Terry Hall - Ballad of a landlord lyrics
Your rating:
On the day you arrived the bedroom curtains were drawn all was still the way you left it same number on the door easy come, easy go what a way to treat your soul though I confess where once hearts rested now there's nothing but a hole So the prodigal son returns I guess the pleasure's not enough did he promise you the earth a world of beauty an the bluff I tried to tend the garden until the flowers fell to weed so now the place lies in a ruin the way you lied and ruined me Do I have the answer if I did I wouldn't know so take it if you want it if you don't then let me go Fake leopard skin fur says it all you never could be real how I long to taste the secrets from your lands of phoney tears you tried to be a movement but there was no one on your side did you come back here to haunt me or take me for a ride take yourself away I've been here once before and I can't have you hurting me anymore
