Lyrics
Hello,
I am the ghost of Troubled Joe
Hung by his pretty white neck
Some eighteen months ago
I traveled to a mystical time zone
And I missed my bed and I soon came home
They said:
"There's too much caffeine in your blood stream
And a lack of real spice in your life"
I said:
"Leave me alone because I'm alright, Dad
Surprised to still be on my own"
Oh, but don't mention love
I'd hate the strain of the pain again
A rush and a push
And the land that we stand on is ours
It has been before, so it shall be again
And people who are uglier than you and I
They take what they need and just leave
Oh, but don't mention love
I'd hate the pain and the strain all over again
A rush and a push
And the land that we stand on is ours
It has been before, so why can't it be now?
And people who are weaker than you and I
They take what they want from life
Oh, but don't mention love
No, no, don't mention love
A rush and a push
And the land that we stand on is ours
Your youth may be gone but you're still a young man
So phone me, phone me
So phone me, phone me, phone me
Oh, I think I'm in love
Oh, I think I'm in love
Oh, I think I'm in love, I think I'm in love
Urrgh, I think I'm in lerv...
