lyrics

So Long Marianne

You watched time plough these lines into my face
And saw my hair burn out to fag ash grey
As the fickle tide of friendship ebbed away
Like muscles to the breakers you remained

So long Marianne
The world is so much poorer without your fiery stand
The royals I’ll be buggered
Religion I’ll be damned
So Long Marianne

We first conversed one drunken New Year’s eve
Then swiftly we became as thick as thieves
Close as other sides of the same leaf
Like spinach you were caught between my teeth

So long Marianne
The world is so much poorer without your fiery stand
The royals I’ll be buggered
Religion I’ll be damned
So Long Marianne

The fights were fierce the silence fiercer yet
But never passed a day I held regret
Given choice I’d do it all again
Lady fate I am forever in your debt

So long Marianne
The world is so much poorer without your fiery stand
The royals I’ll be buggered
Religion I’ll be damned
So Long Marianne
