Heart Full of Holes

You can tell me your troubles, Ill listen for free

My regulars trust me, seems

You can come and see Uncle to get through the week

Leave your pledges with me to redeemSome folk sell their bodies for ten bob a go

Politicians go pawning their souls

Which doesnt make me look too bad, dont you know

Me with my heart full of holesAll my yesterdays broken, a watch with no face

All battered and old

Bits of the movement all over the place

And a heart full of holesA heart full of holes

Heart full of holes

A heart full of holes

Heart full of holesBrass knuckles and banjos are out on the town

At the knees-up in Teddy Boys Row

The gold block and tackle tells the time upside down

Rock n roll, well, I dont knowDead peoples wedding gifts, walk out the door

A clarinet squeals to be free

Accordions hop from the shelves to the floor

Start playing their polkas to meTheres a ringing of bells, a dunderheads curse

Fingers are pointing at you

And you take work in hell, be glad its not worse

And you get to the back of the queueHandcuffs and hunting knives clang on the bars

Air pistols shoot out the lights

Ive a whole wailing wall of electric guitars

Could shatter the windows down Brick Lane tonightIf one of us dies, love, I think Ill retire

See my boys and my beautiful girls

Garden of Eden, no gates or barbed wire

Who knows, maybe gates made of pearlsWell, if we go to heaven, and some say we dont

But if theres a reckoning day

Please God, Ill see You and maybe I wont

Ive a bag packed to go either wayRedeeming your pledge, dear, Ill keep it for you

Its not gonna go anywhere

But your soul, your soul, that is not what I do

Theres not a lot I can do thereI remember the officers watch in my hand

Repair it or die I was told

Its a wonder to me, I still dont understand

Why I ever survived to be oldWith a heart full of holes

Heart full of holes

A heart full of holes

Heart full of holesA heart full of holes

Heart full of holes

A heart full of holes

Heart full of holes
