It Wasn't Me |
It wasn’t me who wrote the epitaph |
I only burned the old girl’s photograph |
And threw the kitten in the fire, see |
You ask me your father he’ll remember mee |
It was so fantastic, he burned like a matchstick |
You know I’m sorry for what I’ve done |
I wasn’t me who wrote to Gideon |
I only ate the homing pigeon |
And ordered taxis in the early hours |
And sent a wreath of withered flowers |
I broke both her heels, that was quite a deal |
I’ve said I’m sorry for having fun |
Chorus: Now you say I’m responsible for killing them |
I say it was god — He was willing them |
It wasn’t me who lit the kerosene |
I only polished the floor with vaseline |
And asked the doctor not to come around |
And hid her savings in the lost and found |
It was all electric when her cuts went septic |
I then apologized again |
It wasn’t only me who blew their brains |
I certainly admit to putting chains |
Around their necks so they couldn’t move |
But there were others being quite crude |
That was quite a gang waiting for the bang |
I only take the blame for lighting the fuse |
Chorus: Now you say I’m responsible for killing them |
I say it was god — He was willing them |
It wasn’t me who put your Ma away |
It wasn’t me who put your Pa away |
It wasn’t me who stole their plastic teeth |
It wasn’t me who caused this awful grief |
I did it all in jest, this I must confess |
Anything i did was for the best |
Chorus: Now you say I’m responsible for killing them |
I say it was god — He was willing them |
