Sheepskin Tearaway

Sheepskin Tearaway
She opened her heart to a tearaway
(A Sheepskin tearaway)
He was covered in scars and full of heroin
Everyone said from the start not one single thing
could ever be ok
She didn't listen anyway

She just opened her heart and threw her cares away
At night they held on so tight in the dark
He brushed her hair away
She heard him say
"All my life i've been fighting and making the best of
And with a very bad lot, very bad lot, very, very
bad lot indeed"
All your fighting got you nowhere
If nowhere's here with you on my skin
And you could fight forever
But if you killed them all you'd never win
So give me your surrender
there are other ways to kill the pain
but things'll never mend you
It's like trying to dry your eyes
in the pouring rain
She opened her heart to a tearaway
(A Sheepskin tearaway)
All covered in scars and full of heroin
Tearaway, Sheepskin Tearaway
Sheep, sheep, sheep, sheep, sheep,
Sheepskin Tearaway.
