the watch I saw
I saw english girls taken over from foreigner's
in my watch of life in love
and I got taken out of preventive maintenance
on it
and killed of my mind
isn't part of what I done
so much could have been averted
if I was left to some words with
my big money
could have saved the problem
of treating me like their dummy
my money would talk
and prevent what I saw from happening to the funnys
instead of trying to make like I pulled out
and I'm full of separate whims keep your house
its no fun getting accused
like I want that to come
foreigner's finding engish girls
to corrupt what they were of left with eliminate me
and the world got from enemys to flee
my watch only reported
and I got no support
just try to change me
into the wrong those did see
except I saw it
as what didn't work me
foreigner's taking and corrupting english girls
took me from my world
and took so much life
from mothers and a wife
no thanks to my enemys
pulling out from me
wasn't what I be
