[00:04.050] Standing in the dock at Southampton
[00:07.550] Trying to get to Holland or France
[00:11.050] The man in the mac said, "You've got to go back."
[00:14.080] You know they didn't even give us a chance
[00:16.680] Christ you know it ain't easy
[00:20.150] You know how hard it can be
[00:24.220] The way things are going
[00:27.340] They're gonna crucify me
[00:32.470] Finally made the plane to Paris
[00:36.040] Honey mooning down by the Seine
[00:39.170] Peter Brown called to say
[00:40.750] "You can make it OK
[00:42.470] You can get married in Gibraltar, near Spain"
[00:45.270] Christ you know it ain't easy
[00:48.590] You know how hard it can be
[00:52.590] The way things are going
[00:55.670] They're gonna crucify me
[01:00.330] Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton
[01:04.240] Talking in our beds for a week
[01:07.710] The newspapers said, "Say what you doing in bed?"
[01:10.590] I said, "We're only trying to get us some peace"
[01:13.310] Christ you know it ain't easy
[01:16.760] You know how hard it can be
[01:20.760] The way things are going
[01:23.840] They're gonna crucify me
[01:28.760] Saving up your money for a rainy day
[01:32.400] Giving all your clothes to charity
[01:35.930] Last night the wife said
[01:37.770] "Oh boy, when you're dead “
[01:39.540] You don't take nothing with you
[01:40.980] But your soul - think!"
[01:44.050] Made a lightning trip to Vienna
[01:47.730] Eating chocolate cake in a bag
[01:51.170] The newspapers said, "She's gone to his head,
[01:54.550] They look just like two gurus in drag"
[01:56.790] Christ you know it ain't easy
[02:00.230] You know how hard it can be
[02:04.050] The way things are going
[02:07.460] They're gonna crucify me
[02:12.260] Caught an early plane back to London
[02:15.890] Fifty acorns tied in a sack
[02:19.490] The men from the press said, "We wish you success,
[02:22.950] It's good to have the both of you back
[02:25.090] Christ you know it ain't easy
[02:28.620] You know how hard it can be
[02:32.780] The way things are going
[02:35.920] They're gonna crucify me
