> MY LIFE IS AN ENDLESS SUCCESSION OF PEOPLE SAYING GOODBYE

> My life is an endless succession of people saying goodbye (x2)
> And what's left for me?
> What's left for me?
> At one time the future
> It stretched out before me
> But now it stretches behind
> And all of the best things in life
> All behind glass
> Money, Jewellery, Flesh
> And what's left for me?
> What's left for me?

> TEENAGE DAD ON HIS ESTATE

> You chase in the rat race
> And you always feel so hollow
> You marry because it's expected of you
> And it only makes you feel more lonely

> But you still look down on the
> Teenage dad on
> On his estate
> He's happy, so leave him alone
> With his baby and his modest home
> He's happy, so leave him alone
> With his Jensen Interceptor
> It's just a runaround

> You defer to the views of the television news
> Let someone do your thinking for you
> And you still buy a daily newspaper
> And you find everything here but the news

> And you still look down on the
> Teenage dad on
> On his estate
> He's happy, so leave him alone
> With his baby and his modest home
> He's happy, so leave him alone
> With his Jensen Interceptor
> It's just a runaround

> You become your parent's parent - and you love them
> But you can't help feeling used

> Because he's poor, but he's happier than you

> They're all laughing at you

> You're a dipper, slider, cart-horse provider
> Nobody cares about you
> Just as long as you're out there bringing it in
> Despising the grin on the face of the boy with the methadone

> Oh, with his methadone
> He's happy, so leave him alone
> Oh, with his methadone
> He's happy, so leave him alone

> *END*
