time. It's like a dream when I wake and scream. I'm lost and alone and living in a hellhole. Looked at himself then looked at the world, decided things weren't going too well. Just a man with a sense of justice, would his days of misery never end. Bought a gun disciplined himself, shoot those those bastards right between the eyes. Crime figures fell like dead leaves, the city breathed a sigh of relief. It's not easy when you're making a stand, when it seems that all the world is mad. It's easy to fall by the wayside, but if you act like a sheep you'll get eaten by the wolf. Now the streets are safe for children to play, couples can go walking in the park. The poor man is happy now, an unknown hero and nobody knows his name. |

I can speed in my car down the road.
I don't have to follow the highway code. The laws which bind you don't bother me. I've got diplomatic immunity. I'm really free. They can't touch me. I've got sanctuary. Diplomatic immunity. I can walk down the street with a gun in my hand, to protect myself from violent gangs. Go into Harrods and steal some jewels, store detectives look like fools. I killed a girl once just for fun, then waited for the police to come. They couldn't do a thing, I'm safe inside my wall of red tape. Who is there to hear the call ? And see the injustice of it all. But who is there the hear the call ? And see the injustice of it all. |

Dog tired sleeping on the train.
A couple of hours and we'll be home again. But a big man dressed in blue said, "Hey you lot, we want you." We had a drugs party in 526. The flick knives were all they found, Ross had lots of fun bending down. Stranded in the smoke, get out of that. Wilf he's safe at home stroking his cat. Lumpyjack's fault he wrote the note. Got drunk on the duty free we got on the boat. Lying in a cell really void of time. Offensive weapon, be in court by nine. Standing in a cloud of carbon monoxide. No need to run but a need to hide. The zap was the loudest thing I've ever heard. And I'm just trying to sleep and growing a beard |

Who's he calling .. on the phone ? Counting out cash all alone. What's in the box being wrapped ? Why's his phone being tapped ? Under surveilance every day. Special branch got nothing to say. What was he arrested for ? Selling junk, breaking the law. Addicting kids just looking for fun. The pusher is pulled .. but the damage is done. |

Gotta get rid of these Vietname Blues. Well I just got back from Vietnam. I got addicted to napalm. My teeth have rotted, they're just not there. I was getting paid too much to care. Well I just got back from Vietnam. I got blown to bits by a bomb. My minds gone it's just not there. I was getting paid too much to care. Well I just got back from Vietnam. Although I'm really only half a man. My wife's left, divorce coming through. I got no money what can I do ? |

You want a house and a child but you don't want a man.
You'll live off the state as long as you can. Claim you're equal with your feminist wit. If you are you'd better act like it. With a glass plate in your stomach, everyone will look at you The only woman in the world, to have a womb with a view Men are the evil, women are good. You joined the CND just like you should. Greenham Common the new Babylon. Campaign all you want they'll still drop the bomb. Burn your bra then whine for support. Independence is a thing that can't be taught. Live was busy for the little girl. Then you lost your virginity to the male world. |

In the desert with a bottle of J.D.
The red pipe glows with lines of c. Things are normal but they won't be soon. Hairy monsters in the next room. Frogsheads and midgets going oingoboingo .. Take my hand and we'll explore, the forbidden zone. When you're in your own tree, But don't know if anybodys home. Thugs in lingerie greet you. Bitch queens with tattoos eat you. You haven't got a watch but it's nearly 4. And there's armed police knocking at your door. When you've jumped the fence into the bath we'll understand if you have the last laugh. Just as things seem as they were before, down with the field up with the air conditioner. |

you'll take your last breath. But you don't realise, that the heat can fry your eyes. Down in the Valley of Death .. .. Not a soul can live, because the heat's too much to bear. If you battle in the sun, you've got no chance, it's already won. There's nothing there to be found, 'cept skeletons on the ground. You can stand there and weep, over things that used ot be sheep. Water there is just like gold, people kill for it, I've been told. Melting sorrow, the suffering cry, Hell on earth, what a place to die. |

Suits of black, serene robe,
into your mind they will probe. Christianity it's a pain, financial power, it's their gain. Christianised cannibals, cannibalised christians, christianised cannibals. Holier than thou, men of sin, wicked hearts lurk within. Pointless eyesores being erected, with the Mafia you're connected. Everything's founded on the book, it works like a magnet, it's you they hook. It's a futile cause you're fighting for, spawning hate and death and war. |

I paid enough an' I guess I should. I've gotta get up, I've gotta go, It's two o'clock, I've gotta go, my watch is slow. Faster faster, the race is on, Faster faster, I think I'm gone. I cannot sleep when I'm in this state, my mind is running, accelerate. I'm talking fast, not saying much, you're so close and I want to touch. Increase my intake of nicotine, I've got a small problem if you know what I mean. But you can help me if you can, then I'll prove that I'm still a man. |

Out of my mind on a Saturday night, Nineteen Eighty Four rolling in sight. Radio Bird Man, up above, beautiful baby, save our love. All night killer, blown away, all night killer, blown away.

Take a look at yourself from the other side, and see if it's really you.
The reason for life is living, so do what you gotta do. Catch the fire of inspiration, seek and you shall find. Go on down your own path, don't follow things so blind. Do what you do (but know why you're doing it). Do what you do for fun. Do what you do (but know why you're doing it). You're the only one. Trash and truth are easily mixed, split them with your axe. Burning ambitions fizzle out, don't listen to the facts. They've got power in supply, overload and fuse it. Don't sit at home vegetating .. you've got a brain so use it. Apathy is on the increase, problems are easily shared. Freedom's on the horizon, but I didn't know you cared. Plant the seed of hope and promise, feed it, it will grow. Question all the answers, rock the Status Quo. |

The end of a decade closes in, the oppressed fight back but still can't win.
A blind eye sees more than pain, expressions on heads look so feign. Four men died today, someone's gotta pay. Why did four men die today ? The culprits can't be found, they're hiding underground. Why did four men die today ? Hoboes and underdogs strike a new chord, they're sick and tired of acting bored. Legions of damned citizens try, while all around the rotting die. Concerned committees study and gen, the final word from Number Ten. The worried gasp a sigh and frown as all the walls come crashing down. The end of a decade closes in, the oppressed fight back and still can't win. Doomsday lurks, an ugly figure, who'll be first to pull the trigger. |

Take a look at yourself from the other side, and see if it's really you.

I'm strapped into my bed, I've got electrodes in my head.
My nerves are really bad, it's the best time I've ever had. I'm a sick boy and there's no cure. I'm a sick boy there should be more. But I'm happy the way I am, like a sardine in can. People taking notes, people in white coats. I see school girls everywhere, short skirts and pig-tailed hair. But why must I suffer .. for being a gym slip lover ? |

They're always stealing off the land, the Earl has to take his final stand.
Build a device to catch them all, I don't give a damn if they say they're poor. If you get caught there's no going back, it's a man trap. The jaws of his baby tightly snap, it's a man trap. He's old and wicked and he hates the world, he's wicked as sin, his mind is gnarled. He's got plenty but he doesn't care, and to ask for help they wouldn't dare. A wall heath man with his wife to keep, did his duty and stole a sheep. Refused to grovel, he refused to beg, stepped on the trigger and lost his leg. Deported abroad and is long since dead, the gamekeeper's found without his head. His body was torn like tissue paper, a hidden peg-leg found years later. |

Perpetual torture, from those we love to hate.
It's meant to be, you can't change fate. We got a time bomb .. .. 5-4-3-2-1 go The time will come when we gotta say no. Decide ourselves who's friend or foe. It's in our hands, above your head. Think carefully or you'll be dead. It's happened before, been called a traitor. 'Cos we control .. the detonator. |

Make love to you your eyes are closed,
your body is rotting it's decomposed. Your hair straggled in a spider's web .. you're dead. No remorse .. screw the corpse. Your clothes are in a state of decay, just like you they're thrown away. Your body's filled with lava flies, why oh why did you have to die ? I come and see you every night, unlike my girl you don't put up a fight. I'm close to you, put flowers on your womb .. 'cos I was born in your womb. |

The poor man he had no dreams, had no vices all he had was himself.
Spent his days walking around, thinking of things to do with his time. It's like a dream when I wake and scream. I'm lost and alone and living in a hellhole. Looked at himself then looked at the world, decided things weren't going too well. Just a man with a sense of justice, would his days of misery never end. Bought a gun disciplined himself, shoot those those bastards right between the eyes. Crime figures fell like dead leaves, the city breathed a sigh of relief. It's not easy when you're making a stand, when it seems that all the world is mad. It's easy to fall by the wayside, but if you act like a sheep you'll get eaten by the wolf. Now the streets are safe for children to play, couples can go walking in the park. The poor man is happy now, an unknown hero and nobody knows his name. |

Shivers running down my spine, whose blood I know it's mine ?
I'm a moving target and I can't go home. Chased forever and a day of my choosing my own way. I don't wanna forget the things I've done. I am the hunted .. No-one's hurt now I've escaped no-one killed and no-one raped. But I'm the monster they wanna catch. My kids live alone with a stranger their mother's dead I killed her. A moment's anger and a life of pain. Running scared I know my number, I know no joy, only hunger. I don't want to forget the things I've done. Remorse regret, it's more than anger everywhere I go there's danger. I could take my life but still no wife. Stop and think with my mixed up mind of sanctuary I can find. Another night like this and I think I'll die. How can I prove my innocence when this country's run by ignorants .. as blind and deaf as a newborn child ? |

We'll lead you into victory, you hear the generals say.
Never look behind you, we're with you all the way. Go to bed early, conserve your energy, tomorrow we'll be fighting with our enemy. Polish your boots, clean your gun, killing those bastards will be a lot of fun. Take no prisoners, kill them all. Start to march when you hear the call. Britain needs you, Britain needs you .. Britain needs you to die for her. Marching into victory, marching in the mud. Fighting for freedom, fighting in th eblood. There's dead bodies all around, you're told to carry on. Death is not right, war cannot be won. March along you see a flash, fall to the ground and make a splash. You awake you're lying in the bed, eyes are shut you think you're dead. Lost your arm, you've lost your leg, lost you're job, you'll have to beg. You'll get loads of sympathy, a picture in the Evening Post. But where were the generals when you needed them most ? |

You beat us down but we came back, revenge is sweet and we're on the attack.
Who are you, what do you do? You promised us the world then took it away. Slogging 'round the country for a tenner a day, we got got wise, to your idle lies. The missing rung, we all knew. We survived Catch 22. Now we're prepared and that's the key. So we'll survive Catch 23. Organization, a word you've never heard. The cheques you wrote which never cleared. Your big ideas, our biggest fears. Your representatives of your name. And you'll be forgotten as quickly as you came. Now your gone, we'll carry on. |

Smoke and fire are burning bright, we'll set the tinderbox alight.
Rising from the ashes the phoenix lives, life and death the red flame gives. Give me fire, on which I feed, give me fire, 'cus it's a need. Real fine, I can tell, real fine really burns in hell. Take a breath the heat surmounts, your mind wanders, you have your doubts. Brain goes numb, in the heat, body glows, you cling to your seat. It's on my head if I burn, sit next to me and take your turn. Don't blame the flame by which I'm fuelled, one day by fire we'll all be ruled. |

The memory lingers on when you were the same as us.
Three months old a child, still you lived off love and fuss. City baby, city baby, city baby attacked by rats. Residing in a squalid place, it can't be too much fun. Your brain is getting eaten away by the rat living in your skull. A mutant at the age of one, a human rodent cabbage. It's hard to think a tiny thing can do that much damage. |

No survivors in this game of hate, we all get changed in a certain way.
Our ideals changed by mortar, there isn't a person who doesn't pay. No survivors, burst the bubble. No survivors, too much trouble. No survivors, your just a pawn. No survivors, don't conform. Boys mature to men in weeks, while rivals stay on the boil. The time is right, the 'real' cowards, we all suffer at this toil. So patriots who wear your flag, can enlist and die together. I'll stay at home, protect MY world, do two years and wear a white feather. The fields in France are full of heroes, now only poppies remain. Their colour red, their number many, and still not achieved their aim. |

You're like a kind of religion,
I see you each night on television. I can't remember all your names, I love you running through my veins. Alcohol, oh alcohol, I love you in my brains. Acohol, oh alcohol, I never want you again. I come and see you every night, take out my purse and i'll buy you a pint . Would you like another ? No thanks, tonight i'm wearing incontinence pants. |

I met you at a party, it was 10 pm.
I was outside being sick so I called inside again. I opened another bottle, but that made 'em feel worse. I was sick for the second time, it made me shout and curse. The music played so loud it made my ears pop. When I went dancing, down at the Bell End Bop. They were doing it on the tables, they were doing it on the chairs. They were doing it on the dance floor, they were doing it upstairs. But the police came and raided the place, said the music was too loud. I didn't want to get recognized so I mingled with the crowd. There were people dressed as Batman, they really looked a mess. Then to my amazement I found it was a fancy dress. A young girl came up to me she was tall and slim, had oranges down her bra said she was Nell Gwyn. There's only one place where you can rock. Come on, let's go dancing, down at the Bell End Bop. |
