Lost Weekend Lyrics
it took a lost weekend in a hotel in amsterdam
and double pneumonia in a single room
and the sickest joke was the price of the medicine
are you laughing at me now may i please laugh along with you
this morning i woke up from a deep unquiet sleep
with ashtray clothes and miss lonelyheart`s pen
with which i wrote for you a lovesong in tatoo
upon my palm `twas stolen from me when jesus took my hand
you see i i wouldn't say it if i didn't mean it
drop me and i`ll fall to pieces too easily
i was a king bee with a head full of attitude
wore my heart on my sleeve like a stained
my aim was to taboo you
could we meet in the marketplace
did i ever hey please did you wound my knees
you see i i wouldn't say it if i didn't mean it
drop me and i`ll fall to pieces
yes it`s too easy and there's nobody else to blame
will i hang my head in a crying shame
there is nobody else to blame nobody else except my sweet self
again it took a lost weekend in a hotel in amsterdam
twenty four gone years to conclude in tears
that the sickest joke was the price of the medicine
are you laughing at me now
may i please laugh along
i was a king bee with a head full of attitude
and ashtray heart on my sleeve wounded knees
and my one love song was a tatoo upon my palm
you wrote upon me when you took my hand
you see i i wouldn't say it if i didn't mean it
drop me and i`ll fall to pieces too easily
and double pneumonia in a single room
and the sickest joke was the price of the medicine
are you laughing at me now may i please laugh along with you
with ashtray clothes and miss lonelyheart`s pen
with which i wrote for you a lovesong in tatoo
upon my palm `twas stolen from me when jesus took my hand
drop me and i`ll fall to pieces too easily
wore my heart on my sleeve like a stained
my aim was to taboo you
could we meet in the marketplace
did i ever hey please did you wound my knees
drop me and i`ll fall to pieces
will i hang my head in a crying shame
there is nobody else to blame nobody else except my sweet self
twenty four gone years to conclude in tears
that the sickest joke was the price of the medicine
are you laughing at me now
may i please laugh along
and ashtray heart on my sleeve wounded knees
and my one love song was a tatoo upon my palm
you wrote upon me when you took my hand
drop me and i`ll fall to pieces too easily

Another great Llloyd Cole lyrical song - about the aftereffects of a drug or drink induced day/night before in Amsterdam (where else!) - was it a girlfriend or prostitute..
What a great song. Brings back loads of happy memories in care free time.
