She was an alcoholic artist with too much makeup
Round her eyes and I never knew her real name
She was sunbeam wrapped in lies but I love her
And I'm sorry and that's all there is to say
It's like fairy from the ancient time and I hope it stays that way
And when I woke up on your kitchen floor
With a headache made in [bad word] and the flowers that I gave you smiled at me from the window pane
Then I thought I must be crazy 'cause I'm feeling kind of good
And then when satan helped me up again
It was then I understood
Well I was never meant to be a good boy
I was never meant to go to school
Well it's guys like me who get somewhere
'Cause everybody pity a fool now it's payback for the rainy days now it's no more me and you
Well I got mine you got yours babe now it's payback
Now it's me against the world it was the last time I forgave you...
