Honey I'm A Big Boy Now
Billy Bragg
I can see the kitchen light From the road where i park my bike But it's dark there as it often is these days And the gloomy living room Really needs a dust and a broom But i can't brush your memory away Her father was an admiral In someone else's navy And she had seen the world before i met her She would wash and cook and clean And all the other things between And like a fool i just sat there and let her Chorus: Now i can feed and wash and dress myself And i can sleep without the light on Honey, i'm a big boy now I don't know what she does with all the money that i sent her She's running round the town with the young pretender I haven't touched the garden Since the day she walked away From a love affair that bore only bitter fruit She took everything she wanted Which is why she left me here With these pots and pans and my old wedding suit A letter came one morning That she would not let me see And from that day i began to realise That she would one day break The home we tried to make For sinners cannot live in paradisebeing left boys eighties honey leaving political
