Текст песни SKYCLAD - A Bellyful Of Emptiness
<br/>
I'm twenty six years old - please tell me what have I gotA monopoly on misery - I guess that's my lotTen years of eating bullshit leaves it's taste in your mouthAnd I think the time has come for me to spit it all out...'Cause at the end of the tunnel I seeA dole-queue that's beckoning me.( )<br />Yes living hand-to-mouth it can be fun for a whileSimple things please simple minds - do you see me smile?I've broke my bread and fishes - turned my water to wineBut I'm sick of walking tightrope on the poverty lineI left my home and family - I've pawned all my dreamsTook a second mortgage on my soul to further my schemesNow my body's in the pages of "exchange and mart"Ten pounds or nearest offer for one slightly broken heart.And at the end of the rainbow I foundA crock of shit there on the ground.Have you had a bellyful of emptinessDo you feel like me we're all just wasting our timeIf it's true inside each cloud's a silver liningWhy does it shine on other lives but not on mine?I've had a bellyful of emptinessI've got a pocketful of nothing at allIn real-life fairy tales the frog stays a frogAnd the serving girl can't be the belle of the ball.You're not the belle of the ballGet back in your cinders and crawlHow many other fools like meHave lost their lives contractuallyBelieving there must be far moreThan nine to five - the factory floor?Have countless thousands watched their dreamsCorrupted into things obsceneBy money minded bastards whoDon't give a damn for me or you?Now my wallet's getting thinner like the hair on my headBy the time I hit the "big Time" I'll be buried and deadTell me how can you resent me for the money I've spentOn the only habit I indulge (that's paying the rent)?No-one said this life was easy Christ I've known that all alongBut it needn't be this difficult that's why I wrote this song
