Lyrics:

From way far across the sea

Came an eritrean maiden she

Had a one track mind and eyes for me

Half blinded in the war



With a pale young Anglican

Who said he'd help her all he can

Showed her Jesus and his little un-holy friend

She had no mind to please him

Just say 'ta-ra' and leave him behind



There's a little boy in a stairwell who says

'I hate people like you'

Got matches & cable TV half of less than 50p

We all clambered over the balcony

Banging on the window waking Steve

Bringing with a true love his un-holy friend

If you really need it

You just won't leave it behind



So baby please kill me

Oh baby don't kill me

But don't bring that ghost round to my door

I don't wanna see him anymore



Please kill me

Oh baby don't kill me

Just don't bang on about yesterday

I wouldn't know about that anyway



Monkey asked the mouse before

If she loved anybody more than he

It turns you into stone

Now I'm reversing down the lonely street

To a cheap hotel when I can meet the past

And pay it off and keep it sweet

It's sweet like nothing no

It's just like nothing at all



Yes I've seen you there

How could I help but stare

It rips the heart out off your baby

Now I've taken far too much to see

Or think or touch what's real

I'm stranded on this street that

Paved my only way home



You really need it oh

You just won't leave it behind



So baby please kill me

Oh baby don't kill me

But don't bring that ghost round to my door

I don't wanna see him anymore



Please kill me

Oh baby don't kill me

But don't bang on about yesterday

I wouldn't know about that anyway

Oh no



He got nothing he got nothing at all
