John Cale - Damn Life lyrics

[John Cale - Damn Life lyrics]

Damn life damn life
What's it worth? Damn life
Getting on without this city
It's just self-pity damn life
You're just not worth it
You're just not worth the pain

They'll eat you alive
They'll drink the sweat from your brow
Eating the salt of the
Earth you'll never know oh no, respect
Respect what's respect?
Cause and effect self respect

She was the one got left behind
She was the one got lost
Never took from anybody
Self-sufficient at any cost
No, nothing can break this heart of mine
It stands invincible all the time
You always get what you left behind


Seek and you shall find
Seek and you shall find damn life

So she's still wandering her heart away
Doesn't even know if it's night or day
And even if someone helped her up
She'd stand little hope
Of recognizing those friends she had
And in many, many ways
Those friends were glad
