Lyrics The Stranglers

The Stranglers

Ugly

I could have read

A poem called

Ozymandias

To her instead

I lived for the moment

It was a futile

Gesture anyway

I was here

And she was here

And being broad

Of mind and hips

We did the only

Thing possible

I guess I shouldn't have strangled her to death

But I had to go to work and she had laced my coffee with acid

Normally I wouldn't have minded

But I'm allergic to sulfuric acid

Besides she had acne

And if you've got acne well I apologize for disliking it intensely.

But it's understandable that ugly people have got complexes

I mean it seems to me that ugly people don't have a chance

It's only the children or the fucking wealthy who tend to be good looking

An ugly fart

Attracts a good looking

Chick, if he's got money

An ugly fart

Attracts a good looking

Chick if he's got money

An ugly fart

Attracts a good looking

Chick

If he's got money

It's different for Jews somehow

I'd like to see

A passionate

Film between

The two ugliest

People in the world.

When I say ugly

I don't mean rough looking

I mean hideous

Don't tell me that

Aesthetics are

Subjective, you

Just know the truth

When you see it

Whatever it is

Muscle

Power, muscle

Power, muscle

Power, muscle

Power
