Stranglers lyrics - Ugly

album: Rattus Norvegicus (1977)
genre: 

I could have read 
A poem called 
Ozymandias 
To her instead 

I lived for the moment 
It was a futile 
Gesture anyway 
I was here 
And she was here 

And being broad 
Of mind and hips 
We did the only 
Thing possible 

I guess I shouldn't have strangled her to death 
But I had to go to work and she had laced my coffee with acid 

Normally I wouldn't have minded 
But I'm allergic to sulphuric acid 
Besides she had acne 
And if you've got acne well I apologise for disliking it instensely. 
But it's understandble that ugly people have got complexes 
I mean it seems to me that ugly people don't have a chance 

It's only the children or the fucking wealthy who tend to be good looking 

An ugly fart 
Attracks a good looking 
Chick, if he's got money 

An ugly fart 
Attracks a good looking 
Chick if he's got money 

An ugly fart 
Attracks a good looking 
Chick 
If he's got money 

It's different for Jews somehow 
I'd like to see 
A passionate 
Film between 
The two ugliest 
People in the world. 
When I say ugly 
I don't mean rough looking 
I mean hideous 

Don't tell me that 
Aesthetics are 
Subjective, you 
Just know the truth 
When you see it 
Whatever it is 

Muscle
Power, muscle
Power, muscle
Power, muscle
Power
