เพลง "Further Complications." (2020 Remaster)

In the Beginning there was nothing

To be honest, that suited me just fine.

I was three weeks late coming out of the womb

In no great rush to join the rest of mankind

where there were:

Further complications

Further complications in store.

I was not born in war-time

I was not born in pain or poverty.

I need an addiction,

I need an affliction;

to cultivate a personality.

I need some:

Further complications.

Further complications in store.

Your life is just a carrier-bag.

The enemy without has now moved in somewhere else.

If your parents didn't screw you up, why not do it yourself?

Go fight your battles - go to a disco.

You want to suffer? Go to a Rock Show.

Do you follow me?

Then follow me to:

Further complications

Further complications in store.

Your life is just a carrier-bag.

Over-fill it and the straps will snap.

I used to think that people all chose lives they led

But there's so many other choices

that you've got to make instead.

Don't write a novel; a shopping-list is better.

It's a complicated Boogie & I don't know any better, baby.

Further complications

Further complications in store.

Your life is just a carrier bag.

Over-fill it and the straps will snap.

Further complications - Further complications

Do you follow me?
