Singing Loins Nail It Back Together Lyrics

Nail it back together
To keep out the weather.
Cos it got broke again,
This old heart again.

But I've got a big old box
Down in the cellar,
Where I keep all my stuff
For patching it up.
I've got rivets and rags,
I've got hooks and cement,
I've got leather and glue
And a rusty old screw.

Pull on a clean white shirt,
Drag myself back to work,
Looking good as new.
No-one will know.
It doesn't show,
Does it?

Hammer it back together
To keep out the weather.
I got careless again,
With this old heart again.

But I've got a big old box Down in the cellar,
Where I keep all my stuff
For bodging it up.
I've got canvas and tar,
I've got cat gut and wire.
Mud, sticks & stones
And some needles of bone.

Pull on a clean white shirt,
Drag myself back to work,
Looking good as new.
No-one will know.
It doesn't show,
Does it?
I got screwed up newspaper
for packing the holes,
Polystyrene & sandbags
& lead that I stole.

Pull on a big warm coat,
Drag myself down the road.
Smiling at you.
No-one will ever know.
It doesn't show,
Does it?
