Ugly Doris 04:10
Way down deep beneath the sea Is where you'll find the folk like me I've got a glowing bud and a gurning smile And more teeth than a crocodile Around the warm volcanic jets Life's as precious as it gets Here you don't need no disguise 'Cause we ain't seen by judging eyes If you don't like us you can go to Hell We deal with pressure real well It may be dark and it may be cold But it ain't never old Way on down out of sight Making culture in the night We don't need your approval to make us feel alright Imagine my surprise one night When I was hit by a blinding light And there in a shiny chrome tin can Was a hairy deep sea diver man He stopped and stared, then by and by He rose on up into the sky A few days later back he sank To put me in a little tank If you don't like us you can go to Hell We deal with pressure real well It may be dark and it may be cold But it ain't never old Way on down out of sight Making culture in the night We don't need your approval to make us feel alright Now, I don't know how much time has passed But now I'm looking through a wall of glass At a bunch of passing gawking creeps And the sign reads "Nightmares Of The Deep" In other tanks around the room Are all my buddies in the gloom Freaks and weirdos on display And I'm "Ugly Doris". How's your day? If you don't like us you can go to Hell We deal with pressure real well It may be dark and it may be cold But it ain't never old Way on down out of sight Making culture in the night We don't need your approval to make us feel alright

I broke the law today for the first time I broke the law today for the very first time Some girl tried to get her hands on you And me stuck in the middle, what could I do? I broke the law today for the first time I broke the law today for the first time I broke the law today for the very first time I saw your head in between her thighs And then I saw a bread knife between her eyes I broke the law today for the first time And now the city PD are going to come for me Oh, darling, don't you see, they'll never leave us be Every day I'll cry and pray Why did it have to be this way? I broke the law today for the first time I broke the law today for the very first time I'm not a bad person, you know I'm not But when it comes to love, you're all I've got I broke the law today for the first time I broke the law today for the first time I broke the law today for the very first time She had such a cute body and a pretty face I left her on the shelf in your trophy case When I broke the law today for the first time Now the CIA are going to look my way And the FBI are going to drop on by Tooth and nail they're going to drag me to jail And they'll leave me all alone with my misery I broke the law today for the first time I broke the law today for the very first time I'll always love you darling, you know it's true Even though you ripped my heart in two I broke the law today for the first and second time.

Here I stand on Buttermilk Hill Who can blame me, crying my fill And every tear could turn a mill Johnny has gone for a soldier Shule, shule, shule agra Only death can heal my woe For the lad of my heart from me did go Go thee thu mauverneen sloan When his orders came he could not stay To fife and drum he marched away My heart went too that fateful day Johnny has gone for a soldier Shule, shule, shule agra Only death can heal my woe For the lad of my heart from me did go Go thee thu mauverneen sloan I sold my rock, I sold my reel I even sold my spinning wheel To buy my love a sword of steel Johnny has gone for a soldier Shule, shule, shule agra Only death can heal my woe For the lad of my heart from me did go Go thee thu mauverneen sloan I'll dye my dress, I'll dye it red And round the world I'll beg my bread 'Till I find my love alive or dead Johnny has gone for a soldier Shule, shule, shule agra Only death can heal my woe For the lad of my heart from me did go Go thee thu mauverneen sloan

It's been seventeen days since you left here Or maybe it's been more And now you're back here again Beating down my door Well, you just stop the noise and disappear 'Cause it's too late now and there's nothing for you here You were never in control Like a coward you blamed me Moaning to your special friends Stella and J.D. You just go and drink another beer 'Cause it's too late now and there's nothing for you here The broken things about the place The purple rings about my face Every time you spoke my name I knew I'd be the one to blame I gave you everything And now I'm dead inside All the sadness, all the pain And all the tears I've cried But I'm not going to shed another tear 'Cause it's too late now and there's nothing for you here All the things you did and said Formed a tumour inside my head You left me broken on the ground Wishing that you would come around I gave you everything And now I'm dead inside All the sadness, all the pain And all the tears I've cried I don't want you now or ever Do you hear? It's too late now It's too late now It's too late now and there's nothing for you here
