singing loins – nail it back together lyrics
nail it back together
to keep out the weather.
cos it got broke again,
this old heart again.
but i’ve got a big old box
down in the cellar,
where i keep all my stuff
for patching it up.
i’ve got rivets and rags,
i’ve got hooks and cement,
i’ve got leather and glue
and a rusty old screw.
pull on a clean white shirt,
drag myself back to work,
looking good as new.
no-one will know.
it doesn’t show,
does it?
hammer it back together
to keep out the weather.
i got careless again,
with this old heart again.
but i’ve got a big old box
down in the cellar,
where i keep all my stuff
for bodging it up.
i’ve got canvas and tar,
i’ve got cat gut and wire.
mud, sticks & stones
and some needles of bone.
pull on a clean white shirt,
drag myself back to work,
looking good as new.
no-one will know.
it doesn’t show,
does it?
i got screwed up newspaper
for packing the holes,
polystyrene & sandbags
& lead that i stole.
pull on a big warm coat,
drag myself down the road.
smiling at you.
no-one will ever know.
it doesn’t show,
does it?
