The Impression That I Get - Victims of Circumstance

Chorus: The bit that I don't get It's how it changed so fast How it changed from we will always be together To it will never last. The writing on the wall I hadn't seen it yet When you told me you were tired of it all That's the bit that I don't get. So call me a foll I do! But no longer the fool beside you And I'm learning from the pain Won't be doing that again! Chorus: The bit that I don't get It's how it changed so fast How it changed from we will always be together To it will never last. The writing on the wall I hadn't seen it yet When you told me you were tired of it all That's the bit that I don't get! People break up everyday But I never thought I would wake up to hear you say Forever now means never! Chorus: The bit that I don't get It's how it changed so fast How it changed from we will always be together To it will never last. The writing on the wall I hadn't seen it yet When you told me you were tired of it all That's the bit that I don't get!

Did you think I'd take it sitting down And let you walk all over me Thought you knew me much better than that I keep much better company With your lawyers and your two timing friends I guess you know who I mean Your detectives and your private eyes Could never win me back again Just where did it get ya What satisfaction was had You kicked the shit right in my face Is that all the thanks I get You said we made such a pretty pair Living in harmony I'm sorry honey but I disagree It seemed more like a comedy Just look how you lied girl That Judas right by your side He hung you up so you cut me right down Is that all the thanks I get Guess I'll find me a brand new girl That won't take too very long There's so many floatin' 'round this town Waitin' by the telephone And if you want me I'll be in the bar Back into my usual ways Or on the corner with the rest of the boys You and I were just a breath away It was great while it lasted But oh Lord it turned nasty You didn't give me one chance to explain Well is that all the thanks I get Is that the thanks I get Is that the thanks I get Is that the thanks I get for loving you Is that the thanks I get Is that the thanks I get Is that the thanks I get for loving you

This must be heaven, tonight I cross the line. You must be the angel, I though I might never find. Was it you I heard singing, Oh while I was chasin' dreams. Driven by the wind, like the dust that blows around, And the rain fallin' down, but I never know. Got to be heaven, cause here's where the rainbow ends. If this ain't the real thing, then it's close enough to pretend. When that wind blows, when the night's about to fall. You can hear the silence call, it's a certain sort of sound, Like the rain fallin' down. Holes in what's left of my reason, holes in the knees of my blues. Odds against me been increasin', but I'll pull through. I never could read no road map, I don't know what the weather might do. But when that rich wind whines and I see the dark star shine, I got a feeling there's no time to lose, no time to lose. Never know now, just don't never know, no. Well it's been heaven, but even the rainbows will end. Now my sails are fillin' and the wind is willin'. And I'm as good as gone again. I'm still walkin', so I'm sure that I can dance. Just a Saint of Circumstance, just a tiger in a trance. And the rain fallin' down, well, you never know, just don't know. Listen, sure don't know what I going for, but I'm gonna go for it for sure...

I've had too much to drink tonight and I don't think I should drive I recognize that face; I'm out of place You never used to mind my company When you get lonely and I know I'm outta line But you don't want to sleep alone tonight, You still want me around I never had your confidence or the benefit of the doubt And though you never really trusted me I never let you down But you can't see beyond your memory This time you're fuckin' done But you don't want to sleep alone tonight So just ask me to stay for just one more night, But we both know how this ends 'Cause the past is never enough, that you'd ever be done with the rest Oi' Paranoia Oi' Paranoia Oi' Paranoia Oi' Paranoia I know we been through this before and it's starting to get sad For both of us, but hey, we never change; creatures of our habits And even though I know you're blaming me, just like you've always done When you don't want to sleep alone tonight, So just ask me to stay for just one more night, But we both know how this ends 'Cause the past is never enough, that you'd ever be done with the rest Oi' Paranoia Oi' Paranoia Oi' Paranoia Oi' Paranoia It's wake up, break up, get drunk, and make up It's wake up, break up, get drunk, and make up It's wake up and break up and get drunk and make up And so long; you're gone; forget what went wrong The phone rings and we have drinks and repeat And how long we'll go on before we just move on We wake up and break up and get drunk and make up And wake up and break up and get drunk and make up

The police were waitin' when the sun came up You better move your ass Or we'll really get rough I never wanted trouble But I sure got enough I'm bad at bein' subtle But I ain't that tough, no Just a victim of circumstance Didn't you know Just a victim of circumstance Doesn't it show I'm just a victim of circumstance Wherever I go Just a victim of bad reputation I go no chance of shakin' Really gets you down when you don't belong An' everyone around says you growed up wrong But why do they resent it, I ain't doin' anything They say that I'm demented an' I never could sing Then everywhere I went I caused them such alarm You know I never meant to cause anybody harm, no Just a victim of circumstance Didn't you know Just a victim of circumstance Doesn't it show I'm just a victim of circumstance Wherever I go Just a victim of bad reputation I go no chance of shakin' I've been laughed at, I've been shut out But let there be no doubt Never been afraid of chances I been takin' The police are waitin' when the sun came up You better move your ass Or we'll really get rough I never wanted trouble But I sure get enough I'm bad at bein' subtle But I ain't that tough, no Just a victim of circumstance Didn't you know Just a victim of circumstance Doesn't it show I'm just a victim of circumstance Wherever I go Just a victim of bad reputation I go no chance of shakin'
