The Charlatans
Up at the lake - original version
THE CHARLATANS UK
I don't see no wheat fields from my window today
I don't feel no sunshine when I'm up at the lake
And I've seen this once before
And I'll say it once again
All I want is the truth
Cause I sold my soul to you

I know I've got a handful and I'm done fit to burst
I know one fine lady who will always come first
And I've see you through the stars
And I'll say it through the stem
A little leprechaun
My little leprechaun

Oh!

I do believe the pain is deep

It kills my heartbeat and dulls society
I do believe the pain is real
It kills my heartbeat and dulls society

I don't feel no pleasure when there's only a pain
I like a hit of bugle and a toot of champagne
And you see me on fire
And you see me borderline
There is a world! (And its mine)
Ah!
I do believe the pain is deep
It kills my heartbeat and dulls society
I do believe the pain is real
It kills my heartbeat and dulls society
