Somebody stop her, the lifter, the runner The girl with the gold in her mouth They caught her at london, waterloo station Strung up on a ferris wheel She used to lose pageants, pick of the litter The newspapers screamed from their racks Pictures at seven, nineteen-eighty-something The waltz on her father's shoes No more losing the war, karen No more losing the war, karen But i really knew her in an after-pub closing way Falling down, crawling drunk Laughing like children with sugared-up gullets I rue this day No more losing the war, karen. No more losing the war. Got me all frustrated In an old-fashioned way. Easy does it, rider I've had a long, long day No more losing the war, karen No more losing the war, karen

People, people who need people Are the luckiest people in the world We're children needing other children And yet letting our grown-up pride Hide all the need inside Acting more like children than children Lovers are very special people They're the luckiest people in the world With one person, one very special person A feeling deep in your soul Says you were half now you're whole No more hunger and thirst But first be a person who needs people People, people who need people Are the luckiest people in the world With one person, one very special person A feeling deep in your soul Says you were half now you're whole No more hunger and thirst But first be a person who needs people You have got to need people They're the luckiest people in the world
