Sara

She said eat garlic when you feel like you’ve got a cold

And herbs will aid your memory even when you’re feeling old

There’s something that will pick you up whenever you are down

There’s someone I know, and you’ll see him around

And she pretends like she’s different and snides at those she sees

Sniffing powder in the toilet then dropping to their knees

But she knows it’s just inside her, trying to get out

She’s tried so hard to hide it, to stop us finding out

 

Bought up in London, around people just the same

Who just laugh at the ignorance of those who wouldn’t play her game

In the school that cost her Daddy thousands so he knew she’d be alright

Her pocket money bought the capsules, that keep her up all night

And to men she’ll play the innocent and smile at their will

Take lifts in their Mercedes Benz and let them pay the bill

And wonder when it’s rumoured that she’s anything like they are

Just because she takes their money, won’t make her go that far

 

Now she’s heading off to India just for a culture change

But she’ll be home soon for some home comfort and a little bit of loose change

That’ll pay for her enjoyment of a night out on the town

To help plantations in Columbia, that’s her justification now

St Anne’s place used to be the centre, now it’s at her whim

She doesn’t want to be associated with the desperation that comes from within

She could stop whenever she wants but she’ll always just give in

It’s like a deeper plain of living until the emptiness kicks in
