mando diao
song for aberdeen
She was an alcoholic artist With too much makeup round her eyes And I never knew her real name She was sunbeam wrapped in lies But I love her and I'm sorry And that's all there is to say It's like a fairy from the ancient time And I hope it, I hope it stays that way  And when I woke up on your kitchen floor With a headache made in hell And the flowers that I gave you Smiled at me from the window pane Then I thought I must be crazy Cause I'm feeling kinda good And then when Satan helped me up again It was then I, it was then I understood  Well I was never meant to be a good boy I was never meant to go to school Well it's guys like me who get somewhere Cause everybody pitty a fool Now it's payback for the rainy days Now it's no more me and you Well I got mine, you got yours babe Now it's payback Now it's me against the world  It was the last time I forgave you
