Story Behind the Song
Can an Englishman man sing the blues? No, but he can wail like any old eccentric. So here it is: a paen to a thorn in the flesh (that was a long time ago) in the key of RNB. Conceived in Autumn 1987 and delivered today by the Demolition Crew [that is the multi-talented Don Young, Danny Berk and Jerry Baker], who took a lame acoustic track and brought it to life in record time. Special thanks to Don, Danny and Jerry who put the big smile on my face and without whom this track was just another track: grovelling gratitude for your splendid contribution. (EJ)
Lyrics
I won't lay your crazy paving, I won't toe your crooked line
I won't sing Ain't Misbehaving, I won't be your valentine
You've got no heart and you got no soul.
You planned my fall right from the start: ain't there nothing you won't do to break my heart?
I used to be so well-appointed, lived the lifestyle of a king
And you were everything I wanted when I didn't need a thing
And now I've nothing but the memory of where it all went wrong.
You'd go to hell and heaven knows, ain't there nothing you won't do to save your soul?
When you're older, maybe wiser, you'll get time to make amends
You're never too old nor too smart to make the same mistake again
It's only luck that saved the devil from the deep blue sea.
You planned my fall right from the start: aint there nothing you won't do to break my heart?
You'd go to hell and heaven knows, ain't there nothing you won't do to save your soul?
You'll go to hell and heaven knows. ain't nothing going to save your Heart N Soul!
More tea, vicar? Ha ha ha ha ha ha...
