frequency (uk) - bills lyrics

[intro]
times are hard
so very hard
i can’t make it
times are hard
so very hard
i can’t take it

[verse 1]
bills
i can’t take anymore
bills
can’t even answer my door
my bills they get so high
they wanna touch the sky
here comes another, through my letter box
don’t it make you wanna cry?
well i’m tough, but the going is rough
and i’m rough, but i’ve just had enough

[chorus]
now don’t it make you wanna cry
say, now, now, don’t it make you wanna die
hey tell me, don’t it make you wanna cry
hey tell me, don’t it make you wanna die
[verse 2]
now how can a man go to church and pray
when his belly’s empty from day+to+day
the say to live clean, stay on the scene
but it ain’t no comfort to a hunger machine
“i make love, not war”
that’s what the preacher said
but how can i love when my body won’t stay?
my limbs are weak, and my woman’s half+dead
ain’t got the strength to crawl into bed
now i’m a lovin’ man, don’t you get me wrong
but the guys who make wars are all big and strong
they get bills too, they know what to do
they got the power to pass them to me and you

[chorus]
now don’t it make you wanna cry
say, now, now, don’t it make you wanna die
say, tell me, don’t it make you wanna cry
hey now, now, don’t it make you wanna die

[bridge]
here comes another
another and another
here comes another
another and another
here comes another
another and another
here comes another
another and another
[verse 3]
bills, bills, go away
please come back some other day
when i find me a job and earn some pay
then you can knock on my door, ’til then stay away

[bridge]
stay away!
stay away!
stay away!
stay away!

[verse 4]
a year ago, i was a wealthy man
then the power that be, he played his hand
the tax man came, he made his claim
i stated my case, he said “well, that’s a shame”
so he took my house, and he took my car
throws my assets in the bank, even took my guitar
when i protested, he’d ruined my life
he said, “be thankful, i spared you your wife”
now about being thankful, kinda hard to say
he mighta done me a favour had he took her away
see she’s the big spender that caused my plight
now i’m down and out, she spent the other night
asked her reason, i was shocked as h+ll
she smiled and said, “i got goods to sell”
well, i’m not small+minded, i’m a man of the world
but i couldn’t believe the words i heard
that woman’s prepared to go and sell herself
while i’m still a big fool [?] on the shelf
now i found a good woman, my money’s gone
all that is left in my head
is this pain
[bridge]
it goes on and on and on, in my head
it goes on and on and on, this pain
it goes on and on and on, need some bread
it goes on and on and on, i’m goin’ insane

[chorus]
now don’t it make you wanna cry
hey tell me, don’t it make you wanna die
say, now, now, don’t it make you wanna cry
hey tell me, don’t it make you wanna die
say, now, now, don’t it make you wanna cry
hey tell me, don’t it make you wanna die
say, now, now, don’t it make you wanna cry
hey tell me, don’t it make you wanna die

[verse 5]
i got the gas bill, the grocery bill, electricity too
this mornin’ little johnny said, “oh dad, i need some shoes”
there is the tax bill, the doctor bills
good lord, what can i do
even the welfare who should be helping me out
turned around and billed me too

[outro]
bills!
bills!
bills!
bills!
bills!
can’t stop talking about ’em
bills!
i’m even walkin’ on ’em
bills!
don’t want your asylum
bills!
drive me [groaning], yeah
bills!
help me somebody
bills!
help, help me somebody
bills!
i need some help
bills!
