Nothing I can say
Nothing I can do
Same as the day before
And I don’t know if I can make it any more
 
Poison in the air
Babies in the ground
Horrors on parade
The angel and the badman are playing war

I can forget it for you
Real cheap
Fill you with neon fun
Look at the debutantes
Page Three
You're not the only one
 
Please
I can’t take any more
I don’t need a million
Just a life worth living for
Please
Let the good guys win
I just want good news
Just a little sunshine in the sin
 
Once there was a way
People weren’t afraid
You can ask your Dad
The good Earth was alive in green and gold
 
Something must have happened
Something unforeseen
Little paper notes
These became more important than your soul
 
You should stop this thinking
No good
Always gets you down
Take a red one, honey, or a blue
Turn away that frown
 
Please
I can’t take any more
I don’t need a million
Just a life worth living for
Please
Let the good guys win
I just want good news
Just a little sunshine in the sin
