Psycho street

Richard Thompson

Composição de: Richard Thompson
A man sits down to write a letter, but instead he writes a book 
The book begins - 
Dear Sir, I don't if you're interested but you're wife is a whore 

A man gets on a train and proceeds to take all his clothes off 
He begins to play with himself, and he says 
"In my country, this is definitely not offensive" 

A man pours petrol through his neighbour's letterbox 
And throws in a match 
The house is engulfed in flames 
As the neighbours jump from the upstairs window 
He films the whole thing on video 
He plays it back to them later in hospital 
"Things have been pretty dull at home without you" he says 

A man pushes a lawn mower two hundred miles on his knees 
To the tomb of the unknown gardener 
"Great one" he cries "I've done my penance. I bring my offering. 
Grant me, grant me, grant me, pest-free roses" 

Psycho Street, friendly people down on Psycho Street 
Good neighbours down on Psycho Street 
And if you need a hand, need a friend, we understand 
And if you need a pal, we'll be there, anyhow 
Psycho Street, Psycho Street, Psycho Street 

A man stakes his neighbour's cat to the barbecue and turns on the gas 
"Now are you going to talk" he says 
"Or am I going to have to get nasty?" 

A man has an inflatable doll made 
That looks exactly like his wife 
He murders his wife, dissolves her body in acid 
And marries the doll 
Three years later, he leaves her for another doll 

A man hands his son a brick and says 
"Son, throw this brick through the greenhouse next door" 
The boy does 
The boy next door throws one back 
It hits the man on the head and mortally wounds him 
"Ah well" he says, as his life blood trickles away 
"Boys will be boys" 

A thoughtful woman sends her best friend a parcel 
Inside, it says, is a free sample, full body beauty treatment 
But really it contains acids and chemicals 
When her friend tries it, her hair falls out, 
Her face is wrinkled and her body scarred 
The thoughtful woman turns to her husband and winks 
And says "Pre-emptive strike" 

Psycho Street, friendly people down on Psycho Street 
Good neighbours down on Psycho Street 
If you need a hand, need a friend, we understand 
And if you need a pal, we'll be there, anyhow 
Oh Psycho Street, Psycho Street, Psycho Street 
Psycho Street, Psycho Street, Psycho Street
