23a, Swan Hill Lyrics - The Artful Dodger - Ian Hunter

Wrote this poem called, 'The Floods Roll On' 

He said, this ain? t yours 

Where? d you get it from? 

You must have stole it from a book, oh yeah 

You must have stole it from a book. 

? Cause you ain? t frail 

You ain? t beautiful 

And I don? t fancy you at all 

You? d be a ruin 

If looks could kill 

23A, Swan Hill 

Stiff with rage, screaming at the sky 

Innocence breaks 

Says she wants to die 

I? m assuming I? m alive, oh yeah

I? m assuming I? m alive 

She pushes and she pulls 

My legs go weak 

In fascinating terror 

The whole world moves 

And I? m standing still 

In 23A Swan Hill 

And it? s always raining 

And you never ask why 

You never give yourself a shot 

You just sit and watch your life go by 

Kicking stones at a still life 

Want to pull it down, slash it, slash it 

There must be some way out here 

There must be some way out here

This ain? t right, there must be more to life 

Than breaking and entering 

Doing people? s heads in alcohol, nicotine 

Thinking what I might have been 

You would be a ruin 

If looks could kill 

23A, Swan Hill 

And the whole world moves 

And I? m standing still 

In 23A, Swan Hill 

And I will 

And I will 

And I will 

And I will 

In 23A, Swan Hill 

And I will 

And I will 

And I will 

And I will 

In 23A, Swan Hill 

And I will 

And I will 

And I will 

And I will 

In 23A, Swan Hill
