What Would Singers Sing
Written: 2004
Released: Unreleased
Not long ago I saw a pretty girl just standing there
I asked her for her
number and we started an affair
Everything was wonderful she said I love you
so
But when I said I feel the same she said you'll have to
go
Everyday
It's hard to see
The nutters and the sane
All look
the same to me
Everyday
It's hard to tell
Which way's heaven
Which
way's hell
But every night
On my knees
I give thanks for
everything
I give thanks
'Cause I know damn well
Without the minds of
mental girls
Well what would singers sing?
We'd go la la la..
Without
the minds of mental girls
Well what would singers sing?
In the middle of the night I caught a burglar unawares
We had a little
struggle and then he fell down the stairs
He broke his neck in two but
still he lived to tell
the tale
Of how he got compensation and I got sent
to gaol
Everyday
It's hard to see
The nutters and the sane
All
look the same to me
Everyday
It's hard to tell
Which way's
heaven
Which way's hell
But every night
On my knees
I give thanks
for everything
I give thanks
'Cause I know damn well
Without the clowns
in wigs and gowns
Well what would singers sing?
We'd go la la
la..
Without the clowns in wigs and gowns
Well what would singers
sing?
So I asked a holy man if heaven was within my means
He said it was if I would
blow myself to smithereens
So I did the deed but then awoke to find no
sainted choir
Instead a man with horns said come and join me by
the fire
Everyday
It's hard to see
The nutters and the
sane
All look the same to me
Everyday
It's hard to tell
Which way's
heaven
Which way's hell
But every night
On my knees
I give thanks
for everything
I give thanks
'Cause I know damn well
Without the lies
of hypocrites
Well what would singers sing?
We'd go la la la..
Without
the lies of hypocrites
Well what would singers sing?
