It's [bad word] down with rain
The dogs they all do howl
Just beneath the surface, the faces all do scowl
Selling off an empire, they sell it by the pound
 [bad word] in the market square

Give him 15 Deutschmarks for an old red hat
He will sell you the coat off of his back
And he's looking handsome and he's looking sad
 [bad word] in the market square

 [bad word] in the market
 [bad word] in the market
 [bad word] in the market square

He'll tell you stories about his past
He'll tell you stories if you ask
And he's looking handsome and he's looking sad
 [bad word] in the market square

Yes, [bad word] in the market
Yes, [bad word] in the market
Yes, [bad word] in the market square

Yes, [bad word] in the market
Yes, [bad word] in the market
 [bad word] in the market square
