Well she crept back in the house
at half past three
shook her head to see him
snoring in his sleep
If he really loved me she said
I wouldn't have to be so mean
He's a heap of junk that
pours from his top drawer
He sometimes likes to spread it
out around the floor
it's evidence of what he was like
he likes to remember when
Sha la la sha la la
the end is growing near
and we're treading water now
and holding back our tears
and the day is rising
we're singing sha la la la la
In a minute it will all be coming
down and they know it now
but no one makes a sound
it's such a shame to
ruin this bright lazy sunny day
Sha la la sha la la
the end is growing near
and we're treading water now
and holding back our tears
and the day is rising
we're singing sha la la la la
My my the cruelest lies are often
told without a word my my
the kindest truths are often spoken
never heard
she said you've been pushing me
like I was a sore tooth you can't
respect me cause I've done so much
free he said well I hate that
it's come to this but baby I was
doing fine how do you think that
I survived the other twenty
five before you
Sha la la sha la la li la
the end is growing near
and we're treading water now
and holding back our tears
and the day is rising
wer're singing sha la la la la
