The Dealer

Tell me all about the deal, tell me what you heard;
hell, I heard, aiming, straining and playing for the right world
I wasted my time, I'm dying
The cathartic stroked the chic, the colic choked the unstoked
the goal's gone, tell me what went wrong
the red faced, puking, poached, about to die, collapsing, raving
blood vessels bursting all over the carpet and over the pastry
Tell me what does the dealer do, does he croak?
He's got to croak harder, aiming, straining and playing
Some joke! Hah, I'm crying!
Such a great waste of time, I'm dying
The cut up, corpulent, flat out, distant, song of the old ways
stood on the edge of a mountain and got paid
time to cry, a real sidesplitter, still bitter, Adolf Hitler!
Tell me who knows the dealer, tell me his name
he is the dealer, my child, aiming, straining and playing
big, bright, wide smile; tell me again; tell me again
I wasted my time, I'm dying
Expressive, take our big chance, big chum, be our pal
the British, slimiest, shinest dance
the garrison totters; dance, mascot, dance
excessive, forgive us, twice a god, twice over
two, three - down on your knees and roll over
show us, shun us, stun us; fifty-five, half alive
with a wand, and unlimited power to speak our tongues
in the private ovens for the young
Tell me all about the deal, duke
tell me what next, tell me, duke
aiming, straining and playing;
your rotten pretexts are a waste of time, I'm dying
Failing the cause, our claws, failing honour
slash out at the jaws of a kitten with an axe
rest assured
we shall defend our homes, our mysteries, our car industry
our French teachers, our wenches, our lunches, our mothers
and not to be ever forgotten our cities
the arsehole areas of burning careers
soon all satisfied, by mega, mega, mega dreams
Tell about the deal, Mister Death
tell me what have you done, Mister Death
aiming, straining, playing, straining for the gun
I wasted my time, I'm dying
I wasted my time, I'm dying
I wasted my time, I'm dying
