| Ode to the guy read about in the news
|
| Born by mistake he was born to lose
|
| Never had much luck
|
| With the pounds and the pence
|
| Blamed everybody else
|
| He said he never had a chance
|
| Ship on the waves hole in my side
|
| One foot in the grave and it’s just my size
|
| 21st century crime in the city
|
| And you’re looking guilty as hell
|
| Although you didn’t do it You know you can’t prove it Now maybe it’s time to excel
|
| I’m alright jack got my hand on my stack
|
| And defences to make you think twice
|
| All the gold in my walls are in hideaway halls
|
| To cancel the chance of reprise
|
| You’re king and your queens
|
| And their widow machine
|
| Are taking the share of your sons
|
| Then a note through the post
|
| And the smell of a ghost
|
| And apologise to everyone
|
| Their courageous attempt is all money well spent
|
| But their gravestones they don’t grow on trees
|
| Second hand ones come cheap
|
| Door to door while you sleep
|
| But with no money back guarantees |
