Everyone's laughing [Verse 2] Since I took up with you Things have been bad Yeah, but now it's twelve years on Now it's twelve years on Yes, and I took up with you [Verse 3] I took my job application into town Did you hear they turned me down? Yes, and it's all because of us Oh, and what was in our eyes Oh, what was in our eyes, yeah [Verse 4] I said, Billy Budd, I would happily lose both of my legs I would lose both of my legs Oh, if it meant you could be free Oh, if it meant you could be free [Outro] (Don't leave us in the dark!)
