94ssd:
I have left my pretty Saro, and I quit my mother too
I have started out to ramble this country on through
And when I get tired, I will set down and weep
And I'll think of my little darling wherever I sleep

It's not this long journey that I'm a dreadin to go
Or the country I come from, or the debts that I owe
There's just one thing that grieves me, and troubles my mind
It's leaving my little darling way back here behind

If I were a merchant and I could write a fine hand
I would write my love a letter that she'd understand
I would write by the river where the waters o'erflow
And I'd dream of my little Saro wherever I'd go

Oh Saro, pretty Saro please tell me your mind
Do you think me unworthy? Do you think me unkind?
When our life here is over you surely will see
I treated you as kindly as you treated me

94ssd:
Amélie lied to me, this was supposed to be easy
I found the one damn person to help me fall asleep in the night
But sleeping gets tiring, and dark reminds me of dying
And as long as this feeble heart is still beating
You will find me rushing through every room, switching on all the lights

The problem with falling in love in late night bars
Is that there's always more nights, there's always more bars
The problem with showing your lover your scars
Is that everybody's lover is covered in scars

Masterpiece:
Really don't mind if you sit this one out
My words but a whisper, your deafness a shout
I may make you feel but I can't make you think
Your sperm's in the gutter, your love's in the sink.

So you ride yourself over the fields and
you make all your animal deals and
you wise men don't know how it feels
to be thick as a brick.

And the sandcastle virtues are all swept away
in the tidal destruction, the moral melee
The elastic retreat rings the gloves of play
as the last wave uncovers the newfangled way

But your new shoes are worn at the heels and
your suntan does rapidly peel and
you wise men don't know how it feels
to be thick as a brick.

And the love that I feel
is so far away
I'm a bad dream that I just had today
and you shake your head and said "it's a shame"

Spend me back down the years and the days of my youth
Draw the leave and black curtains and shut out the whole truth
Spend me down the long ages, let them sing the song.

Masterpiece:
DADDY'S FLOWN ACROSS THE OCEAN
LEAVING JUST A MEMORY
A SNAP SHOT IN THE FAMILY ALBUM
DADDY WHAT ELSE DID YOU LEAVE FOR ME?
DADDY WHAT'DYA LEAVE BEHIND FOR ME?

ALL IN ALL IT WAS JUST A BRICK IN THE WALL
ALL IN ALL IT WAS ALL JUST BRICKS IN THE WALL
