Songs Title:it could have been a brilliant career[00:00:02]
He had a stroke at the age of 24[00:00:04]
It could have been a brilliant career[00:00:06]
Painting lines in a school that was too well known[00:00:07]
Painting lines with a friend that had gone before[00:00:16]
She challenged everyone to a fight[00:00:22]
But the people all backed down[00:00:25]
And they ran her out of town[00:00:28]
Cause she drank and swore and spoke[00:00:32]
Out of turn she was the village joke[00:00:35]
She had a stroke at the age of 24[00:00:44]
It could have been a brilliant career[00:00:48]
Getting clients to finance her strategies[00:00:51]
Filling time in on Safeways on Saturday[00:00:58]
She wears the clothes of an emperor[00:01:04]
But her paintings are a sham[00:01:07]
And they're going for a grand[00:01:11]
When the dealers come to view[00:01:14]
Do they ever see the real you [00:01:18]
He had a stroke at the age of 24[00:01:34]
It could have been a brilliant career[00:01:37]
Selling lies to the boys with the old Dansettes[00:01:41]
Pulling the wool playing the fool it's no wonder that[00:01:48]
He is dribbling spit tonight[00:01:55]
And the one he sent away[00:01:58]
Was the only one who stayed[00:02:01]
With a spoon and a decent book[00:02:05]
And you can tell by the way she looks she is sorry and resigned[00:02:08]
As he wets himself for the final time[00:02:15]
