Amsterdam |
You and me got the whole day off |
Take a trip to Vincent Van Gogh |
But the line went halfway round the block |
And we’re looking for a place to rest |
Every seat in every bar was set |
So we turned back to The Grand Hotel |
And the rain came hard |
A million people on a protest march |
Every choice, every path was mistaken |
You and me got the whole thing sussed |
Gray man is shadowing us |
Wild conspiracies turn to dust |
Hear the sound of cathedral bells |
Cash ringing at the gates of Hell |
And fairground hooligans push and swell |
They’re the darkest days of a free man |
Lying in the streets of Amsterdam |
Nearly fell underneath the tram |
But I picked myself up |
Every temptation and device |
All the diamonds and the spice |
I would give anything for the sight |
Of an honest man (Hey) |
Eyes swim in emptiness |
I was looking at a hotel guest |
He blew me a big sarcastic kiss |
And the Lord walked in |
With a monocle and lips so thin |
Saw the barman wink as he poured his brandy |
They’re the darkest days of a free man |
Lying in the streets of Amsterdam |
Nearly fell underneath the tram |
But I picked myself up |
Every temptation up in lights |
All the diamonds and the spice |
Could take profit from the vice |
Of another man |
Amsterdam |
Cold, cold |
Cold, cold |
You belong |
