I was surprised, I was happy for a day in 1975
I was puzzled by a dream, stayed with me all day in 1995 My brother had confessed that he was gay It took the heat off me for a while He stood up with a sailor friend Made it known upon my sisters wedding day I got married in a rush to save a kid from being deported Now she's in love I was so touched, I was moved to kick the crutches From my crippled friend She was not impressed that I cured her on the Sabbath So I went to confess When she saw the funny side, we introduced my child bride To whisky and gin The priest in the booth had a photographic memory For all he had heard He took all of my sins and he wrote a pocket novel called "The State I Am In" So I gave myself to God There was a pregnant pause before he said ok Now I spend my day turning tables round In Marks & Spencer's They don't seem to mind I gave myself to sin And I've been there and back again I gave myself to Providence The state that I am in Oh love of mine, would you condescend to help me I am stupid and blind Desperation is the Devil's work, it is the folly of a boys empty mind Now I'm feeling dangerous, riding on city buses for a hobby is sad Lead me to a living end I promised that I'd entertain my crippled friend My crippled friend |

Working the village shop
Putting a poster up Dreaming of anything Dreaming of the time when you are free from all the trouble you're in In the mud, on your knees Trying hard not to please Anyone, all the time Being a rebel's fine But you go all the way to being brutal You will have a boy tonight You will have a boy tonight On the first bus out of town On the first bus out of town Let's see your kit for games All the girls look the same You are challenging style for running miles You're running miles in some boys jumper Boo to the business world! You know a girl who's tax free on her back and making Plenty cash While you are working for the joy of giving You will have a boy tonight You will have a boy tonight And you hope that she will see And you hope that she will see You will have a boy tonight Or maybe you will have a girl tonight And you hope that she will see And you hope that she will see You are in two minds Tossing a coin to decide whether you should tell your mum About a dose of thrush you got while you were licking railings But you read in a book That you got free in Boots There are lotions, there are potions You can take to hide your shame from all those prying eyes Lazy Jane, all the time Painting lines You are sleeping at bus stops Wondering how you got your name And what you're going to do about it You will have a boy tonight You will have a boy tonight And you hope that she will see And you hope that she will see |

There's a portrait
In a back room Which I keep for days upon Which I relent And gaze for hours on The muscle, skin and bone of some Imaginary friend. So how about it? Show me please how I Will look in twenty years And let me please Interpret history In every line and scar That's painted there in front of me. It doesn't matter what I'm thinking What I tell myself to do I'll end up calling. I stay in to defrost the fridge Now the kid has gone to bed A feeling of dread At least when she's around The trouble's there It's worse to wake up with her Falling round the room. Listen Johnny, you're like a mother To the girl you've fallen for, And you're still falling Listen Johnny, you're like a mother To the girl you've fallen for, And you're still falling And if they come tonight You'll roll up tight And take whatever's coming to you next |
