The Pogues
2:46One thing you can rely upon You can't rely on anyone With no one left to call upon Now you're so alone A broken clock, a speeding train Your damaged standing still again Your juicy secret down the drain Time marches on No pair of clothing on the screen River of oblivion I looked around but you were gone Train kept rolling on And I said to myself "it's the end" And I looked but could not find a friend And I wished I had never been gone This race which is already won It's empty in the restless tomb It's empty in the living room The lights are on there's no one home As evening falls again The son of man falls from the sky The terminator has to die Los Angeles is burning down I am not surprised And I said to myself "it's the end" And I looked but could not find a friend And I wished I had never been gone This race which is already won Never seen a man look so forlorn Sun down 'til the break of dawn Face down and his clothes all torn Wandering this town Way out beyond the blackest stump The woman sucked a bone dry pump With a lonely distance in her eyes She slowly walked away Love is gone, my love is dead No butter and there is no bread Everything that's good is gone Train kept rolling on And I said to myself "It's the end" And I looked, but cannot find a friend And I wished I had never been gone This race which is already done
