lirik lagu the fall - couldn't get ahead
couldn’t get ahead, i just couldn’t get ahead
come out of pub, the shop is closed
come out of pub, harry wants to know
when the next bus is, i said five or ten minutes
i had my change in my hands
the bus flashes past, my hands are caught
just couldn’t get ahead, i just couldn’t get ahead
couldn’t get ahead, just couldn’t get ahead
in a week, earned money for month, got all my jobs done
my eyelids were sick of it, gist was i could sleep for a day
but bad bills have no respect for a decent man’s rest
flopping on the doorstep, outlined in colour red
just couldn’t get ahead, i just couldn’t get ahead
couldn’t get ahead, just couldn’t get ahead
on an asiatic plane with wings not of the grain
toilet queue was endless, couldn’t get a beer
the hostesses were muslims
when i get in toilet, light flashes: “return to seat”
i feared withdrawal and i feared beer was making sludge of my head
couldn’t get ahead, i just couldn’t get ahead
couldn’t get ahead, i just couldn’t get ahead
now my problems are solved, it’s a remedy of old
i pretend i’m blind, you see, put on some armani clothes
and act like e.t
where i’m at is a cabbage patch, no longer strewn with weeds
have a ghandi at me
colour mags wish me well, no more, no get ahead
couldn’t get ahead, i just couldn’t get ahead
couldn’t get ahead, i just couldn’t get ahead
