miss emily brown - the diary of amy briggs lyrics
i never swore until this godd-mned war
twelve hour shifts and sirens all night long
i work a ten to ten alongside iris
she tells me all about her escapades
broad-minded lady, she had twins at twenty
she never married, she said two was plenty
she diagnosed me s-xual starvation
read all about it in m-ss observation
what you need now
is a really good bad habit
ask the war-sister
she’s an old hat at it
i never smoked until this godd-mned war
sit in the torch-light, hear the gun-fire
i work a six to six and home to the private
he’s got a week long leave, i don’t think i’ll survive it
he lights up into everything he sees
me and our daughters sitting one, two, three
he burns his dinner and a week long ration
and this old waltz is going out of fashion
what you need now
is a really good bad habit
ask the war-sister
she’s an old hat at it
i never drank until this godd-mned war
a pommia, the strongest drink i know to order
on my day off i do the wash and black lead
today i take the girls to see a show instead
and in the darkness of the odeon i let it go
i yelled and cried when president wilson’s wife died
i reconcile to do the things i am accused of
stop turning down every man like i am used to
what you need now
is a really good bad habit
ask the war-sister
she’s an old hat at it
