Angel without mercy
The pipes without the peace
The Brits without their empire
The Church without its priests
The fun without the sadness
The will without the way
The grace without the favour
The straight without the [bad word] 
You may say that the whole world's going crazy
But I can't stop the whole world falling down on me

Got the crazy tricks of a lone relentless tinker 
I got the loneliness of a long distance drinker
I got the loneliness of a long distance drinker

The age without the beauty [bad word] without the clown
The churl without the money
The up without the down
The sane without the madness
The hurt without the pain
The light without the darkness [bad word] without the game

You may say that the whole world's going crazy
But I can't stop the whole world falling down on me
