The Soft Boys - Amputated lyrics

I've been waitin' for the sun to shine on you 'Cause I wonder what the light is gonna do It's so hard to recognize When you look into her eyes And you realize the eyes look back at you I've been wondering about what they could say To the people who come 'round you every day You can hardly hear a word Of an angel or a bird But I know they're gonna come out when you play Some people look very long Some people live in a song they can't sing They been amputated out at school Amputated by their fools Amputated by the clothes they wear There's not even a half a person there Amputated by the way they love Amputated by the gods above Amputated by the things they do There's hardly anything left of you I've been wondering what you're gonna do with me Will it last until we fall into the sea Since you're gone I understand If the language of the hand But the fingers still look different to me Some people look very straight Even their hearts' bitter hate of the world They been amputated by the things they do Amputated they just look at you Amputated by the way they wear There's not even half a person there Amputated every single day Amputated right there in the maze Amputated funny I still feel The places I had when I took the wheel I'm amputated and I want to disappear
