To The Lions

To The Lions - Lloyd Cole

Written by：Lloyd Cole

I lost my girl on monday

Looking for some sympathy

I went to church directly

The lord was not there for me

Didn't go to work on Tuesday

Got to drinking around noon

I lost my heart to a mean bartender

She knocked me off my stool

Now the world's spinning 'round too fast lord

Won't you let me off on the corner

You know a man could take to sinning

All he needs is a little push in that direction

I lost my job on Friday

Said a lack of discipline

I went to church directly

Peter said he was not in

I hit the bar on Sunday

Looking for some discipline

I sold my soul to the mean bartender

She said I'm born again

Now the world's spinning 'round too fast lord

Won't you let me off on the corner

You know a man could take to sinning

All he needs is a little pushing

You time it just right

You could send me to the lions tonight
