Drawn and Quartered Lyrics by The Korgis

Dumb Waiters

1980

I was brought up in a faceless town
No education and no name
Always restless, never settled down
Had to learn to live in shame
Through my dreary world you walked one day
Love was in the air
Your face took my breath away
Speechless, helpless, drawn and quartered
I have seen you standing on the street
Looking so good, no one can compete
People tell me that you're only friends
But I can't bear it, on you my life depends
It's so hard when your whole past is black
To go back where you were before
You once got me off the beaten track
Now my future's insecure
In my solitude I hear your voice
You are my every dream
No resistance, ain't got no choice
Speechless, helpless, drawn and quartered
I have seen you standing on the street
Looking so good, no one can compete
People tell me that you're only friends
But I can't bear it, on you my life depends
Through my dreary world you walked one day
Love was in the air
Your face took my breath away
Speechless, helpless, drawn and quartered
I have seen you standing on the street
Looking so good, no one can compete
People tell me that you're only friends
But I can't bear it, on you my life depends
I have seen you standing on the street
Looking so good, no one can compete
People tell me that you're only friends
But I can't bear it, on you my life depends
