| [00:-1.00] |
I was surprised,I was happy for a day in 1975 |
| [00:16.07] |
I was puzzled by a dream, it stayed with me all day in 1995 |
| [00:22.01] |
|
| [00:29.38] |
My brother had confessed he was gay |
| [00:31.84] |
|
| [00:35.06] |
It took the heat off me for a while |
| [00:39.81] |
He stood up with a sailor friend |
| [00:42.51] |
Made it known upon my sisters wedding day |
| [00:48.44] |
|
| [01:00.80] |
I got married in a rush to save a kid from being deported |
| [01:06.64] |
Now she's in love |
| [01:09.27] |
|
| [01:10.77] |
I was so touched, I was moved to kick the crutches |
| [01:16.84] |
From my crippled friend |
| [01:19.40] |
|
| [01:20.15] |
She was not impressed cause I cured her on the Sabbath |
| [01:27.16] |
I went to confess |
| [01:29.42] |
|
| [01:30.35] |
When she saw the funny side, we introduced my child bride |
| [01:38.98] |
To whisky and gin |
| [01:40.35] |
To whisky and gin |
| [01:41.92] |
|
| [01:52.01] |
The priest in the booth had a photographic memory |
| [01:57.48] |
For all he had heard |
| [02:00.48] |
And he took all of my sins and he wrote a pocket novel called |
| [02:08.57] |
The State I Am In |
| [02:10.95] |
And so I gave myself to God |
| [02:13.82] |
There was a pregnant pause before he said ok |
| [02:19.71] |
|
| [02:21.15] |
Now I spend my day turning tables round In Marks & Spencer's |
| [02:27.37] |
They don't seem to mind |
| [02:33.12] |
|
| [02:35.20] |
I gave myself to sin |
| [02:37.20] |
I gave myself to Providence |
| [02:38.70] |
And I've been there and back again |
| [02:42.95] |
|
| [02:44.00] |
The state that I am in |
| [02:45.81] |
|
| [02:48.17] |
I gave myself to sin |
| [02:49.42] |
|
| [02:50.42] |
I gave myself to Providence |
| [02:54.39] |
And I've been there and back again |
| [02:57.17] |
The state that I am in |
| [03:01.45] |
|
| [03:08.38] |
Oh love of mine, would you condescend to help me |
| [03:12.35] |
|
| [03:13.91] |
Cause I'm stupid and blind |
| [03:15.35] |
|
| [03:17.55] |
Oh and desperation is the Devil's work, it is the folly of a boy's empty mind |
| [03:25.73] |
|
| [03:28.06] |
Now I'm feeling dangerous, riding on city buses for a hobby is sad |
| [03:35.09] |
|
| [03:37.66] |
Why don't you lead me to a living end |
| [03:40.77] |
I promised that I'd entertain my crippled friend |
| [03:45.41] |
|
| [03:47.29] |
My crippled friend |
| [03:48.85] |
|
| [03:51.66] |
I gave myself to sin |
| [03:53.67] |
I gave myself to Providence |
| [03:57.07] |
And I've been there and back again |
| [04:00.51] |
The state that I am in |
| [04:02.58] |
|
| [04:04.82] |
I gave myself to sin |
| [04:06.81] |
I gave myself to Providence |
| [04:09.31] |
|
| [04:09.93] |
And I've been there and back again |
| [04:12.81] |
|
| [04:13.43] |
The state that I am in |
| [04:15.57] |
|
| [04:17.95] |
I gave myself to sin |
| [04:19.88] |
I gave myself to Providence |
| [04:22.07] |
|
| [04:23.01] |
And I've been there and back again |
| [04:26.13] |
|
| [04:26.63] |
The state that I am in |
| [04:28.69] |
|
| [04:31.00] |
I gave myself to sin |
| [04:32.90] |
I gave myself to Providence |
| [04:36.35] |
And I've been there and back again |
| [04:39.90] |
The state that I am in |
| [04:44.28] |
I gave myself to sin |
| [04:46.26] |
And I've been there and back again |
| [04:51.17] |
|
| [04:51.92] |
Oh yeah |
