Fucking Ada Lyrics - Ian Dury

Moments of sadness, moments of guilt 

Stains on the memory, stains on the quilt 

Chapter of incident, chapter and verse 

Sub-heading chronic, paragraph worse 

Lost in the limelight, backed in the blaze 

Did it for nine pence, those were the days 

Give me my acre and give me my plough 

Tell me tomorrow, don't bother me now 

Fucking Ada, fucking Ada 

Fucking Ada, fucking Ada 

Times at a distance, times without touch 

Greed forms the habit of asking to much 

Followed at bedtime by builders and bells 

Wait til the doldrums which nothing dispels

Songs That Will Make You Cry Uncontrollably 

Linkin Park Honors Chester Bennington In The Emotional Video For 'One More Light' 

Watch Beck's Heroic New Music Video For 'Up All Night' 

Idly, mentally, doubtful and dread 

Who runs with the beans shall not stale with the bread 

Let me lie fallow and dormant dismay 

Tell me tomorrow, don't bother today 

Fucking ada, fucking ada 

Fucking ada, fucking ada 

Tried like a good un, did it all wrong t 

Thought that the hard way was taking to long 

To late for regret or chemical change 

Yesterdays targets have gone out of range 

Failure infolds me with clammy green arms 

Damn the excursions and blast the alarms 

For the rest of what's natural Ill lay on the ground 

Tell me tomorrow if I'm still around 

Fucking Ada, fucking Ada 

Fucking Ada, fucking Ada 

Fucking Ada, fucking Ada 

Fucking Ada, fucking Ada

Fucking Ada, fucking Ada 

Fucking Ada, fucking Ada 

Fucking Ada, fucking Ada 

Fucking Ada, fucking Ada 

Fucking Ada, fucking Ada 

Fucking Ada, fucking Ada 

Fucking Ada, fucking Ada 

Fucking Ada, fucking Ada 

Fucking Ada, fucking Ada 

Fucking Ada, fucking Ada 

Fucking Ada, fucking Ada 

Fucking Ada, fucking Ada 

Fucking Ada, fucking Ada 

Fucking Ada,
