The Curb

The beauty of the heartbeat, the beauty of the being

I saw it on the news, yeah, I saw it on the tele screen

They said it's better than it's ever been

The love of the moment, the love of the being

I heard it on the tannoy, yeah, I saw it in a magazine

They said it's better than it's ever been

So come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on

This life's gonna take you round the bend

But the fog is thinning now my friend

So come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on

When the rain turns these puddles into lakes

And it's sink or swim

Which will it be babe?

Just kicked to the curb

Boy, it hurts like treason

Treason

Just laying in the dirt

Without a rhyme or redeeming hope

Just let them sulk

Let them sulk

The cynic of the new world, the cynic of the being

I saw them with the fliers, yeah, I saw them out on Wardour Street

Saying it's better than it's ever been

The party with the members, the party without beings

I saw them in their mugshots, I saw the list of felonies

They said it's better than it's ever been

So come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on

This life's gonna take you round the bend

But the fog is thinning now, my friend

So come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on

When the rain turns these puddles into lakes

And it's sink or swim

Which will it be babe?

Just kicked to the curb

Boy, it hurts like treason

Treason

Just laying in the dirt

Without a rhyme or redeeming hope

Just let them sulk

Let them sulk
