Never All There Songtext
von General Public

The tipsy gets her man to be rubbish
His crust is hard now, all roads lead to ruin
His willing ear gets him nowhere
(He sits with a drink of ink or bad drugs)
He′s never there, never all there
(He's scared of her floating heart in a book)

Never all there
Never all there, never all there, never all there

Top of the morning, guess who′s broken?
No sense whatever, whenever there's sense to be spoken
Which face to wear, too soft to care
(He'll tell you what′s what, he′ll tell you who's who)
He′s never there, never all there
(Bends over backwards, broken in two)


Never all there
The chair's not quite under the table
Never all there, never all there, never all there
Never all there
Too cold, big shot, a blue boy
Never all there, never all there, never all there

Sha na na na na na na na, la la la la la la la la
Sha na na na na na na na, la la la la la la la la

Which face to wear, too soft to care
(Never all there, never all there)
When his willing ear gets him nowhere
(The stairs don′t go right up to the top floor)
(Would anyone else have seen the mistake?)
(He eats when he's tired ′cause he sleeps when he is hungry)
(How can he help it?)

He's never all there
His chair's not quite under the table
Never all there, never all there, never all there
Never all there
Too house brick, short of a heart full
Never all there, never all there, never all there

Sha na na na na na na na, la la la la la la la la
Sha na na na na na na na, la la la la la la la la


Which face to wear, too soft to care
(Never all there, never all there)
He′s never there, never all there
(Never all there, never all there)

All of his pride and insistence
(Never all there)
Now come to a painful indifference
Never all there, never all there
(Never all there)
Never all there, never, never all there
(Never all there)
Never all there, never, never, never
(Never all there)
Never, never all there
(Never all there)
Never, never, never, never all there
