Head in the Noose

Oh baby, things are troubled since we share the same bed.

I guess I had to leave and take some time off instead.

I plunged into the looking glass, I felt so stranded and despaired.

Here come the man from the gutter - and he's head over ears in debt.

 

Chorus

Then I got me a gun made of plastic and wood,

Hid my eyes in a shade and my hair in a hood,

But there's nowhere to run for the man on the loose,

Now I got my hands tied and my head in the noose.

 

Oh baby, things look different when you are behind bars.

I made my way to the border but didn't get very far.

'Cause seven days in wonderland can leave you dazzled and confused,

And in the heat of the moment I kinda forgot to top up the car.

 

Chorus

Then I got me a gun made of plastic and wood,

Hid my eyes in a shade and my hair in a hood,

But there's nowhere to run for the man on the loose,

Now I got my hands tied and my head in the noose.
