The Ballad of Sally versuri

The Ballad of Sally lyrics by Mekons

People say I’m frightening
It’s only ‘cos I’m scared
If I say something to hurt someone
Then I’ll cry alone for days

This is the ballad of my life
And how I will sing
La la la la la la la
Nothing nothing nothing

I don’t care what people say
Laughing up their sleeves
When you’ve had enough of me
I’ll be wise enough to leave

It always seems so easy
To overstep the mark
Cruel and lazy, vacant and vicious
Walking through Burgess Park

This is the ballad of my life
And how I will sing
La la la la la la la
Nothing nothing nothing

I always have the last the last word
But you can have the first
It’s welling up inside me
Until I’m fit to burst

Down here in Berry Street
Drinking Moskovskay neat
Kevin wrote this song for me
Now I’m singing it for you

This is the ballad of my life
And how I will sing
La la la la la la la
Nothing nothing nothing

This is the ballad of my life
It’s downhill all the way
La la la la la la la
Nothing more to say
