Marianne Faithfull - Alone

FAMILY

We're at a stand-still! What she's been sending,
It's not any money a man can build a house with.
She's as giddy as a cyclone!
All the profits go for her pleasure!
And we're at a stand-still, for what she's been sending
Is not any money a man can build a house with.
Won't she settle down to business ?
Won't she ever learn to save something ?
For what the feather-brain is sending is not any kind of money
A man can build a little house with.

ANNA I

We're making progress.
We have come to Los Angeles
And every door is open here to welcome extras.
We only need a bit of practice
