Hello
hold my hand
take me down
I wanna pray to god
don't you understand
I was still just a kid
there were a hundred like me
I followed the naked body
23 years is a mighty long time
when the world is turning and everythings mine
The naked body followed me
Next! Next...
Watch the news
turn it off
down the road
to the edge of the lot
me. I really would have liked a little touch, a tenderness
I went to sea I tried to swim
Jonah 'n' his whale said you better come in
Maybe a word, just a smile
some instant happiness
But, no, no. Next!
I went to Mars,
I was looking for a war
he said boy don't you know the score
I'm totally wired
I'm totally wired
love it hate it
it's all the same
when your boat comes in
you'll feel no pain
I'm totally wired
I'm totally wired
Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhh
I-I am a girl who's a lonely goatherd
Lay, yodelay, yodelay-e-oo
Down is the curse of the lonely goatherd?
Lay, yodelay, yodel-oo
I am a girl who's a lonely goatherd
Lay, yodelay, yodelay, yodelay, yodelay, yodelay, lay, lay, lay, lay,
lay ...
Down is the curse of the lonely goatherd?
Lay, yodelay, yodel-oo
Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhh
Buying, selling anything we can
your pound of flesh is cooking in the pan
Let's merry-go, merry-go, merry-go-round. Whoo hoo hoo!
Terrible spats?? Contra priests
all playing bugger by the dead man's teeth
Let's merry-go, merry-go, merry-go-round. Whoo hoo hoo!
