Lyrics Tubeway Army

Tubeway Army

Jo The Waiter

Jo the waiter worked for me

Serving wine in basement bars

Only mad men ever stay. "Got no time."

If you're mindless please take mine

Jo the waiter held me close

Behing the door marked "gentlemen"

Just for now that's all I need

Won't someone call me friend?

Long gone. I recall good times.

I must confess I cried

We burned out and the line went dead

At six o'clock I felt so alone

I crawled inside. "Where else to go?"

Could be dead for all you know

Every I died for you

Valium boys with painted eyes

Young man need love special

I don't think I want it at all

Long gone. I recall good times.

I must confess I cried

Me I've retired to a back street flat

Picture "eyes in a cold steel frame"

The freaks arrive

Broken needles and blood

"What you on man to get those eyes?"

It's very touching I'm so close to me

False smiles I've rehearsed for days

Come inside you won't know I'm wrong

Give me your heart I'm so quickly gone
