Books on the Bonfire - Live at the Town and Country Club, London, 1986

Here we go, doing nothing again
You can come if you'd like
But please don't bring your friends

Action Man's gone to the cleaners
Barbie is working the streets
They took her in, with a handful of sweets

What can you do? What can you say?
They give me disease on the medium wave

I've got things to do, people to see
I've got no time, please don't bother me

They put all the books on the bonfire
Two-thousand years in a flame
I run like a horse in a fairground
Rewind mе and play me again

Once I was a boy, which seems funny to me
Yеs, I threw my stones, read my books, climbed my trees
What can I say to you, mister?
Yes, I've been drinking again
You can beat my brains, but don't kiss me again

I've always been like this, since I was young
I'm a truculent bigot, I revel in scum

We used to converse, so long ago
Now we're existing on personal stereo

They put all the books on the bonfire
Two-thousand years in a flame
I run like a horse in a fairground
Rewind me and play me again

(How'd you feel?)
I can't use my eyes...
(What you say?)
Thanks for my surprise…

I wasn't listening, I didn't know
Tell me what happened, where did I go?
I'm pulling my hair, I lay on the floor
The papers aren't funny, not funny no more

They put all the books on the bonfire
Two-thousand years in a flame
I run like a horse in a fairground
Rewind me and play me again

Oh, I wasn't listening, I didn't know
(They put all the books on the bonfire)
Tell me what happened, where did I go?
I'm pulling my hair, I lay on the floor
(Two-thousand years in a flame)
The papers aren't funny, not funny no more
I've always been like this, since I was young
(I run like a horse in a fairground)
And I'm a truculent bigot, I revel in scum
You can beat my brains, beat my brains
(Rewind me and play me again)
Beat my brains, but don't kiss me again

(Spoken)
That wasn't too bad, was it? We haven't played for a long time, so if we're very bad you'll have to bear with us. We'll get better in a minute. We need to finish now. This next song is uh, Pardon Me. This song's all about being sorry when you're not sorry!
