D-DU-UDU
 You are watching  a programme for  exactly  an hour
 All of these hours they will add  up to a day
 You will sit  there till they're done now there are 24  to play
 And there are rims  around your eyelballs by the 7th  or the 8th
 But if you go  to sleep tonight you will be older  when you wake
 And you say one  man is the parachute and the other  is the knife that cuts
 the brakes
First  we were born then we  ran slowly  out of luck
 You are  still not Charles Bukowski and i am  not Diane Cluck
 And i would suck  the life from you if there was any left  to suck
 And i would love  you if you told me there was something  there to love
 I would marry  you for money
 I would marry  you for money
 I would marry  you for money  if it stuck
 I would marry  you for money but i don't  suppose you'll ever have enough
 Man  on the screen he has done more  in a minute
 Than  you have achieved in your whole entire  life
 When you  finally realise i was the best thing  you had init
 We'll be closing  up your eyelids on the bed  on which you die
 And i'll be sorry  if it happens to you
Sorry  if it happens to you
Sorry  if it happens  to you but
 They say one  life is the cancer and another  is the blade that
 makes the cut
24  for every year  that we have slipped
 Day by day into the neck  of the abyss
 And i am 24  today i don't  believe i'll sit
 Through another  year of this while you are sewing  up your lips
 And i'll be  sorry that you happened to me
Sorry  that you happened to me
Sorry  that you happened  to me  but
 They say that one  man is the accident the  other is the hand that stops the
blood
 And i am looking  for the other one,  for the hand to stop the blood
