|
You're always on your own, sitting on those seaside chairs on your own , everybody there just passes you by |
|
Nobody seems to care if you flash your underwear , no, I don't tell no lie |
|
Your vested days are done now you know you're on the run, oh lady why why? |
|
Your white and powdered face, you need some holy gr ace to pull yourself right back again |
|
Chorus: |
|
Eastbourne Ladies with your hair done up so nice |
|
Eastbourne Ladies with your tea and lemon ice, lemon ice. |
|
I think you need something new but you don't know just what to do , croquet on the lawn yet again |
|
You smile at passing boys, you can't offer any joys, you don't understand young men |
|
Got your money in the bank, money in the bank, now let's be frank, I want more than ten thousands pounds |
|
I want everything you've got, I want the lot, give me give me give me give me all you got, oh help me, I need some, I'm so poor now |
|
Chorus |
|
So I wander round the town looking into rooms for you up and down , I see you everywhere |
|
I believe I have choice, I believe I made my choice, come here old lady ?? |
|
Fifty years upon the beach, you should be tanned by now, you're out of reach, I hope I don't bring you down |
|
Everything special about you, your pearls, your jewels and your money too , oh do you wear a crown when you go to bed now? |
|
Chorus |
|
[last verse not on cd, thanks to Rob Olver for that info]: |
|
So now the day is done, the sun disappears and it starts to run |
|
Oh the darkness creeps around |
|
Moonlight sings and moonlight dreams, nothing to see, you make me ?? |
|
As I watch you tottering round this town |
|
Nobody there, nobody there to care, you're ??, who really cares |
|
I'll hold you tight maybe, maybe for a year |
|
When the day, the day is done, all my heart it starts to run |
|
Overflows on your plate, you'd better eat it all, eat it, eat it, eat it |
|
Chorus |
