Mary Jo

Mary Jo, living alone

Drinking tea on her own

She wants...I don't know what you want

Mary Jo, living alone

Drinking gin, the telly's on

She wants The night to follow day and back again

She doesn't want to sleep, well who could blame her?

If she wants the night to follow day and back again

She doesn't want to sleep, well who could blame her?

If she sleeps, well who could blame her

If she sleeps, well who could blame her

If she's sleeping?

Mary Jo, back with yourself

For company, keep telling yourself

You're young, and it'll happen soon

Mary Jo, no one can guess, what you've been through,

Now you've got love To burn

It's someone else's turn to go through Hell

And you can see them come from fifty yards, yeah

you can tell

It's someone else's turn to take a fall, and now

You are the one who's strong enough to help

them

The one who's strong enough to help them

The one who's strong enough to help them all

Mary Jo, you're looking thin

You're reading a book, The State I'm In

But oh, it doesn't help at all

Cos what you want is a cigarette

And a thespian with a caravanette in Hull

Your life is never dull in your dreams

A pity that it never seems to work the way you see it

Life is never dull in your head

A sorry tale of action and the men you left for

Women and the men you left for

Intrigue and the men you left for dead

Life is never dull in your dreams

A pity that it never works out Mary

Life is never dull in your dreams

A sorry tale of action and the men you left for

Women and the men you left for Intrigue and the men you left for dead

The men you left for dead
