January Song

January Song - Billy Bragg

I'm so tightly wound in tension

Feel just like a guitar string

Wait until revealed emotions

Touch me and you'll hear me sing

I'm so tired of being wired

But there's so much that I have to do

Tidy up the place for Monday

When she's buried in her dancing shoes

My journey has been so hard lately

Been having to get out and push

Left me standing on the sidewalk

Talking to a burning bush

Politicians selling freedom

Bumper sticker - 50 cents

Asking what he wants to be free from

Answer don't make any sense

Somewhere on the far horizon

Gonna wash away my sins

Turn around and taste tomorrow

This is how the end begins
