She was an alcoholic artist

With too much makeup round her eyes

And I never knew her real name

She was sunbeam wrapped in lies

But I love her and I'm sorry

And that's all there is to say

It's like a fairy from the ancient time

And I hope it, I hope it stays that way

And when I woke up on your kitchen floor

With a headache made in hell

And the flowers that I gave you

Smiled at me from the window pane

Then I thought I must be crazy

Cause I'm feeling kinda good

And then when Satan helped me up again

It was then I, it was then I understood

Well I was never meant to be a good boy

I was never meant to go to school

Well it's guys like me who get somewhere

Cause everybody pitty a fool

Now it's payback for the rainy days

Now it's no more me and you

Well I got mine, you got yours babe

Now it's payback

Now it's me against the world

It was the last time I forgave you...
