Billy Bragg - Goalhanger текст песни
Текст
Hes got the bonhomie of a game show host
And his handshake is so limp its like meeting a ghost
His apologies are tired cos he uses them a lot
His excuses are so lame if they were horses theyd be shot
He lies through his teeth with impeccable grammar
In the game of life hes just a dreadful goalhanger
Keeping all his options open till the very last minute
Checking every situation trying to work out whats in it
Trying to nail him down is like nailing water to a wall
Hes incapable of making a commitment at all
Like trying to knock in a nail with an inflatable hammer
In the game of life hes just a dreadful goalhanger
Yesterday upon the stair I met a man whos never there
He wont be there again today
Well, thats what he told me to say
Hes got the natural arrogance of an exclamation mark
And he wishes his bite was a big as his bark
Hes appealing to the referee at every single stage
Hes a fuzzy little bundle of impotent rage
And when he ought to have patience, he only has anger
In the game of life hes just a dreadful goalhanger
His lack of humility defies imagination
And he hangs round like a fart in a russian space station
He doesnt even notice as he sells you down the river
Cos hes one of lifes takers and hes looking for a giver
He smirks and shrugs his shoulders as he drops another clanger
In the game of life hes just a dreadful goalhanger
And his handshake is so limp its like meeting a ghost
His apologies are tired cos he uses them a lot
His excuses are so lame if they were horses theyd be shot
He lies through his teeth with impeccable grammar
In the game of life hes just a dreadful goalhanger
Keeping all his options open till the very last minute
Checking every situation trying to work out whats in it
Trying to nail him down is like nailing water to a wall
Hes incapable of making a commitment at all
Like trying to knock in a nail with an inflatable hammer
In the game of life hes just a dreadful goalhanger
Yesterday upon the stair I met a man whos never there
He wont be there again today
Well, thats what he told me to say
Hes got the natural arrogance of an exclamation mark
And he wishes his bite was a big as his bark
Hes appealing to the referee at every single stage
Hes a fuzzy little bundle of impotent rage
And when he ought to have patience, he only has anger
In the game of life hes just a dreadful goalhanger
His lack of humility defies imagination
And he hangs round like a fart in a russian space station
He doesnt even notice as he sells you down the river
Cos hes one of lifes takers and hes looking for a giver
He smirks and shrugs his shoulders as he drops another clanger
In the game of life hes just a dreadful goalhanger
