Testo Black Bess

Black Bess in White light all covered in blue
Now she trips out on cocaine 'cause there's nothin to do
Since his man in' his gland they up an' shot through
You lose most in lovin' you win only a few

Time Lord it drags heavy on me
Sad evenin's alone and my thoughts are on she
I fear that down here you seldom can see Do you have an idea what lonely can be?

His delight at the sight of a worn apple skin
Goes with his hat in his hand to the next rubbish tin
Consoled by the role that the bottle will bring
Means as much to his being as a throne to a king

Time Lord it drags heavy on me
Sad evenin's alone and my thoughts are on she
And I fear that down here you seldom can see
Do you have an idea what lonely can be?

See he with his ego on his own shadow fall
Saw a caged man with his bare hands run through a brick wall
For 45 years of his life he had shorn Then he wakes up one mornin' to find his life gone

Time Lord it drags heavy on me
Sad evenin's alone and my thoughts are on she
And I fear that down here you seldom can see
Do you have an idea what lonely can be?

Frankie's Vietnam was spent dodgin' lead
But eventually the enemy blew off his head
His weight was a feather as they carried him in
Only half of a friend they sent home in a tin

Time Lord it drags heavy on me
Sad evenin's alone and my thoughts are on she
And I fear that down here you seldom can see
Do you have an idea what lonely can be?
