Same Old Story - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

Oh, desperate, down on your knees

Down for the count, begging "Please, won't you please"

Lend me your ear for my old sailor soul

And for God's sakes, kill me

Last night, nothing for me

Pockets of lint and a skeleton key

Give me your bowl and you're hungry

Well hell, here I be, and so

It's the same old story, born inglorious (Ay!)

So derogatory, born inglorious (Ay!)

Let me explain why the echoes surround me

I don't know

Phone in again with the questioning in

And for God's sakes, save me

Hello, tell me what was your name?

Mrs. So-and-So

You got in the van with the answer in hand

And no-one knows

It's the same old story, born inglorious (Ay!)

So derogatory, born inglorious (Ay!)

It's the same old story, born inglorious (Ay!)

So derogatory, born inglorious (Ay!)
