Dirty Pretty Things - 9 Lives lyrics

May the Lord have mercy on me since I kicked him in the teeth I said bye bye sinning days - fare thee well Could have stopped at number two But there was so much left to do Does cheating on her send you straight to hell? Phone wakes me up at three, a naked body lies next to me Who slipped her the mickey? - bye bye Let's all drink them away, we'll try another day Don't know any other way - La la la As for life number four - wasted in the arms of who*es Farewell to innocence, fare thee well Smoked my fifth life into black clouds Not a stitch left to be proud of Bye bye to these five lives, fare thee well Six little lines for six dirty lives Talking rubbish and scrapping through the night Farewell innocence fare thee well Let's all drink them away, try again another day Don't know any other way - La la la Seventh life making friends with God But he just wouldn't call me back Bye bye redemption, fare thee well Eight lives count down the days, that colossal fall from grace Back to Pentonville to be alone One lonely life on its knees cursing all he sees And praying down the barrel of a gun Let's all drink them away, try again another day Don't know any other way - La la la Let's all drink them away, try again another day Don't know any other way - La la la
