Standing in the dock at Southampton 

trying to get to Holland or France 

The man in the mac said 

you've got to go back 

You know they didn't even give us a chance 



Christ you know it ain't easy 

You know how hard it can be 

The way things are going 

They're going to crucify me 



Finally made the plane into Paris 

Honeymooning down by the Seine 

Peter Brown call to say 

you can make it O.K. 

You can get married in Gibraltar near Spain 



Christ you know it ain't easy 

You know how hard it can be 

The way things are going 

They're going to crucify me 



Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton 

Talking in our beds for a week 

The newspapers said 

say what're you doing in bed 

I said we're only trying to get us some peace 



Christ you know it ain't easy 

You know how hard it can be 

The way things are going 

They're going to crucify me 



Saving up your money for a rainy day 

giving all your clothes to charity 

Last night the wife said 

Oh boy when you're dead 

you don't take nothing with you but your soul, think 



Made a lightning trip to Vienna 

Eating chocolate cake in a bag 

The newspapers said 

she's gone to his head 

They look just like to Gurus in drag 



Christ you know it ain't easy 

You know how hard it can be 

The way things are going 

They're going to crucify me 



Caught the early plane back to London 

Fifty acorns tied in a sack 

The men from the press 

said we wish you successs 

It's good to have the both of you back 



Christ you know it ain't easy 

You know how hard it can be 

The way things are going 

They're going to crucify me 

The way things are going 

They're going to crucify me
