* Woke up on a Manchester morning No sun up on the sky Caught the train down to London So broke I could make you cry When you get right down to it There's really nothing in it
I got a copy of the evening paper If there's a job I will apply The DHS says it's now or never This is a case of do or die
When it comes right down to it I've got to struggle through it
** Put the lights way down low Come closer Tell me heroes don't fade away, they're forever Just a little bit of something Just a little bit of real Tell me heroes don't fade away, become a memory So come on darling now I still need to know Are we gonna fade away or stay forever
Took a walk down to Soho I've got T.V. on my mind It says these days you have it easy Oh Lord, I must be blind When it comes right down to it I can see right on through it
I really love my old lady Much more grief she can't take Wish I could take her somewhere fancy I still need that lucky break
When it comes right down to it There's really nothing in it
Repeat **
And I'm dreaming of summer Of just me and you now
But a love with no money How long will it ring true
One big city smells like another I get lost in this maze When I get home should I lie The bottle's gone I'm in a daze
When it comes right down to it I've got to struggle through it
Things look bleak out of this window Sometimes I wanna run away And the light fades down this tunnel It merges into another day
