Couldn’t Get Ahead Lyrics

Couldnt get ahead
I just couldnt get ahead

Come out of pub, the shop is closed
Come out of pub, harry wants to know
When the next bus is
I said five or ten minutes
I had my change in my hands
The bus flashes past.
My hands are caught

Couldnt get ahead. I just couldnt get ahead.

In a week, earned money for month
Got all my jobs done
My eyelids were sick of it
Gist was I could sleep for a day?
But bad bills have no respect for a decent mans rest
Flopping on the doorstep
Outlined in color red

Couldnt get ahead. just couldnt get ahead.
Fall - Couldn’t Get Ahead - http://motolyrics.com/fall/couldn-t-get-ahead-lyrics.html
On an asiatic plane with wings not of the grain
Toilet queue was endless
Couldnt get a beer
The hostesses were muslims
When I get in toilet,
Light flashes: "return to seat."
I feared withdrawal
And I feared beer was making sludge of my head.

Couldnt get ahead. just couldnt get ahead.

Now my problems are solved
Its a remedy of old
I pretend Im blind you see
Put on some armani clothes
And act like et
Where Im at is a cabbage patch,
No longer strewn with weeds
Have a ghandi at me
Colour mags wish me well
No more, no get ahead.

Couldnt get ahead. just couldnt get ahead.
