Bedsitter (Extended Version)
Sunday morning, going slow
I'm talking to the radio
Clothes and records on the floor
The memories of the night before
Out in Clubland, having fun
And now I'm hiding from the sun
Waiting for a visitor
Though no-one knows I'm here for sure
Dancing
Laughing
Drinking
Loving
And now I'm all alone in bedsit land
My only home
I think it's time to cook a meal
To fill the emptiness I feel
Spend my money going out
I've nothing in, I'm left without
Clean my teeth and comb my hair
And look for something new to wear
And start the nightlife over again
And kid myself I'm having fun
Dancing
Laughing
Drinking
Loving
And now I'm all alone in bedsit land
My only home
I look out from my window view
There's really nothing else to do
Read a book, maybe write a letter
Mother, things are getting better
Watch the mirror, count the lines
The battle scars of all the good times
Look around and I can see
A thousand people, just like me
Dancing
Laughing
Drinking
Loving
And now I'm all alone in bedsit land
My only home
Dancing (I'm waiting)
Laughing (for something)
I'm drinking (I'm only passing time)
Loving
And now I'm all alone in bedsit land
My only home
Dancing (I'm waiting)
Laughing (for something)
I'm drinking (I'm only passing time)
Loving
Do you look a mess?
Do you have a hangover?
Did you overdo the Lemonade?
Cut short on the Soda?
Did you do that dance
The Doctor told you that shouldn't do?
But you're only young
You should do that dance twice over
I know it's pretty early
But you still look great
Just ready for the beauty
That the make-up will create
Take a little blusher
Take a little paint
Put on the silver dress
The one that makes the young boys faint
I'm sitting on my bed
And I'm looking at the time
Have a cup of coffee
And you're feeling fine
Put on that new record
That you brought the other day
The words'll make you smile
You can dance the dust away
Make your single bed
And push the tea-leaves down the drain
Take a long, deep breath
And start the nightlife over again
Dancing
Laughing
Drinking
Loving
Dancing

I'm waiting for something
I'm only passing time
And now I'm all alone
And I don't care and
I don't care and
I'm waiting for something
I'm only passing time
And now I'm all alone
And I don't care and
I don't care, 'cause
I'm waiting for something (I don't care)
I'm only passing time
And now I'm all alone and (bedsitter, bedsitter)
I don't care and
I don't care and
I don't care and
I don't care and (I don't care)
I'm only passing time
Bedsitter

And I don't care (no)

I'm only passing time (time)
