Orpheus

Well, I'm back to make your face

So it smiles once again

And harpoon you like a whale

With a bent and rusty nail

If your husband knew, he'd say

That you're living in sin

Well, if grinnin' is a sin

That's the reason I'm here

Back with you, Mrs Blear

Sleep on, dear

Deep and easy, our night man is here

I'll steal your dreams for my shiny gold chain

And you'll wake with your eyes full of rain

Finding I've disappeared

I don't think of yesterday

Merely drum out the sound

But forgetting you was hard

That's why I'm back in town

And you had a loveless week

And the world's let you down

But I'll make it up somehow

There are ways, Mrs Brown

That's why I'm back in town

Sleep on, dear

For the night wouldn't dare interfere

And the ghosts of my cigarette play

On the ceiling, and time drifts away

With the burden it bears

Remember me

I've already forgotten you

And make your beds for me

For the things we ought not to do

Drive us all

'Round the bend
