Knackers Yard Blues - Lindisfarne, Alan Hull, Ray Jackson

You keep on running but I’m left behind

I need a white stick 'cos I walk so blind

I’m like a bandage on a wooden leg

I feel hung up just like a coat on a peg

I bought some pictures to hang on my wall

But I like a change so I moved them all

But nothing ever changes in the human race

I can get another mirror but it’s still the same old face

You used to tell me there was nothing I lacked

You took it all and left me stretched on your rack

You took my money and you took all my clothes

I need you like I need a cold in my nose

You took my armchair and you took my settee

You took my breakfast and you came back for tea

You took my socks and now you’re smoking in bed

I need you like I need a hole in the head
