John Wesley Harding - Dark Dark Heart - Sözleri

In an office two miles underground

They can't tell night from day

Secretaries typing errors of judgement

In eternally full in-trays

Phones ring in, get put on hold

Well I'm just waiting for my nails to dry

I was coming unstuck with nothing to show

You stuck to him like felt on velcro

But now he's gone solo

He's taken all the amps, smashed the bedside lamp

Taken all the lightbulbs and the decorative wheelclamps

You got a dark dark dark heart

It's the heart of darkness



Now you live in a filing cabinet

You're another painful smiling face

What you had doesn't even have the grace

To be forgotten without a trace

It lies, it cheats, it moans, it bleats

Almost human in every detail

In this stinking room, no-one goes to bed

There's nothing to say that hasn't been said

It's not enough to wish you were dead

You had the last laugh but he didn't know why

He jumped out the window, man, he thought he could fly

You got a dark dark dark heart

It's the heart of darkness



Look at your body well you're lying still

There's a smile across your face

At the funeral yesterday

Your corpse looked out of place

You looked like death to the gathered throng

But I knew you were laughing inside

Something about your sense of humour

Based on innuendo and rumour

You were the ultimate consumer

I took all your things, I threw away your wedding rings

You had a big collection, baby, now they don't look so

Fetching

You got a dark dark dark heart

It's the heart of darkness



It's 4 am inside my mind

But it's dusk out on the street

The lamps are burning fireflies

Who couldn't stand the heat

I got cool bed linen, baby

So the story should be complete

But somewhere in the back of behind

There's a light that makes me feel unkind

Those stupid things I made you sign

It ain't deus ex machina

It's not some soul subpoena

It's just when things mean nothing it makes you meaner

You got a dark dark dark heart

It's the heart of darkness
