Billy Bragg Richard Lyrics

Richard Lyrics

Richard belongs to jayne
And jayne belongs to yesterday
How can I go on
When every alpha particle hides a neon nucleus

Neil belongs to love
And love belongs to no man
How can he go on
When no-one answers the adverts in his mind? 

Chorus:
There will be parties, there will be fun
There will be prizes for everyone
And hey, hey, hey, here comes richard
There will be ladies dressed in lace
I just want to see her face
When hey, hey, hey, here comes richard

You helped me build this bed
But you won’t help me sleep in it
When I fall between you and the wall
Our titanic love affair sails on the morning tide

Chorus

I really love you style
Did you read it in the look and learn? 
How long can we go on? 
Do you think I only love you
Because you sleep with other boys

Chorus
