Andrewpurcellmusic - They scraped me up (Remastered) Lyrics

The cash point
Had rescued me
My benefits
Are out not in
I went in search
Of some cheap booze
I had nothing
Else to do
I had nothing
Else to do

Sat outside
And filled my guts
Also had
Myself some drugs
I felt nice
When it kicked in
I lay down
And went to sleep
I lay down
And went to sleep

Samaritans pass me by
But one of them
Phoned 999
The police
They came to see me
I hurled abuse
So they told me
I hurled abuse
So they told me

They scraped me up
Off the floor
Put me in
The ambulance
I vomited and
Wet myself
And it's all free
On the national health well

They offered me a cubicle
They offered help
But I refused
Security kept an eye
More abuse
To passers by
More abuse
To passers by
They told me
I fell asleep
Well I woke up
In a heap
As I lit a cigarette
They put it out
I got upset
They put it out
I got upset

So I made a song and dance
I'm going home
That was my plan
Then the world
Went into dark
I didn't know
What was wrong
I didn't know
What was wrong

They scraped me up
Off the floor
To the trolley
Me once more
I'm not swearing
I've gone shy
Without them
I might of died

Well I'd deserve it
Well I'd deserve it
Well I'd deserve it
Well I'd deserve it
The shame of it all
The shame of it all
The shame of it all
The shame of it all
Yeah that's my shame
