Hope
Here comes Tommy and he's late again Whose that's leaving with his new girlfriend I'd bet he's only met her and he doesn't even know her name He doesn't mind, he says it's just for now And he's not taking any marriage vows So why don't we have a good time any place any how? From what I see there's still a little hope That's if we don't hang from too much rope Oh Dear, I'd like a boy from the housing estate High on hope and dreaming all this game Know's he's on his own got to get out 'fore it gets too late SongtexteHe's looking good, the best seen for days He's tellin' people how he's changed his way He's given up drinkin' and he's down to three smokes a day From what I see there's still a little hope That's if we don't hang from too much rope From what I see there's still a little hope That's if we don't hang from too much rope Hey Tommy, how ya feeling up there You're looking good with the cork-screw hair And in you're best khaki to your suit Tellin' everybody all about the crocodile boots Told 'em you can't lose A social mover always in the right places Got all the contacts knows the latest faces Got the flavour of it, now it's walkin' in other taste But every night he gets the urge to go West And now it's party he's a V.I.P guest He loves the life he leads and he leads the life he loves best From what I see there's still a little hope That's if we don't hang from too much rope From what I see there's still a little hope That's if we don't hang from too much rope From what I see there's still a little hope That's if we don't hang from too much rope From what I see there's still a little hope That's if we don't hang from too much rope Aus Songtexte Mania
