Battle for britain (the letter)

My my, but time do fly
When it´s in another pair of hands
And a loser I will be
For I´ve never been a winner
In my life
I used the sucker pills
And pity for the self
Though it´s the animal in me
But I´d rather be a beggar man
On the shelf
Don´t be so forlorn
It´s just the payoff
It´s the rain before the storm
On a better day
I´ll take you by the hand
And lead you thru´ the doors
Don´t you let my letter
Get you down
My my, but time do fly
When it´s in another pair of pants
And illusion I will be
For I´ve never been a sinner
La-de-dah
When it´s in another pair of hands
And a loser I will be
For I´ve never been a winner
In my life
I used the sucker pills
And pity for the self
Though it´s the animal in me
But I´d rather be a beggar man
On the shelf
Don´t be so forlorn
It´s just the payoff
It´s the rain before the storm
On a better day
I´ll take you by the hand
And lead you thru´ the doors
Don´t you let my letter
Get you down
My my, but time do fly
When it´s in another pair of pants
And illusion I will be
For I´ve never been a sinner
La-de-dah
