Little Time Bomb — текст песни (Billy Bragg)

One of thems off her food

And the other ones off his head

And both of them are off down the boozer

To drink a toast

To the one that he hates most

And she says there are no winners, only losers



Well if there are no winners

Then what is this he thinks

As he watches her complete a lap of honour

And he sits in the stands with his head in his hands

And he thinks of all the things

Hed like to bring down upon her



Revenge will bring cold comfort in this darkest hour

As the juke box says its all over now

And he stands and he screams

What have I done wrong

Ive fallen in love with a little time bomb



In public hes such a man

Hes punching at the walls with his bare and bloody hands

Hes screaming and shouting and acting crazy

But at home he sits alone and he cries like a baby



He holds your letters but he cant read them

As he fights this loneliness that you call freedom

You said this would happen and you were not wrong

Ive fallen in love with a little time bomb
