Swamp Thing

I can already hear your tune

Calling me across the room

When the world and his wife are on my back again

Not enough pleasure, too much pain

When the world is too much with me

Please leave, just go away

I lose my mind completely

Please leave, just go now

In the side street something's moving

Look around, look around

All around you walls are tumbling down

Stop staring at the ground

I can practically see your face

And another revolutionary falls from grace

Hear the thunder in your brain

Not enough sunshine, too much rain

When the light of life has gone

No change for the meter

And then the king of spivs will come

Selling blood by the litre

When nothing's sacred anymore

When the demon's knocking on your door

You'll still be staring down at the floor

Not too many hours from this hour

So long

The storm comes

Or is it just another shower?

Picking up the pieces

Half alive in a nine-to-five, vacant eyes

Is it any wonder?

Primal scream at the TV screen, close your eyes

Now the world is too much with me

Please leave, just go away

Before I lose my mind completely

Just leave, please go now

Now nothing's sacred anymore

When the demon's breaking down your door

You'll still be staring down at the floor

Not too many hours from this hour

So long

The storm comes

Or is it just another shower?

Not too many hours from this hour

So long

Now the storm has come

Or is it just another shower?

Or is it just another shower?

Or is it just another shower?

Now the rain has come

Or is it just another shower?

Picking up the pieces

Half alive in a nine-to-five, vacant eyes
