You're Gone |
I turned on a T.V. station and |
Lip-read with the sound turned down |
It was Pro-Celeb mouth-to-mouth resuscitation |
With Esther Rantzen |
Playing the one who’s drowned |
In a room next door a couple is fighting |
But isn’t that just one of love’s charms |
When moods change as fast as lightning |
And fifteen minutes later you’re |
Lying in each other’s arms |
And you’re gone |
They say that it’s better to have loved and lost |
Than never to have loved at all |
But if you sit down and count the cost of |
All those losses |
There’s no profit at all |
This city gets crazy at Christmas |
Glitter guards the crucifix all over the place |
Its head gets too big for its body |
And its mouth gets |
Too big for its face |
And you’re gone |
Never throw away an old newspaper |
Everyday’s rich with its current accounts |
Prince visits Philippines and parliament debates it |
Back page, column five |
Somebody’s wedding’s announced |
Sunday night’s the night for loving |
And squeezing out the weekend’s last drops |
Sunday night’s the night for forgiving |
Maybe that’s why |
They shut the shops |
And you’re gone |
One day you wake up |
And all the pain you’ve given out gets returned |
But I’m not sorry now |
I’ve payed for what I’ve learned |
And you’re gone |
I turned on a T.V. station and |
Lip-read with the sound turned down |
It was the Church of Christ playing the Price Is Right |
Where everybody starves |
While Leslie Crowther counts |
