The Duke of Beaufort is not at home today He's very tired and thought he'd go away You wait for him, your eyes are on the door You know no other way The Duke of Beaufort is very kind to cats Keeps them in his cellar to help him catch his rats He's very noble and his lineage is pure But you, you're a whore The Duke of Splendour just wasn't much amused And though you, you knew you'd been abused If you'd had help you might have buggered off his fuse But alone, you're too confused He picked me up, I was on the street He made it clear he would use me My parents died, I was three years old I had to make a living Close your eyes Close your eyes In a lot of ways I'm close to him Though he may seem to ignore it I'm sure he cares, at least I think he does It's just he's very busy Close your eyes Close your eyes "Here's today" says the Telegraph It's the world, it's the world Gone away on a photograph Riding high, riding high "There's a way" says the seraphim You will find, you will find Gone in search of an epitaph Running wild, running wild You saw them coming forward Asking you to be kind You couldn't face their counsel They were men full of greed In your position, nothing's safe They'll kill you, they'll kill you You'll be there when the lawman comes They'll kill you, they'll kill you You saw them coming forward Asking you to be kind You couldn't face their counsel They were men full of greed In your position, nothing's safe They'll kill you, they'll kill you You'll be there when the lawman comes They'll kill you, they'll kill you You saw them coming forward Asking you to be kind You couldn't face their counsel They were men full of greed In your position, nothing's safe They'll kill you, they'll kill you You'll be there when the lawman comes They'll kill you, they'll kill you You can be alone But not alone in your loneliness And yet there must be more I can't believe that all has been in vain And if there isn't, be sure of friendship As the hours grow long Rest assured that this phase is passing Give yourself a chance
