ballad of a landlord

terry hall

on the day you arrived

the bedroom curtaims were drawn

all was still

the way you left it

same number on the door

easy come, easy go

what a way to treat your soul

though I confess

where once hearts rested

now there’s nothing

but a hole

so the prodigal returns

I juess the pleasure’s not enough

Did he pormise you the earth

A world of besuty and the bluff

]I tried to tend the garden

until the flowers fell to weed

so now the place lies in a ruin

the way you lied and ruined me

do I have the answer

if I did I wouldn’t know

so take it if you want it

if you don’t

then let me go

fake leopard skin fur says it all

you never could be real

how I long to taste the secrets

from uour land of phoney tears

you tried to be a movement

but there was no one on your side

did you come back here to haunt me

or to take me for a ride

take yourself away

I’ve been here once before

And I can’t have you hurtig me

Anymore
