Sometimes my life is like The Manics
Started off so fantastic
Peaked mid-twenties with the Holy Bible
Richey Edwards he was suicidal
Ironic really when I revered the record I related not at all to it
Sometimes my life is like Hindley
Married to Ian Brady
Cigar hangs from his lips
He glares at me with his hands on his hips
And he takes a bag takes a drag and some cats and drags me last canal
Sometimes my life is like a cross
Jesus put there by his boss
Didn't ask for life or love
Disgrace or glory, God or good
He's nailed to this f*cking wood oh good God above
Sometimes my life is like a snake
Slithers round, won't go straight
Glares at me gets high and hisses
Finds my face each time he pisses
One day he'll eat me on a branch high up in the old orchard tree
Sometimes my life is like The Manics
Started off so fantastic
Peaked mid-twenties with the Holy Bible
Richey Edwards he was suicidal
Ironic really when I revered the record I related not at all to it
