Put all your sadness in a song When the melody's clear And the meaning is silly Remember when I said You don't belong I am younger than you And that I always will be Down to the very last straw We'll be making it Or breaking it Words they fall Like dominoes And girls In the throws of anguish Full of scorn The day you were born Hanging on like a saviour Faithful onto yourself I believe anything you say I once had a picture of the past It was crowded with shame And was generally scary Who was that boy behind the mask Did you ever come clean
And which part did you bury I've ever since been learning your trade When I thought you were On holiday Words they fall Like dominoes And girls In the throws of anguish Full of scorn The day you were born I believe anything you say Anything you say Words they fall Like dominoes And girls In the throws of anguish Full of scorn The day you were born Hanging on like a saviour Faithful onto yourself I believe anything you say Put all your sadness in a song When the melody's clear And the meaning is silly
