I'll need tonight to sit and think about this

Think what to do.

I'll take some strength to banish hollow sorrow.

Hollow sorrow's nothing new.

Just enough strength to last until tomorrow

Until I believe in my soul.

Tonight I lost sight of all purpose

Despite all this trickery you told me was right.

I was such a good boy I let you hold the door

So kind, so nice, where's my prize?

(That's all there ever is) Oh yeah yeah yeah?

(That's all there ever was) Ah you must be fucking joking.

(The same for everyone) Oh yes. Yes yes.

Would you repeat that. Break it to me gently,

Stand over there.

Oh I know I was an arrogant boy but I let you hold the door

Oh I was kind. I was nice, where's the prize?

And I'm on the train from New Street

To Euston. I'm going out to Harrow again

And I'm trying to get the feeling

That I had in nineteen seventy two.

Oh but you're going too fast for me here,

I'm saying, wait a minute there, wait a minute there

Hold it, stop! Let me get this clear

(That's all there ever is) oh yeah yeah yeah?

(That's all there ever was) yes, yes. ha ha ha.

(The same for everyone) Oh yes. yes. yes.

You see I know what this is, I know

What's going on here, this is just the difference between . . .

It's the battle between the body and the soul. The spirit

And what's needed here. . .

What I intend to do now is I'm going to punish my body.

I'll punish the body to believe in the soul, I will punish

my body, until I believe in my soul.
