Pretty Things - Itu2019s So Hard lyrics

Early in the morning, when I get out of bed She says, "Get up, honey, your eyes are really red It's those late nights that you're keeping with your pals." She says, "Get down to the pub, give me some ale." It's the reason that I must get a job She says, "Look in the papers, there's something for you in there." It's the reason that I feel it's a sin All the kids lining up, all the kids staying thin It's so hard I see a ship and it is coming down the Thames Up and down, up and down; here it comes again In my binoculars the captain looks sweet He has tattoos on his arm, and he's really neat It's so hard Down at the labour and there's nothing for me He has a cabin, and he's safe at sea Stowaway tanker is something to he; it's so hard Meanwhile, back in the kitchen there is something real dull She is standing in her curlers, and she's ready to blow A see-through apron 'round her waist and her thighs She says, "Give me one." I say no It's too hard
