In Echo Park they really did me in

They tied me up to some public bins

I said the cavern club is now a Morrisons

So here's a twisted arm

Here’s a kick in the shins

I heard you got the job

I heard you're getting paid

Well I'm in the garden can you let me stay

They threw me out of the YMCA

We could rent a movie and get takeaway

And the only time that they kick him around

He’s crying out loud 'cause he's never been found

I'vе been hearing his voice from under thе ground

Crying out loud 'cause you're never around

They really laid into me

Why'd they have to do that

I know it's love that is what naughty mothers do

And it’s sex that is what horny fathers choose

This bouncer seems to have the strangest views

We’ve been talking for ages, and I'm still confused

And the only time that they kick him around

He’s crying out loud 'cause he's never been found

I've been hearing his voice from under the ground

Crying out loud ’cause you're never around

I've got nothing here but my records for one

Nothing here but for your weird son

I keep hearing his voice on radio one

Crying out loud 'cause you're never around
