Agony (Live at Wapping Wall, London 1986) Lyrics by Newtown Neurotics

Kickstarting A Backfiring Nation (Live at Wapping Wall, London 1986)

1986

You are the most infuriating person I've ever met
We argue all night and both of us end up getting so upset
I knew I was wrong
But that raging feeling still drove me on
Chorus:
And it's so embarrassing, it's so embarrassing
I wish that I could cry 'cos that's all I wanna do
Cry instead of bruising you
Cry, do what a man's not supposed to do
In public, on the street
Let me ask you something
When was the last time you saw a man cry on TV?
And it's, and it's
And it's agony
I managed to control myself and I walked away in the end
Away from violence or breaking down in front of my friends
I told them all lies
I said a speck of dust had blown in my eyes
Chorus:
And it's so embarrassing, it's so embarrassing
I wish that I could cry 'cos that's all I want to do
Cry instead of bruising you
Cry, do what a man's not supposed to do
In public, on the street
Let me ask you something
When was the last time you saw a man cry on TV?
And it's, and it's
And it's agony
Unfriendly world, embrace your friends
They're all around you
For productivity, divide your enemies
And you'll keep smiling, you'll keep smiling, you'll keep smiling
And telling me, "ah, shut up you sissy"
And it's agony
I don't care who is left or who is right or who's wrong
'cos when I get a bee in my bonnet it's always you who gets stung
Oh what a shame
When you can't shed a tear without feeling ashamed
Chorus:
And it's so embarrassing, it's so embarrassing
I wish that I could cry 'cos that's all I want to do
Cry, instead of bruising you
Cry, do what a man's not supposed to do
In public, on the street
Let me ask you something
When was the last time you saw a man cry on TV?
And it's, and it's
And it's agony
And it's tearing me apart
