| Standing in the dock at Southampton,
|
| Trying to get to Holland or France.
|
| The man in the mac said, You've got to turn back.
|
| You know they didn't even give us a chance.
|
| Christ you know it ain't easy,
|
| You know how hard it can be.
|
| The way things are going
|
| They're going to crucify me.
|
| Finally made the plane into Paris,
|
| Honey mooning down by the Seine.
|
| Peter Brown called to say,
|
| You can make it O.K.,
|
| You can get married in Gibraltar, near Spain.
|
| Christ you know it ain't easy,
|
| You know how hard it can be.
|
| The way things are going
|
| They're going to crucify me.
|
| Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton,
|
| Talking in our beds for a week.
|
| The newspapers said, Say what you doing in bed?
|
| I said, We're only trying to get us some peace.
|
| Christ you know it ain't easy,
|
| You know how hard it can be.
|
| The way things are going
|
| They're going to crucify me.
|
| Saving up your money for a rainy day,
|
| Giving all your clothes to charity.
|
| Last night the wife said,
|
| Oh boy, when you're dead
|
| You don't take nothing with you
|
| But your soul - think!
|
| Made a lightning trip to Vienna,
|
| eating chocolate cake in a bag.
|
| The newspapers said, She's gone to his head,
|
| They look just like two gurus in drag.
|
| Christ you know it ain't easy,
|
| You know how hard it can be.
|
| The way things are going
|
| They're going to crucify me.
|
| Caught an early plane back to London.
|
| Fifty acorns tied in a sack.
|
| The men from the press said, We wish you success,
|
| It's good to have the both of you back.
|
| Christ you know it ain't easy,
|
| You know how hard it can be.
|
| The way things are going
|
| They're going to crucify me.
|
| The way things are going
|
| They're going to crucify me. |
