I travelled from Dublin, you said you'd change the world

You sing like Sinatra, always

You pulled 'em for miles now, like Garbo in Berlin

You played 'em for zeroes, just like always

Tonight, some bitch is hassling me

And tonight, it feels so good feeling cheap



I can only disappoint you 'cos I always let you down

I can only disappoint you 'cos I always let you down



You turned a man cuckoo, half animal, half grace

The chick was a teaser, always

Tonight, their hips will swivel and turn

So we drove, to the place where we first met



I can only disappoint you 'cos I always let you down

I can only disappoint you, always



The queens they all loved you, the tall, the short, the fair

The sailors, the psychos, always

And here, I faltered, gun in my hand

And you, with "piggies" scrawled on your wall

And tonight, her note said "better off dead"

And the earth has never moved for me since



I can only disappoint you 'cos I always let you down

I can only disappoint you, always

I can only disappoint you 'cos I always let you down

I can only disappoint you 'cos I always let you down

'Cos I always let you down

'Cos I always let you down



'Cos I always let you down

'Cos I always let you down

('Cos I always let you down) 'Cos I always let you down

'Cos I always let you down

'Cos I always let you down

'Cos I always let you down

'Cos I always let you down
