Imitation Leather Jacket

Oh you left me there with no time to think

The dishes piled high in the kitchen sink

There’s nothing in the house and I need a drink

‘Cos you left me

You had a difficult heart and a difficult mind

I’m the mess that you left behind

But I still don’t understand just why you left me

Oh you left me there with odd brown shoe

In an empty room with a dull grey view

I still don’t know what I want to do

And you left me

There’s nothing to eat and no fags to smoke

Don’t tell me I can’t take a joke

I wonder where I left that rope you left me

It’s been a long time since the rock and roll

It’s been a long time since the rock and roll

It’s been a long time since the rock and roll

It’s been a long time since the rock and roll

It’s been a long time

Been a long time

Been a long

Been a long time

Been a long time

Been a long

Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time

Oh you left me with no socks, no shoes, no shirts, no fish, no cups, no electricity

You left me

Oh you left me with no eyebrows, no oven, no broom, no celery, no jump

Oh, you left me

You left me with no socks, no Rizlas, no pens, no Friends videos, no jam

Oh, you left me

No eyebrows, no oven, no broom, no celery, no jump leads, no Blu Tack, no decaffeinated instant coffee (in case of insanity), no rugs, no mugs, no pillow cases, no Stravinsky collection, no impression, no biscuit jar, no coat hangers, no bum roll, no dressing gown, no imitation leather jacket….

It’s been a long time since the rock and roll

It’s been a long time since the rock and roll

It’s been a long time since the rock and roll

It’s been a long time since the rock and roll

It’s been a long time

Been a long time

Been a long

Been a long time

Been a long time

Been a long

Been a long time

Been a long time

Been a long

Been a long time

Been a long time

Been a long

Been a long time since the rock and roll

It’s been a long time since the rock and roll

Been a long

Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time

No socks, no shoes, no shirts, no fish, no cups, no eyebrows, no oven, no broom, no celery, no jump leads, no Blu Tack, no library membership, no imitation leather jacket, no Rizlas, no pens, no Friends videos, no jam, no cheese, no encyclopaedia, no filing cabinet, no decaffeinated instant coffee (in case of insanity)

It’s been a long time since the rock and roll

It’s been a long time since the rock and roll

It’s been a long time since the rock and roll

It’s been a long time since the rock and roll

It’s been a long time since the rock and roll

It’s been a long time since the rock and roll

Been a long

Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely lonely time

...no encyclopaedia, no filing cabinet.
