about

I always regarded this as one of the weaker songs in the current crop. However, Mr Dangerous liked it so it was introduced into the set. A very biographical account of my formative years. "Vince" was a larger than life character who lived in Seaford and whom this recording, is dedicated to his memory.

lyrics

Growing up was never easy,
on the troubled side of town,
I was the King of a very small castle,
so proud to wear my crown.
I didn’t want to be a soldier,
it’s a big bad world out there,
a rebellious kid without a care.

A new class of total strangers,
where the bigger boys picked on me,
I responded like a coward,
bunking school and my G.C.E’s
I should have listened to my parents,
“take a job or learn a trade”
my sole desire was to get laid.

Get a life!

Left home to make my million,
easy money wasn’t hard to find,
Vince said, - “never con a conman”
he must have told me that a thousand times.
I’m sick of this angry silence,
I’ll never vote for a bent M.P.
even though he’s much the same as me.

Get a life!

I could paint a black and white picture,
of this colourful life I’ve led,
small words with a very big meaning,
better than a life in bed!

Get a life!
