Letra Same thing twice John Wesley Harding

Same thing twice

Hes done it all a million times
The gags, the repartee, the little crimes
Every audience is special and that goes for you
He looks into your eyes again
He never does it but he tries again
That old boy lost look could bruise you black and blue
Everybodys looking for a single row so they can be alone
Cos every time the lights go up, theyd rather be at home
I looked through all the wanted ads with a fine toothed comb
And all I came up with was another evening
Doing the same thing twice
Thats what I was doing

All the drinks that hes been sinking
Never ask him what hes thinking
Every audience is unique and that goes for you
Dead or alive youre coming with me
Because everythings my cup of tea
Thats why Ive got a gold suit and some green italian shoes
Everybody says they had, but we all know they didnt
Its impossible to be a little bit pregnant
Give me the whole fruit cos Im getting just a segment
And all I end up with is another evening
Doing the same thing twice

Well it hurts so bad to get this stoned
By ugly looking bureaucrats with ears like headphones
Reading the sun, sunday sport, s.ideal home, womans own
Looks like youre on your own

Bring me on the magic sponge
My dying gasp, my final lunge
Its all over now bar the dance
Do it now but dont get caught
Ive been having third thoughts
They can be so clever, only when the script demands
You cluttered up the sky now so you cant follow any star
Someones sitting next to you in an empty cinema
No-one wants to end up face down in a reservoir
And I dont wanna end up with another evening
Saying the same thing twice
