hey! susan - mekons lyrics

Loading...

intro:
we’re backstreet in new york
the rehearsal studio of the mekons

[verse 1]
he thought education would be the way out
he’d read the books and learned by rote
but they walked past in their gowns
they were worlds apart
a man like him just had no place
[verse 2]
he started drinking too much
and one night in the pub he saw his wife behind the bar
they arranged a divorce but spent the night together
so he destroyed the one he loved

[verse 3]
susan turned to religion, amen!
after the tragedy, the death of her children
and returned to her husband and gave her body to him
she said it was her duty

[verse 4]
his mind was free but he’d nothing left at all
he cursed the night in which he was conceived
while the witless upper classes attended the boat race
he died
