Washed up and Left for Dead (Live) - The Selecter

It's common knowledge

There's always one exception

Not quite a part of the crowd

He tries so hard just to

Laugh in the right places

But he knows it's just not funny

He has this feeling he just knows it

They don't like him 'cos he's different

He knew all about the no go areas

But he went there just the same

He was washed up and left for dead

Nobody told him he was just not wanted

It got so cold after midnight

Oh yeah

Don't want the money

He just wants the fame

There's something driving him inside

His friends don't like him

'Cos they think that he's so stupid

So he just goes out on his own

He saw a movie that night and it moved him

It was just like his life story

But he got jumped by some thugs

On the way home

No one came to his rescue

He was washed up and left for dead

Nobody told him he was just not wanted

It gets so cold after midnight

Oh yeah

Night after night he's out biting the pavement

Hurt his hands clapping for the group

He can't dance but he can certainly cause trouble

Yeah ah ooh

He was washed up and left for dead

Nobody told him he was just not wanted

It gets so cold after midnight

Oh yeah

It's common knowledge there's

Always one exception

Not quite a part of the crowd

He tries so hard just to laugh in the right places

But he knows it's just not funny

He saw a movie that night and it moved him

It was just like his life story

But he got jumped by some thugs

On the way home

No one came to his rescue
