The Loved Ones |
| Don’t get smart or sarcastic |
| He snaps back just like elastic |
| Spare us the theatrics and the verbal gymnastics |
| We break wise guys just like matchsticks |
| What would the loved ones say |
| (Your pride and joy is all blown up) |
| What would the loved ones say |
| (The bride and boy are barely grown up) |
| You’re not my particular poison |
| I’ve got nothing against you myself |
| You could have been a danger to the boys and girls |
| Now you’re a danger to yourself |
| Oh what would the loved ones say |
| What would the loved ones say |
| Oh what would the loved ones say |
| What would the loved ones say |
| The ugly little dreams run round your bed |
| The ugly little scenes you get the needle and no thread |
| They stitched you up this time |
| They say you’ll do |
| They bitch about your pretty face turning ugly on you |
| The butcher the baker and the baseline maker |
| Say you can leave her I can take her |
| You spend your whole life like a minute or two later |
| One day its going to end sooner than greater |
| What would the loved ones say |
| (He'll be remembered young and pretty) |
| What would the loved ones say |
| (Now he’s a hit in every city) |
| Now there’s a name we’ll never forget |
| There’s one born every minute or two |
| Don’t pin a medal on me yet |
| They might be waiting for you |
| Oh what would the loved ones say |
| What would the loved ones say |
| Oh what would the loved ones say |
| What would the loved ones say |
