[00:16.07]I was puzzled by a dream, it stayed with me all day in 1995
[00:22.01]
[00:29.38]My brother had confessed he was gay
[00:31.84]
[00:35.06]It took the heat off me for a while
[00:39.81]He stood up with a sailor friend
[00:42.51]Made it known upon my sisters wedding day
[00:48.44]
[01:00.80]I got married in a rush to save a kid from being deported
[01:06.64]Now she's in love
[01:09.27]
[01:10.77]I was so touched, I was moved to kick the crutches
[01:16.84]From my crippled friend
[01:19.40]
[01:20.15]She was not impressed cause I cured her on the Sabbath
[01:27.16]I went to confess
[01:29.42]
[01:30.35]When she saw the funny side, we introduced my child bride
[01:38.98]To whisky and gin
[01:40.35]To whisky and gin
[01:41.92]
[01:52.01]The priest in the booth had a photographic memory
[01:57.48]For all he had heard
[02:00.48]And he took all of my sins and he wrote a pocket novel called
[02:08.57]The State I Am In
[02:10.95]And so I gave myself to God
[02:13.82]There was a pregnant pause before he said ok
[02:19.71]
[02:21.15]Now I spend my day turning tables round In Marks & Spencer's
[02:27.37]They don't seem to mind
[02:33.12]
[02:35.20]I gave myself to sin
[02:37.20]I gave myself to Providence
[02:38.70]And I've been there and back again
[02:42.95]
[02:44.00]The state that I am in
[02:45.81]
[02:48.17]I gave myself to sin
[02:49.42]
[02:50.42]I gave myself to Providence
[02:54.39]And I've been there and back again
[02:57.17]The state that I am in
[03:01.45]
[03:08.38]Oh love of mine, would you condescend to help me
[03:12.35]
[03:13.91]Cause I'm stupid and blind
[03:15.35]
[03:17.55]Oh and desperation is the Devil's work, it is the folly of a boy's empty mind
[03:25.73]
[03:28.06]Now I'm feeling dangerous, riding on city buses for a hobby is sad
[03:35.09]
[03:37.66]Why don't you lead me to a living end
[03:40.77]I promised that I'd entertain my crippled friend
[03:45.41]
[03:47.29]My crippled friend
[03:48.85]
[03:51.66]I gave myself to sin
[03:53.67]I gave myself to Providence
[03:57.07]And I've been there and back again
[04:00.51]The state that I am in
[04:02.58]
[04:04.82]I gave myself to sin
[04:06.81]I gave myself to Providence
[04:09.31]
[04:09.93]And I've been there and back again
