Richard Hell And The Voidoids - The Plan lyrics

I withdrew from the street and all humanlike zones. I'd had it, I'd had it - I was mush to the bones. I covered the windows, I was taking no calls Then I thought for a month inside the alien walls. Now I know oh They don't tell you so. Now I know, oh They don't tell you so. Now I know. Oh They don't tell you so but I can recall it all. I called up a girl I'd known for so many years. I'd seen her in shock, I'd seen the last of her tears. I admired her style from her toes to her brain - She accepted my plan and so she caught the next train. Now I know oh They don't tell you so. Now I know, oh They don't tell you so. Now I know. Oh They don't tell you so but I can recall it all. We would secretly smile inside our surgical masks But we were serious too - we accomplished our ask. The schedule was followed, a daughter was born. And so the mother departed - I was left with her form. Now I know oh They don't tell you so. Now I know, oh They don't tell you so. Now I know. Oh They don't tell you so but I can recall it all. Her education's begun - I'm intent on success. Her breathtaking beauty it brings out my best. I once knew true love - she won't know another. Life is renewed, my little girl is my lover. Now I know oh They don't tell you so. Now I know, oh They don't tell you so. Now I know. Oh They don't tell you so but I can recall it all.
