Paul Heaton - He’s Got What I Had lyrics

Artist: Paul Heaton

album: Manchester Calling (Double Deluxe Version)


If he looks like he's not sleeping
He ain't wiped around his mouth now
Cannot tell his east from west
Neither tell his north from south
Don't you take him to no doctor
Don't tell the nurse he's feeling bad
Further down the road you'll see
He's got a load of what I had
If he seems drunk at nine in the morning
If his eyes, they are glazed, they are red
Don't wave your hand in front of his face
Just put him straight back to bed
He's got what I had when I shaved off all my hair
When I walked close to the cliff edge, still closer to despair
He's got what I had, he's inconsolable and blue
Ask him what he's got, he's got you
If you see somebody walking
Looks like she's sleeping on the streets
No doubt, you might feel sympathetic
Wonder how she came to be
Likelihood she's lost her house now
Don't see her daughter or her son
There's a weight on all our shoulders
But this one's carrying a ton
If her temperature is rising
If her pulse is hard to find
One tune going round and round in her skull
Presley's always on my mind
She's got what I had when I shaved off all my hair
When I walked close to the cliff edge, still closer to despair
She's got what I had, she's inconsolable and blue
Ask her what she's got, she's got you
Romance comes in every form and every size
Holds you closely, looks you in the eyes
Squeezes tighter, will not let you go
Face you can't recall and name you do not know
They've got what we had when we shaved off all our hair
When we walked close to the cliff edge, still closer to despair
They've got what we had, they're inconsolable and blue
Ask them what they've got, they've got you
