|
They woke to grey English morning |
|
And to a strange honeymoon |
|
The girl who gave him all her love |
|
And the man who said it still wouldn't do |
|
His parents always worked hard |
|
Never went to bed late |
|
And though they were God's own people |
|
They're still the ones he loves to hate |
|
He never wanted to |
|
Suffer this fate |
|
All the girls have fallen for |
|
The man they love to hate |
|
The city is an animal |
|
It snores and by day it roars |
|
And though he loved to hate it |
|
He couldn't live without it's flaws |
|
With pastel curtains moaning |
|
At a thousand harsh words - then hush |
|
The girl she wanted to leave |
|
Because she loved the man too much |
|
He never wanted to |
|
Suffer this fate |
|
All the girls have fallen for |
|
The man they love to hate |
|
His father was a fighter |
|
And he practised on his son |
|
His mother was just some furniture |
|
Who'd lost the will to run |
|
The girl she wrote him a farewell note |
|
And though he probably didn't care too much |
|
The girl she finally left him |
|
Because she loved the man too much |
