I said a-one, two, a-one, two, three, four Didn't see you fall Didn't hear you call Screaming at the overdose Laughing at the overdose Didn't I hear you scream From an amyl nitrate dream Saw you in a crashing car Laughing in a crashing car But with Marianne Faithfull driving It's no surprise She's got everything to live for 'Cause she died a thousand times Just take a good look at the situation Merchandised Didn't somebody say She'll come back again someday Never saw her face again She never was the same again 27 years ago You should've seen that black magic show She never came back again
She never came back again But when Marianne Faithfull comes to town Surprise She' got dreams and sins in her pockets She's go all they can buy Just take a good look at the stories told And say goodnight Yeah... Didn't I hear you fall Didn't I see you call Laughing at your name again Laughing at your name again Didn't somebody say Now I believe in yesterday Take it all any way you can Look at it any way you can But with Marianne Faithfull driving It's no surprise She's got everything to live for 'Cause she died a thousand times Just take a look at the songs they sing And you'll know why
