A World Full Of People
|
|
Why can't I be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Oh why can't I be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Oh why is the world filled with people
It makes for a painful life
You'll disappoint me if you don't disappoint me
Come and dance with the tip of my knife
Why is the night filled with laughter
At expense of the sickest of jokes
While the world is a blot and it's cistern's fill up
On the dross and the shit we call folks
Why can't I be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Why can't I be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Oh why is the world filled with the people
They snear and they snide and they moan
And the way I am now it seems I am one of them
Having grudges of my own
And why is this street a-crawling with cockroaches
Insects with two arms, two legs
Leaving their stink and their filth and their debris
I'll break all their faces like eggs
Why can't I be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Why can't I be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Why can't I be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Why can't I be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Oh why is the world filled with people
A-choking the air with their breath
Grunting like hogs in the sludge and the sewerage
Cringing from wonderful death
Oh why do my ears have to ring with their bantering
Bitching and ignorant words
Giving me aches with pathetic opinion
People, it's fact, are insufferable turds
Why can't I be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Why can't I be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Oh why can't I be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Oh why can't I be on my own
Just me and the world alone
And I can't bear the little creeps
That tell me they hate my hair
They're always incredibly ugly
If they dropped dead tomorrow I wouldn't care
They feel that they have to comment
Have to put up with their penneth-worth
They're sick, hypocritical, mincing, unwitty
Not worth a spit in the dirt
They're not worth a spit in the dirt
They're not worth a spit in the dirt
Oh why can't I be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Oh why can't I be on my own
Just me and the world alone

Surabaya Johnny
|
|
I was only a child when I met you.
You came from the Burma Lagoon.
You said, "Would you like a bit of travel?"
You promised me all but the moon.
I asked you what you did for a living.
And you swore, God's my witness, to me.
That you worked for the railroad people,
And would never ever follow the sea.
You said a lot, Johnny.
Not a word was true, Johnny.
You betrayed me, Johnny
The moment we met.
I hate your guts Johnny.
Don't stand there grinning
Take that cigarette out of your mouth, you pig.
Surabaya Johnny,
Why did you treat me so wrong?
Surabaya, Johnny,
My God, and I do love you so.
Surabaya, Johnny,
Why am I feeling so low?
You have no heart, Johnny.
And I do love you so.
At first, it was always Sunday,
As long as I pleased you at night.
But only a few weeks later,
Not a thing I did was right.
Up and down we tramped through the Punjab,
The river along to the sea.
But now when I look in the mirror,
There's a broken face that I see.
You wanted no love, Johnny.
You wanted the loot, Johnny.
But your lips, Johnny,
I could never forget.
You asked for everything, Johnny,
I gave you more, Johnny.
Take that cigarette out of your mouth, you shit
Surabaya, Johnny.
Why did treat me so bad?
Surabaya, Johnny,
My God, and I love you so.
Surabaya, Johnny.
Why am I feeling so low?
You have no heart, Johnny,
And I do love you so.
I wish I had paid more attention
To that nickname of yours and the rest.
All along that bloody awful coastline,
You have been a notorious guest.
In a sixpence-a-night bed one morning,
I will wake to the thunder of the sea.
And your ship will be leaving the harbour,
And you won't even wave to me.
You have no heart, Johnny!
You're a bastard, Johnny!
Why did you leave me?
Can you tell me that?
I love you more, Johnny,
Than the first night, Johnny.
Take that fucking cigarette out of your mouth, you shit.
Surabaya, Johnny.
Why did you treat me so wrong?
Surabaya, Johnny,
My God, and I do love you so.
Surabaya, Johnny.
Why am I feeling so low?
'Cos you have no heart, Johnny.
And I do love you so.

Broken Hearted And Beautiful
|
|
Waves break over the shore, her heart breaks over him
Fickle love, faded fantasies, sweet dreams turning sour within
She touching 44 and he not so sweet 16
And though she loved him more it seemed this love had never, ever been
Oh, you know your still beautiful
(x3)
Empty bottles on the shelf as time came to pass
(on the shelf your lonely heart)
She thought she'd find his angel face in the bottom of a whiskey glass
(thinking of him, fall apart)
Could've been his mother but she hoped she'd be his lover just for a little while
Freshened up he make-up, sighed, and tried to welcome middle age with a friendly smile
She leans to tattoo him with one long last kiss
Gee I never knew love could be like this
The smell of cheap Gin laced with midnight cologne
The man on the T.V. calls Kathy, Kathy come home
Yeah, Kathy come home
Waves break over the shore her heart broke over him
(the waves take your breaking heart)
She threw her memories to the sea and now it's just as if he'd never, ever been
(tides bring a brand new start)
Never, ever been
Letters and photographs, the tide has taken them far away, far away
She still looking beautiful and who needs him anyway? Anyway.
Oh, you know your still beautiful
Let the waves take your breaking heart
(x3)
Your breaking heart
Your breaking heart
