Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sometimes you're better off dead
There's a gun in your hand and it's pointing at your head
You think you're mad, too unstable
Kicking in chairs and knocking down tables
In a restaurant in a West End town
Call the police, there's a mad man around
Running down, under the ground
To a dive bar in a West End town
[Verse 2]
In a West End town, a dead end world
The East End boys and West End girls
In a West End town, in a dead end world
The East End boys and West End girls
West End girls
West End girls
[Verse 3]
Too many shadows, whispering voices
Faces on posters, too many choices
If, when, why, what
How much have you got?
Have you got it? Do you get it?
If so, how often?
Which do you choose
A hard or soft option?
(How much do you need?)
[Verse 4]
In a West End town, in a dead end world
The East End boys and West End girls
In a West End town, in a dead end world
The East End boys and West End girls
West End girls
West End girls
[Verse 5]
You got a heart of glass or a heart of stone?
Just you wait till I take you home
We've got no future
We've got no past
Here today, built to last
In every city and every station
From Lake Geneva to the Finland station
(How far have you been?)
[Verse 6]
In a West End town, a dead end world
The East End boys and West End girls
In a West End town, in a dead end world
The East End boys and West End girls
West End girls
West End girls
West End girls
