Billy Bragg Little Time Bomb
One's of them off her food And the other's off his head And both of them are off down the boozer To drink a toast To the one that he hates most And she says there are no winner, only losers Well if there are no winners Then what is this he thinks As he watches her complete a lap of honour And he sits in the stands With his head in his hands And he thinks of all the things He'd like to bring down upon her Revenge will bring cold comfort in this darkest hour As the jukebox says 'It's All Over Now' And he stands and he screams What have I done wrong I've fallen in love with a little time bomb In public he's such a man He's punching at the walls with his bare and bloody hands He's screaming and shouting and acting crazy But at home he sits alone and he cries like a baby He holds your letters but he can't read them As he fights this loneliness you call freedom You said this would happen and you were not wrong I've fallen in love with a little time bomb
