Standing in the dock at southampton,
Trying to get to holland or france
The man in the mac said, youve got to turn back
You know they didn't even give us a chance
Christ you know it aint easy,
You know how hard it can be
The way things are going
They're going to crucify me
Finally made the plane into paris,
Honey mooning down by the seine
Peter brown called to say,
You can make it ok,
You can get married in gibraltar, near spain
Christ you know it aint easy,
You know how hard it can be
The way things are going
They're going to crucify me
Drove from paris to the amsterdam hilton,
Talking in our beds for a week
The newspapers said, say what you doing in bed?
I said, were only trying to get us some peace
Christ you know it aint easy,
You know how hard it can be
The way things are going
They're going to crucify me
Saving up your money for a rainy day,
Giving all your clothes to charity
Last night the wife said,
Oh boy, when you're dead
You don't take nothing with you
But your soul - think!
Made a lightning trip to vienna,
Eating chocolate cake in a bag
The newspapers said, she's gone to his head,
They look just like two gurus in drag
Christ you know it aint easy,
You know how hard it can be
The way things are going
They're going to crucify me
Caught an early plane back to london
Fifty acorns tied in a sack
The men from the press said, we wish you success,
Its good to have the both of you back
Christ you know it aint easy,
You know how hard it can be
The way things are going
They're going to crucify me
The way things are going
They're going to crucify me
