| Lyrics: | jo the waiter worked for me
serving wine in basement bars
only madmen ever stay, "got no
time"
if you're mindless please take mine
jo the waiter held me close
behind
the door marked 'gentlemen'
just for now that's all i need
won't someone call me
'friend'
long gone, i recall good times
i must confess i cried
we
burned out and the line went dead
at six o'clock i felt so alone
i crawled inside, where
else to go
i could be dead for all you know
everyday i died for you
valium
boys with painted eyes
young men need love special
i don't think i want it at
all
long gone, i recall good times
i must confess i cried
me,
i've retired to a back street flat
picture 'eyes in a cold steel frame'
the freaks
arrive, broken needles and blood
"what you on, man, to get those eyes"
it's
very touching, i'm so close to me
false smiles i've rehearsed for days
come inside, you
won't know i'm wrong
give me your heart, i'm so quickly gone

The Waiter", _T_u_b_e_w_a_y _A_r_m_y (Beggars Banquet/ATCO 1978 |
