SITTING IN THE HALF LIGHT
WAITING FOR A RING ON THE PHONE,
WITH ITS PROMISE OF REDEMPTION
FROM PERSON OR PERSONS UNKNOWN

SWITCHING THROUGH THE CHANNELS,
DON’T LOOK LIKE THERE’S NOTHING ON
WELL OF COURSE NOT, LOOK OUT YOUR WINDOW,
IN A MINUTE IT WILL BE DAWN

SO I GO TO THE WINDOW,
LOOK AT THE PEOPLE BELOW
WHAT’S WRONG WITH THOSE HALF WITTED MORONS?
AIN’T THEY GOT NO PLACE BETTER TO GO?

JUST SHUFFLING ALONG ON THEM COBBLES,
GETTING UGLIER EVERY DAY
NO, THEY DON’T CELEBRATE YOUR BIRTHDAY HERE
GET WITH IT OR JUST GO AWAY

THERE’S NOTHING, NOBODY HOME
NOWHERE TO GO, NO ONE TO SEE
GIVE A FRANC TO A LIVING LEGEND
GIVE ALL OF YOUR MONEY TO ME
GIVE ALL OF YOUR MONEY TO ME

NOTHING, NOBODY HOME
NOWHERE TO GO, NO ONE TO SEE
GIVE A FRANC TO A LIVING LEGEND
GIVE ALL OF YOUR MONEY TO ME

MAYBE I’M LOOKING FOR MEANING
MAYBE I’M LOOKING FOR CASH
MAYBE THERE’S A PLACE FOR ME
ROOTING THROUGH YOUR TRASH

RELAX OLD BOY, PULL YOUR SOCKS UP
GO OUT AND BUY YOU SOME PILLS
BRUSSELS IS JUST ONE BIG DRUG STORE
THERE’S SOMETHING TO CURE ALL YOUR ILLS

THERE’S NOTHING, NOBODY HOME
NOWHERE TO GO, NO ONE TO SEE
GIVE A FRANC TO A LIVING LEGEND

GIVE ALL YOUR MONEY TO ME

GIVE ALL YOUR MONEY TO ME

TO ME
