Still Ill (2008 Remastered Version)
I decree today that life is simply taking and not giving
England is mine, it owes me a living
But ask me why, and I'll spit in your eye
Oh, ask me why, and I'll spit in your eye
But we cannot cling to the old dreams anymore
No, we cannot cling to those dreams
Does the body rule the mind, or does the mind rule the body?
I don't know
Under the iron bridge, we kissed
And although I ended up with sore lips
It just wasn't like the old days anymore
No, it wasn't like those days, am I still ill?
Oh, am I, oh, am I still ill?
Oh, am I?
Does the body rule the mind, or does the mind rule the body?
I don't know
Ask me why and I'll die
Oh, ask me why and I'll die
And if you must go to work tomorrow
Well, if I were you I wouldn't bother
For there are brighter sides to life
And I should know because I've seen them, but not very often
Under the iron bridge, we kissed
And although I ended up with sore lips
It just wasn't like the old days anymore
No, it wasn't like those days, am I still ill?
Oh, am I, oh, am I still ill?
Oh, am I?
England is mine, it owes me a living
But ask me why, and I'll spit in your eye
Oh, ask me why, and I'll spit in your eye
But we cannot cling to the old dreams anymore
No, we cannot cling to those dreams
Does the body rule the mind, or does the mind rule the body?
I don't know
Under the iron bridge, we kissed
And although I ended up with sore lips
It just wasn't like the old days anymore
No, it wasn't like those days, am I still ill?
Oh, am I, oh, am I still ill?
Oh, am I?
Does the body rule the mind, or does the mind rule the body?
I don't know
Ask me why and I'll die
Oh, ask me why and I'll die
And if you must go to work tomorrow
Well, if I were you I wouldn't bother
For there are brighter sides to life
And I should know because I've seen them, but not very often
Under the iron bridge, we kissed
And although I ended up with sore lips
It just wasn't like the old days anymore
No, it wasn't like those days, am I still ill?
Oh, am I, oh, am I still ill?
Oh, am I?
