Lyrics:
Where do you go?
When you're out on your own
And there's nobody home
No one to phone
And your mother is on holiday in California
You can't bring your mother home
People are strange
and its too much to take
They lie and they fake
And they cry and they rage
And they don't wash their hands
They could give you salmonella
No wonder you're so afraid
Dave, Dave
I will not deny that you are crazy
Hey!, You were still a good man
But you take, and you take, and you take and you take
People just don't understand
That you're a broken man.
You used to be rich
You used to be cool
You used to be smart
Nobody's fool
But you left all your money
You have no coat-umbrella
And they found you in the rain
Your children are old
And they've met all their goals
And you're proud of them all
Sometimes they call
And they apologise if they haven't called more often
You tell them you understand
Dave, Dave
I will not deny that you are crazy
Hey!, You were still a good man
But you take, and you take, and you take and you take
People just don't understand
That you're a broken man.
Where do you go?
Where you're out on your own
And there's nobody home
No one to phone
And your mother is on holiday in California
You can't bring your mother home
Dave, Dave
I will not deny that you are crazy
Hey!, You were still a good man
But you take, and you take, and you take and you take
People just don't understand
That you're a broken man.
so frustrating that all of us Europeans can't hear this... :(
