[00:24.36]From way far across the sea
[00:26.01]Came an Eritrean maiden she
[00:28.19]Had a one-track mind and eyes for me
[00:30.32]Half blinded in a war
[00:32.14]
[00:32.72]With a pale, young Anglican
[00:34.62]Who said he'd help her all he can
[00:36.78]Showed her Jesus and his little unholy friend
[00:41.08]She had no mind to please him
[00:43.38]Just say 'ta-ra' and leave him behind
[00:47.08]
[00:47.79]A little boy in a stairwell who
[00:49.45]Says 'I hate people like you'
[00:51.46]I got matchsticks and cable TV
[00:53.55]Half of less than 50P
[00:55.76]We all clambered over the balcony
[00:57.68]Banging on the window, waking Steve
[00:59.76]Bringing with the true love his unholy friend
[01:03.85]Singing, 'If you really need it
[01:06.36]You just won't leave it behind'
[01:09.53]
[01:11.94]So baby please kill me
[01:14.01]Oh baby don't kill me
[01:16.20]But don't bring that ghost 'round to my door
[01:18.48]I don't want to see him anymore
[01:20.22]Please kill me
[01:21.77]Oh baby don't kill me
[01:23.58]Just don't bang on about yesterday
[01:26.38]You know I wouldn't know about that anyway
[01:28.49]
[01:28.76]Monkey asked to the mouse before
[01:30.38]If she loved anybody more than he
[01:34.70]Turns you into stone
[01:36.29]Now I'm reversing down the lonely street
[01:38.81]Cheap hotel where I can meet the past
[01:41.50]Pay it off and keep it sweet
[01:44.12]It's sweet and it's nothing, no
[01:47.37]It's just like nothing at all
[01:50.66]You know I've seen you there
[01:52.53]How could help but stare?
[01:54.88]It rips the heart out of your baby
[01:57.61]I've taken too far too much to see or think or touch what's real
[02:02.30]Stranded on this street that paved my only way home
[02:07.90]If you really need it all
[02:10.20]You just won't leave it behind
[02:13.53]
[02:15.39]Oh please kill me
[02:17.30]Oh no don't kill me
[02:20.04]Don't bring that ghost 'round to my door
[02:21.84]I don't want to see him anymore
[02:23.72]Please kill me
[02:25.38]Oh no don't kill me
[02:27.94]Don't go on about yesterday
[02:29.83]You know I wouldn't know about that anyway
[02:31.76]Oh no
[02:35.65]
