Some Body - Robyn Hitchcock, The Egyptians

Somebody wants to talk

But somebody doesn’t want to hear

Somebody says you shouldn’t worry

It’s a waste of time trying to get out of here

So you cry your life away

Baby, you just cry

Somebody tries too hard

Like a rear wheel spinning in a rut

There’s a clock ticking on an empty beach

There’s a girl sleeping in an empty hut

You’re so full you’re coming out your ears

Baby, you’re so full

Is there anything left to spare of Somebody walks around

Blindfolded with his hands tied behind his back

Somebody says it makes no difference if it’s in the pink

Or in the red or in the black

So you cry your life away

Baby, you just cry
