| I was sitting in Hell’s Kitchen
|
| Contemplating murder
|
| Contemplating murder
|
| Contemplating the great escape
|
| When you walked in looking like crap
|
| But satisfied
|
| I swear that you looked satisfied
|
| And I hated you for that
|
| Well, someone once said
|
| If you never look back then you’ll never regret nothing
|
| Oh but nothing has got a way of sneaking up
|
| Well, I know you did not ask
|
| But I’ve got some comfort to offer
|
| Nothing very good or bad ever lasts
|
| Well, the bum that slipped
|
| Underneath the fridge
|
| Like a phantom card
|
| We call him happiness
|
| And oh that happiness
|
| Is a miserable son of a bitch
|
| Now the Kitchen’s getting crowded
|
| And the band is really loud
|
| And there’s a fat man saying he’s my friend
|
| Well, hey man if you’re my friend
|
| Will you spot me a drink?
|
| And the couple in the corner
|
| They’re the reason why I hate rock and roll
|
| 'Cause rock and roll is dead, it’s dead, it’s dead
|
| Well, I know you did not ask
|
| But I’ve got some comfort to offer
|
| Nothing very good or bad ever lasts |
