The Drunk and Disorderly |
| Down in the gutter of my life story |
| I`m lying in a bed with a dream playing in my head |
| Spitting blood into a test tube |
| I used to be half a man I used to be useful |
| I walk with the demons and the devils |
| Shadowboxing the ghosts of my reflection in windows |
| All the pigeons and the statues |
| Are staring down at me |
| At the drunk and the disorderly |
| Paper bag bottles in the wardrobe |
| Stealing from the shops where I once bought my hope |
| All wrapped up in a plastic bag |
| Lying still while the human race step over the rags |
| I`ll name the names in my diatribe |
| Posthumously posted on my website |
| Milkmen and taxi drivers |
| Are last men on the street |
| And the drunk and the disorderly |
| Who am I, who are you |
| Who is the god that we how down to |
| Who are we, who are they |
| Who is the master, who is the slave |
| I stepped out of the present tense |
| I cut the umbilical chord of reality |
| I don`t know where this really is |
| Or where all this illusion really begins |
| I keep an old business card inside my shoes |
| An anonymous connection to the life I once used |
| Curtains moving in the council houses |
| On the grey estates |
| Of the drunk and the disorderly |
| Who am I, who are you |
| Who is the god that we bow down to |
| Who are we, who are they |
| Who is the master, who is the slave |
| I am powerless |
| There is a greater power |
| As I understand it |
| Within myself |
| I`m ready for changing |
| I`m ready to be changed |
| Hear my voice |
| Call and be called |
| I know where the bodies have been buried |
| I know things only the dead should know |
| All above me |
| All around me |
| Within and without |
| Are the drunk and the disorderly |
| The drunk and the disorderly |
