I can still remember



The coat I wore that day

I can still remember

Yellow as a plastic moon

The coat I wore that day

With a weave as thick as chains

Yellow as a plastic moon



With a weave as thick as chains

Walkin' past the sideshow tents



Drunker than we knew

Walkin' past the sideshow tents

Could never fill my brother's shoes

Drunker than we knew

Got them fairground blues

Could never fill my brother's shoes

Got them fairground blues

Got them fairground blues



Got them fairground blues

Was gone so longI didn't know



If my brother'd still be there

Was gone so longI didn't know

When I got back to the

If my brother'd still be there

Burlesque show

When I got back to the

Four cops were standin' on the stairs

Burlesque show



Four cops were standin' on the stairs

Brother's hands were stuck in irons



Sweat had soaked his hair

Brother's hands were stuck in irons

Said 'you missed the fun in there

Sweat had soaked his hair

Missed all the fun in there

Said "you missed the fun in there

You missed the fun in there'

Missed all the fun in there



You missed the fun in there"

Brother's face was red and wild



Cop said: 'do you know this boy? 

Brother's face was red and wild

Choked a man for just his smile

Cop said: "do you know this boy? 

This one's a killer not a boy.'

Choked a man for just his smile



This one's a killer not a boy."

My brother spit and laughed



And said: 'i shoulda' stuck with you

My brother spit and laughed

Big brother shoulda' stuck with you.'

And said: "i shoulda' stuck with you



Big brother shoulda' stuck with you."
