The Venus of the soup kitchen is waiting There for me and all us poor Cripples, who've been in the wars End up sleeping on her floorWoah, woah, woah, woah, woahWhen you're scared of down and out You keep it to yourself and if anyone suspects You say "Who me? Hardly"You tell him, "Thank your stars, this isn't Derby day 'Cos it's clear you've got the gift For backing the wrong horse, Charlie"Woah, woah, woah, woah, woahWhen you're scared of down and out You camouflage your fear with a fakin' DJ smile And maybe some boogie dancin'But there's no need to be proud Hey, if something's hurtin' you Could be, it hurts your brothers too From Langley Park to Memphis(Last night) Last night I dreamed I dared to raise my headThe Venus of the soup kitchen stood over me Singing, sometimes the job gets you down You're ashamed that the word will get 'roundWell, all you poor Cripples, who've been in the wars End up sleeping on my floorWoah, woah, woah, woah, woahNow some will spin you yarns to keep you quiet for a while But you know that's not my style, who needs fancy footwork?
