Say, Billy Budd

So you think you should ?

Oh, everyone's laughing

Say, Billy Budd

So you think that you should ?

Everyone's laughing !

Since I took up with you

Things have been bad

Yeah, but now it's 12 years on

Now it's 12 years on

Yes, and I took up with you

I took my job application

Into town

Did you hear ? They turned me down

Yes, and it's all because of us

Oh, and what was in our eyes

Oh, what was in our eyes, yeah

I said, Billy Budd

I would happily lose

Both of my legs

I would lose both of my legs

Oh, if it meant you could be free

Oh, if it meant you could be free

(Don't leave us in the dark!)
