Mark Seymour - Sad Songs lyrics

I saw her face in a crowd She was hiding in the corner of the room I could see the monkey on her back I saw her face in a crowd She was hiding in the corner of the room I could see the monkey on her back It was laughing in the gloom And just beneath her skin Nobody could see Shadows within she said "Do you remember me? But I'm burnt out and there's no feeling And there's bitter music in my head Bet I've tasted more than you could ever handle Sing a sad song", she said "Sing a sad song", she said "It's been a long time coming But I'm cold blooded in defeat But now I've scorned the main I trusted I'm the servant of deceit But I'm nobody's ball and chain No one's draggin' me around I can go anywhere, I could have a life to live Have a life to live... But I'm burnt out and there's no feeling And there's bitter music in my head Bet I've tasted more than you could ever handle Sing a sad song", she said "Sing a sad song", she said She's heading somewhere Somewhere I have never been Who can stop her now She's riskin' everything Swallowed by the night I wonder where she's goin' to Where she's goin' to "I'm burnt out and there's no feeling And there's bitter music in my head Bet I've tasted more than you could ever handle Sing a sad song", she said "Sing a sad song", she said
