MARIANNE FAITHFULL lyrics - Brain Drain

Well, I know that you're tired of living this way,

We've been trying to get high without having to pay.



The walls are all empty, it's not a permanent state,

Just let me tell you that it's not too late.



You're a brain drain, you go on and on like a blood stain.

You're a drain brain, you go on and on like a blood stain.



Well, you know I ain't selfish, there's always a way.

If a thing ain't worth having, you're having to pay.



You're a brain drain, you go on and on like a blood stain.

You're a train brain, you go on and on like a blood stain.



Got so much to offer, but I can't pay the rent,

I can't buy you roses 'cause the money's all spent.



Well, you sat in my car, you drank my champagne,



You stole all my silk but you gave me no change.



You're a brain drain, you go on and on like a blood stain.

You're a train drain, you go on and on like a blood stain.



Got so much to offer, but I can't pay the rent,

I can't buy you roses 'cause the money's all spent.



Well, you sat in my car, you drank my champagne,

You stole all my silk, you left me no change.



You're a brain drain, you go on and on like a blood stain.

You're a train drain, you go on and on like a blood stain.



You're a brain drain, you go on and on like a blood stain.

You're a brain drain, you go on and on like a blood stain.
