Big Audio Dynamite - Melancholy Maybe lyrics

"I ask you to sing a nightsingin' I want you to sing like people used to sing I want you to sing like" "Big Audio Dynamite" "They're like co*kroaches all the time" See that guy over there, he's as crazy as hell Spending his time inside a wishing well Gazing at water, saying what if I... And he's still there gazing in six months time He's got a girl that's crazy 'bout him But her heart is locked away with him He doesn't realise that he holds the key To unlock the pain and set them free But that's alright, a little melancholy maybe That's a part of you see On a one way ticket, headed to Nowheresville I know 'cause I've already been Heard about Sister Elly was a party girl Now she've seen the troubles of a future world Tellin' everybody when the bombs gonna drop And she's packed in a job at the corner shop She joined the church, help to get away Now she sees the Lord every time she prays Asks for forgiveness for all our sins But when she sits down she doesn't know where to begin But that's alright, a little melancholy maybe That's a part of you see On a one way ticket, headed to Nowheresville I know 'cause I've already been A little bit of la la la la love A little bit of la la la la love A little bit of la la la la love A little bit of la la la la love Where d'ya think you're goin' You ain't goin' nowhere Ain't no way of knowing If you've not been there But that's alright, a little melancholy maybe That's a part of you see On a one way ticketm headed to Nowheresville I know 'cause I've already been That's alright, a little melancholy maybe That's a part of you see On a one way ticket, headed for Nowheresville I know 'cause I've already been Yeah, I know 'cause I've already been That's right, I know 'cause I've already been
