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
+
(2)
+
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 (2)
+
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
+
Repeat (1)
