Every year it's the sameAnd I feel it againI'm a loser - no chance to winLeaves start fallingComedown is callingLoneliness starts sinking in But I'm oneI'm oneAnd I can seeThat this is meAnd I will beYou'll all see thatI'm the one Where do you get those blue blue jeansFaded, patch secret so tightWhere do you get that walk oh-so leanYour shoes and your shirt all just right But I'm oneI'm oneAnd I can seeThat this is meAnd I will beYou'll all see thatI'm the one I got a Gibson without a caseBut I can't get that even tanned look on my faceIll fitting clothes and I blend in the crowdFingers so clumsyVoice too loud But I'm oneI'm oneAnd I can seeThat this is meAnd I will beYou'll all see thatI'm the oneI'm the oneYeah, I'm the one

A beach is a place where a man can feelHe's the only soul in the world that's realWell I see a face coming through the hazeI remember him from those crazy days Ain't you the guy who used to set the pacesRiding up in front of a hundred facesI don't suppose you would remember meBut I used to follow you back in '63 I've got a good jobAnd I'm newly bornYou should see me dressed up in my uniformI work in hotel, all gilt and flashRemember the place where the doors were smashed? Bell Boy! I got to keep running nowBell Boy! Keep my lip buttoned downBell Boy! Carry this baggage outBell Boy! Always running at someone's heelYou know how I feel, always running at someone's heel Some nights I still sleep on the beachRemember when stars were in reachThen I wander in early to workSpend the day licking boots for my perks A beach is a place where a man can feelHe's the only soul in the world that's realWell I see a face coming through the hazeI remember him from those crazy days Ain't you the guy who used to set the pacesRiding up in front of a hundred facesI don't suppose you would remember meBut I used to follow you back in '63 People often changeBut when I look in your eyesYou could learn a lot fromA job like mineThe secret to meIsn't flown like a flagI carry it behindThis little badgeWhat says Bell Boy! I got to keep running nowBell Boy! Keep my lip buttoned downBell Boy! Carry this baggage outBell Boy! Always running at someone's heelYou know how I feel, always running at someone's heel

You were under the impressionThat when you were walking forwardYou'd end up further onwardBut things ain't quite that simple You got altered informationYou were told to not take chancesYou missed out on new dancesNow you're losing all your dimples My jacket's gonna be cut and slim and checkedMaybe a touch of seersucker, with an open neckI ride a G.S. scooter with my hair cut neatWear my wartime coat in the wind and sleet Love Reign O'er MeLove Reign O'er MeLove... I've had enough of livingI've had enough of dyingI've had enough of smilingI've had enough of cryingI've taken all the high roadsI've squandered and I've savedI've had enough of childhoodI've had enough of graves Get a job and fight to keep itStrike out to reach a mountainBe so nice on the outsideBut inside keep ambition Don't cry because you hunt themHurt them first they'll love youThere's a millionaire above youAnd you're under his suspicion My jacket's gonna be cut and slim and checkedMaybe a touch of seersucker, with an open neckI ride a G.S. scooter with my hair cut neatWear my wartime coat in the wind and sleet Love Reign O'er MeLove Reign O'er MeLove... I've had enough of dance hallsI've had enough of pillsI've had enough of street fightsI've seen my share of killsI'm finished with the fashionsAnd acting like I'm toughI'm bored with hate and passionI've had enough of trying to love

When a man is running from his bossWho holds a gun that fires "cost"And people die from being oldOr left alone because they're coldAnd bombs are dropped on fighting catsAnd children's dreams are run with ratsIf you complain you disappearJust like the lesbians and queers No one can love without the graceOf some unseen and distant faceAnd you get beaten up by blacksWho though they worked still got the sackAnd when your soul tells you to hideYour very right to die's deniedAnd in the battle on the streetsYou fight computers and receiptsAnd when a man is trying to changeIt only causes further painYou realize that all alongSomething in us going wrong... You stop dancing. ----- I don't mindOther guys dancin' with my girlThat's fineI know 'em all pretty well... Is it me, for a moment...For a moment...For a moment...For a moment...

Laugh and say I'm greenI've seen things you'll never seeTalk behind my backBut I'm off the beaten trackI'll take on anyoneAin't scared of a bloody noseDrink till I drop downWith one eye on my clothes What is it? I'll take itWho is she? I'll rape itGot a bet there? I'll meet itGetting high? You can't beat it Doctor Jimmy and mister JimWhen I'm pilled you don't notice himHe only comes out when I drink my gin You say she's a virginI'm gonna be the first inHer fella's gonna kill me?Oh fucking will heI'm seeing doubleBut don't miss me if you canThere's gonna be troubleWhen she choses her man What is it? I'll take itWho is she? I'll rape itGot a bet there? I'll meet itGetting high? You can't beat it Doctor Jimmy and mister JimWhen I'm pilled you don't notice himHe only comes out when I drink my gin Is it me? For a momentThe stars are fallingThe heat is risingThe past is calling I'm going back soonHome to get the baboonWho cut up my eyeMessed up my Levi'sI'm feeling restlessBring another score aroundMaybe something strongerCould really hold me down What is it? I'll take itWho is she? I'll rape it Got a bet there? I'll meet itGetting high? You can't beat it What is it? I'll take itWho is she? I'll rape it Doctor Jimmy and mister JimWhen I'm pilled you don't notice himHe only comes out when I drink my gin Is it me? For a momentThe stars are fallingThe heat is risingThe past is calling
