Polly Jean Harvey - Your Last Friend In This Town lyrics

rate me

Well, my clothes are my badge of business

My associates are satellites

My product's all that you deserve

The last ditch my merchandise

The only shelter you have found

I'm a rumour goes round

And i'm your last friend in this town

Saw you coming from miles away

Whites of your eyes as clear as day

I'm a voice fading in from the general hum

You wouldn't believe things i have done

I'm the only safety net around

You slipped and you're going down

And i'm your last friend in this town

Last friend now

In this town

Well, one day you'll learn how to read a face

When you find your final resting place

And when you've learnt all the tricks of the trade

In my image, you'll be made

You'll be out in the hunting ground

Preying on weaknesses you've found

With your last friend in this town
