Venus Of The Soup Kitchen

The Venus of the soup kitchen is waiting there for me
And all us poor cripples who've been in the wars
And up sleeping on her floor...
Woah !
When you're scared of down and out
You keep it to yourself and if anyone suspects
You say : Who me ? Hardly !
You tell him Thank your stars, this isn't Derby day
'Cos it's clear you've got the gift for backing the wrong horse, Charlie.
Woah !

When you're scared of down and out
You camouflage your fear with a fakin' D.J. smile
And maybe some boogie dancin'
But there's no need to be proud
Hey if something's hurtin' you
Could be it hurts your brothers too
From Langley Park to Memphis
Last night, last night I dreamed I dared to raise my head

The Venus of the soup kitchen stood over me
Singin' : Sometimes the job gets you down
You're ashamed that the word will get round
Well all you poor cripples who've been in the wars
End up sleeping on my floor.
Woah !

Now some will spin you yarns to keep you quiet for a while
But you know that's not my style, who needs fancy footwork ?
'Cos none of it adds up, no it doesn't weigh a thing
And it doesn't buy you beer, from Langley Park to Memphis
Last night, last night I dreamed I dared to raise my head

The Venus of the soup kitchen stood over me
Singin' : Here you are, and I won't tell you've no one else but me
Every night I know you'll be here staring hungrily
Well here you are, no I won't tell 'cos everyone I know
Wanders down here every night they've nowhere else to go.
The Venus of the soup kitchen is standing there over me
Every night I'm gonna be here staring hungrily

The Venus of the soup kitchen is waiting there for me
And all us poor cripples who've been in the wars
End up sleeping on her floor

End up sleeping on her floor
And all us poor cripples who've been in the wars
The Venus of the soup kitchen is waiting there for me

Every night I'm gonna be here staring hungrily
The Venus of the soup kitchen is standing there over me
Wanders down here every night they've nowhere else to go.
Well here you are, no I won't tell 'cos everyone I know
Every night I know you'll be here staring hungrily
Singin' : Here you are, and I won't tell you've no one else but me
The Venus of the soup kitchen stood over me

Last night, last night I dreamed I dared to raise my head
And it doesn't buy you beer, from Langley Park to Memphis
'Cos none of it adds up, no it doesn't weigh a thing
But you know that's not my style, who needs fancy footwork ?
Now some will spin you yarns to keep you quiet for a while

Woah !
End up sleeping on my floor.
Well all you poor cripples who've been in the wars
You're ashamed that the word will get round
Singin' : Sometimes the job gets you down
The Venus of the soup kitchen stood over me

Last night, last night I dreamed I dared to raise my head
From Langley Park to Memphis
Could be it hurts your brothers too
Hey if something's hurtin' you

Woah !
And up sleeping on her floor...
And all us poor cripples who've been in the wars
The Venus of the soup kitchen is waiting there for me
