India - The Book Club

Do you recognise the boy in the photograph?

Do you recognise the girl on the wall?

Walking down sauchiehalll with plans to get out of town

Now he cannot remember just how he had got here at all

Don’t you ever say his name in vain

He was many things but never vain

Looking now oh you would never realise

He could be a bastard in his time

Don’t you be deceived by those two empty eyes

That masquerade the fullness of his mind

Don’t you ever say his name in vain

He was many things but rarely vain

Don’t you ever think they don’t know how

Seen it all before and more and how
