lyrics

No soup for no one
no beef, no buttered biscuit
'less it's saved and sat upon, and rationed 'cross an endless night shift
For every mouse there is a maze, and if there's will to walk it
a piece of cheese to eat and shelter in a doctor's pocket
but I left my light on
that swinging bulb up in my attic
I turned my TV off and spared myself that ceaseless static
I learned to cross like fingers at the backs of children lying
fearful faithful that they've got the facts in times so trying

and if you're upset now, then chances are I'll always bring you down
Darling, if you're upset now then chances are I'll always bring you down

Helping hands, they'll fall
they'll ball to fists for pushing flowers
or raising alcoholic sips to lips that kiss like ours
and whisper word of creepers crawling in the shadows laughing
gonna shake free from them answers to those questions no ones asking
'less life's so meaningless that we should owe our puppet master
stock in even this we're told to take to kill us faster
'less life's so meaningless that we should owe our puppet master
stock in even this we're told to take to kill us faster

and if you're upset now, then chances are I'll always bring you down
Darling, if you're upset now then chances are I'll always bring you down
