MADNESS
"Hunchback Of Torriano"

I spy, shuffling my way, the hunchback of torriano
Dipping in and out, of unzipped places
Well I'm witness to those shell shocked faces
Now you're losing everything that meant anything, for a quick return
But this time I've had enough
I'm blowing you out and I'm moving on up oh

Oh I guess you'll always be
Like a long lost friend to me
Oh I guess you'll always be
The younger brother that was never to be

Well since you've chosen to burn the spoon
I don't have time no, neither the room
But this time no I can't bail you out
You've exhausted all the fun and confirmed my doubts

Oh I guess you'll always be
Like a long lost friend to me
Oh I guess you'll always be
The younger brother that was never to be
But you'd always take the joke too far
Giving it the biggun with your punch drunk jokes and your big cigar! (big cigar!)

(I cry with my weary eyes)
(At the withdrawn faces)
(Scuttling around over a blank pot)
(At the defenceless)

But I guess you'll always be
Like a long lost friend to me
Oh I guess you'll always be
The younger brother that was never to be
Yes I guess you will always be
Like a long lost friend to me
Oh I guess you'll always be
The younger brother that was never to be
But you'd always take the joke too far
