Still Ill (Live in London, 1986)

[Intro]

(Oh)

[Verse 1]

I decree today that life

Is simply taking and not giving

England is mine and it owes me a living

But ask me why and I'll spit in your eye, oh

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

[Refrain]

Does the body rule the mind

Or does the mind rule the body?

I don't know

[Chorus]

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, no

Oh, no

Oh am I still ill?

Oh, no

Oh, no

[Refrain]

Does the body rule the mind

Or does the mind rule the body?

I don't know

[Verse 3]

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 really wouldn't bother

For there are brighter sides to life

And I should know because I've seen them

Oh, but not often

[Chorus]

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, no, oh, no!

Oh, am I still ill?

Oh, no, oh, no!

Eh!
