Songtext Heavy living Ian Dury And The Blockheads

Heavy living

Heavy living is the life that i’ve lead
seeing saylight througha curtain of red
stands to reason why i’m staying in bed
heavey living off the top of my head

heavy live, uh, I know it too well
every creak on the stairway to hell
double vision and a terrible smell
heavy livign at the Hard Luck Hotel

heavy suasage is the price you pay when you’re on a corroder
heavy bangers is another way to let youself go

heavy living’s the condition i’m in
i’d wish I hadn’t if I knew where i’d been
the air is cold, and the membrane is thin
heavy living getting under my skin

heavy sausage is the price you pay at the cafe Doolally
heavy bangers has a special way of saying hello
heavy cricket on a cloudy day
heavy chukkas ‘till the close of play
heavy living is the way i’ll stay
as if I don’t know

heavy living is the life that i’ve lead
passion spent, nobility fled
stands to reason why i’m staying in bed
heavy living off the top of my head

heavy shitters is the price you pay when you’re on a corroder
heavys bangers is another way top let yourself go
heavy make-up for the matinee
heavy curtains at the cabaret
heavy living is the way i’ll stay
as If I don’t know

heavy sausage is the dish of the day
heavy bangers on the reoundelay
heavy living is the way i’ll stay
as if I don’t know
as if I don’t know
