Hard to Be Human Again - Mekons

I made a mistake

When I looked over my shoulder

Cromwell was right behind me

In the driving rain

I came out of the bathroom

Looking for my ticket

(It's hard to be human)

Hard to be human again

Well I’ve been punched and beaten

Though it never shows

I’m going up to Sheffield

I don’t know when I’m coming home

He took me in a corner

And I don’t know why

I was looking for a friend

He shaved me dry

Never been in trouble

Don’t call me on the phone

Put the blower in the bathroom

Burn the house and start from scratch

Searching for existence

With my red, red wine

(It's hard to be human)

Hard to be human again

(It's hard to be human)

Hard to be human again

(It's hard to be human)

Hard to be human again

There was a caravan

Leaving in the dusk

I saw a man

Hold a chicken to his head

I’m telling you baby

I go up and I come down

(It's hard to be human)

Hard to be human again
