 Sitting in a mess still undressed 
As the kettle whistle blows 
Paper back novelette still open 
And the door is closed. 
You got a real sick mind 
You write a column for the times 
For all the lovers gone blind 
Who are looking for a sign. 
And when the night is over 
And the drugs are gone 
All you've got is your four leaf clover 
You keep inside your coat 
And when the night is over 
And the drugs are gone 
You feel the world is getting colder 
You got no one to hold. 
Six pages down and she's lighting up 
Her train wreck soul 
She was abandoned by her lover 
Left by the road 
So apalling scrawling those bullshit words 
It's thirsty work 
She'll stumble down to the boozer 
Just to have a flirt. 
You got a real sick mind 
You write a column for the times 
For all the lovers gone blind 
Who are looking for a sign. 
And when the night is over 
And the drugs are gone 
All you've got is your four leaf clover 
You keep inside your coat 
And when the night is over 
And the drugs are gone 
You feel the world is getting colder 
You got no one to hold 
You got no one to hold. 
You got a real sick mind 
You got a real sick mind. 
And when the night is over 
And the drugs are gone 
All you've got is your four leaf clover 
You keep inside your coat 
And when the night is over 
And the drugs are gone 
You feel the world is getting colder 
You got no one to hold 
You got no one to hold 
You got no one to hold 
You got no one to hold.
