lyrics

Part 1

I gave him a rock that could be terraformed
And hoped after that he’d find himself reborn
Go to the pub and take your brother home

Like Billy before him, he couldn’t cope
Held onto reason like a bar of soap
Go to the pub and take your brother home

They put him in jail when he became entwined
In shipments of arms sent off to Palestine
Go to the pub and take your brother home

And never a call, never a card for him
He probably spent every day in the gym
Go to the pub and take your brother home

Part 2
…

Part 3

Are you the man on the street that I was primed to meet?
Am I the animal loose among the shoppers?
Some of the hairs I keep are getting blonder now
They might give me away to the coppers

Tonight, out on the bowling green, I will cause a little scene
Tonight, with the money in my suit, I will do away with memories

La la la la la la, etc.

Tonight, I knew you’d come for me, there in your hazmat overalls
Tonight, has mother sent you to disinfect me before she calls?
Tonight, let us be legless, let us move by special decree
Tonight, I might be reckless, I might be tired but I’m free

Part 4

Se-se-sensitive, lay there in the cold
Se-se-sensite, love in the meadow
Se-se-sensitive, meanwhile down bellow
Se-se-sensitive, drink a tonne of wine

Sensitive assignment, too sensitive, you give up on the way
Sensitive assignment, so sensitive, you give up on the way

Se-se-sensitive, yesterday someone
Se-se-sensitive, lips of an outlaw
Se-se-sensitive, cans won’t fully burn
Se-se-sensitive, suicide by nun

Sensitive assignment, so sensitive, you give up on the way
Sensitive assignment, so sensitive, you give up on the way

Se-se-sensitive, take your brother home
Se-se-sensitive, getting blonder now
Se-se-sensitive, money in my suit
Se-se-sensitive, cause a little scene

Sensitive assignment, so sensitive, you give up on the way
Sensitive assignment, so sensitive, you give up on the way

Sensitive assignment
Sensitive assignment
