Hear the bang of a brain
When she finds out you won't
Be comin' home again

Hear the ring of the telephone
When she comes home, finds out
She's alone and wants you home again

But you can't, you say you've had it
Up to here and you don't want
To see her tears

Off you go with another mother's daughter
And you think she'll treat you right
But you don't really care

Hear the bang of your brain
When you find out your woman's
Found another friend

And hear them sing when you make
A slip while on a trip
Find out by mistake that you've come home again

Hear the bang of your brain
When you find out you can't
Go home again

Hear the ring, two bodies in the night
Indulged in a lovely sin

You said goodbye, you feel like dyin'
But you can't cry, you won't live again

You say you're sorry you've come home
You're alone, but the woman
Won't let you in

Hear the bang of your brain
When you find out you can't
Go home again
