Couldn't get ahead | |
I just couldn't get ahead | |
Come out of pub, the shop is closed | |
Come out of pub, harry wants to know | |
When the next bus is | |
I said five or ten minutes | |
I had my change in my hands | |
The bus flashes past. | |
My hands are caught | |
Couldn't get ahead. i just couldn't get ahead. | |
In a week, earned money for month | |
Got all my jobs done | |
My eyelids were sick of it | |
Gist was i could sleep for a day? | |
But bad bills have no respect for a decent man's rest | |
Flopping on the doorstep | |
Outlined in color red | |
Couldn't get ahead. just couldn't get ahead. | |
On an asiatic plane with wings not of the grain | |
Toilet queue was endless | |
Couldn't get a beer | |
The hostesses were muslims | |
When i get in toilet, | |
Light flashes: "return to seat." | |
I feared withdrawal | |
And i feared beer was making sludge of my head. | |
Couldn't get ahead. just couldn't get ahead. | |
Now my problems are solved | |
It's a remedy of old | |
I pretend i'm blind you see | |
Put on some armani clothes | |
And act like et | |
Where i'm at is a cabbage patch, | |
No longer strewn with weeds | |
Have a ghandi at me | |
Colour mags wish me well | |
No more, no get ahead. | |
Couldn't get ahead. just couldn't get ahead. |
