Same Old Story

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Oh, desperate, down on your knees Down for the count, begging "Please, won't you please" Lend me your ear for my old sailor soul And for God's sakes, kill me Last night, nothing for me Pockets of lint and a skeleton key Give me your bowl and you're hungry Well hell, here I be, and so [Chorus] It's the same old story, born inglorious (Ay!) So derogatory, born inglorious (Ay!) [Verse 2] Let me explain why the echoes surround me I don't know Phone in again with the questioning in And for God's sakes, save me Hello, tell me what was your name? Mrs. So-and-So You got in the van with the answer in hand And no-one knows [Chorus] It's the same old story, born inglorious (Ay!) So derogatory, born inglorious (Ay!) [Interlude] [Chorus] It's the same old story, born inglorious (Ay!) So derogatory, born inglorious (Ay!)
