Album: The Coral (2002)





I remember when I saw the sea freeze

But it said nothing about the birds and the bees

They were swarming around my head

You'd be better off dead



But I ain't going down like that

I ain't going down like that



Cos I'm better than him and I know where I've been

You know where god I'm bound

I lie its a sin and I know its sin but don't we all sin

If that is the truth then the truth is grim

Now it ain't easy in jail, the stories for sale

Your father has died while he's gripped for bail

He points to the west and he leaves out the rest

And wants you to be his special guest



ooooooooooooooooh



I remember when I saw the leaves fall

I was in the woods, and the ??????

Into the ditch I fly

Wanted dead or alive



But I ain't going down like that

No I ain't going down like that



Cos I'm better than him and I know where I've been

You know where god I'm bound

I lie its a sin and I know its sin but don't we all sin

If that is the truth then the truth is grim

Now it ain't easy in jail, the stories for sale

Your father has died while he's gripped for bail

He points to the west and he leaves out the rest

And wants you to be his special guest



oooooooooooohh



Hi Hi Hi



Cos I'm better than him and I know where I've been

You know where god I'm bound

I lie its a sin and I know its sin but don't we all sin

If that is the truth then the truth is grim

And STOP!
