Adam & the fish eyed poets - Purgatory city
what more… am I to inhale ….but for the stench of the sea …and the sickening anxiety what more ….is there to this town ….than sitting on the beach …not knowing who to turn to …. forced to react at 24 should have been an engineer but what do I know at least I know they don't own my soul but living with my parents sure kills the romance of it but oh .. here it comes and its stronger than I feared lts a freight train running through the muck between my ears it sweeps me off my feet and it hastens my breath but its only transitory so I'll tell my self *that I can slow down…and take a look around cos there ain't no need to worry down in purgatory city if I had a clue back at 22 I could've learned to sing in tune, I could've written a book yea I should have made an effort but its better late than never yea that's what they'll tell you when they know your spirit's down and you're too old to fuck around but you've got enough gas to be seen as a commodity yea they'll give you a title and they'll give you check and say turn up on time and we'll take care of the rest now I've got my own bike and I party on the weekend if I suck em off right… I can jump to middle management and find a piece of ass to sexually harass yea third world livin ain't all that bad so I'm sold out .. and fucking around there was never sense in trying in this deadbeat town I've got a comfortable life at 25 .. just had to stick around and do just about enough to survive....
