Lay Back On Me Pal Lyrics

I met a man without a face
With knowledge of the human race
He smelt and felt and dealt with grace
Stupid enough to think that he'd seen it all
I saw his eyes as he saw mine
An optimism quite sublime
He furnished words to touch your heart
At least it seemed at the very start

Lay back on me pal I'm here
You won't have nothing to fear

I thought I'd seen those locks before
Tap tapping on a creaking door
I'd let him in at times of war
To take my mind off senseless misery
And as the recognition hit
Mugshots I'd seen began to fit
I said to him you worthless shitHugh Cornwell - Lay Back On Me Pal - http://motolyrics.com/hugh-cornwell/lay-back-on-me-pal-lyrics.html
He laughed and cried in a soliloquy

Lay back on me pal I'm here
You won't have nothing to fear

You won't fall over

So if you see him looking on
Please don't upset the setting sun
You'll only break a mood begun
A mood that's better left alone
If he approaches just give in
His life is better if lived in
Like all the others full of sin
Not to be judged but welcomed to your home

Lay back on me pal I'm here
You won't have nothing to fear
