A Visit To Newport Hospital

Havia um tempo em que a gente morava na vanThere used to be a time when we lived in the van
A gente ficava de boa com Janice, Liza e AnnWe used to loon about with Janice, Liza and Ann
Agora, olhando pra trás, parecia ser um tempo felizNow looking back it seemed to be a happy time
E assim a gente se engana, dizendo que não se importavaAnd so we kid ourselves we didn't really mind
Com as encrencas e a falta de granaThe hang-ups and the lack of bread

Éramos quatro naquela época, o grupo era UrielThere were four of us then, the group was Uriel
Tocávamos cinco noites por semana no Ryde Castle HotelWe played five nights a week at Ryde Castle Hotel
Passávamos o tempo fugindo de skinheads e da políciaWe spent our time avoiding skinheads and the law
Era uma liberdade que nunca tínhamos sentido antesIt was a freedom that we'd never felt before
E agora estamos fazendo isso em vezAnd now we're doing this instead

Era um jeito de viver que era completamente novoIt was a way of life that was completely new
E assim descobrimos que tínhamos bastante o que fazerAnd so we found that we had quite a lot to do
O tempo passava devagar e cada dia era bem parecidoThe time passed slowly and each day was much the same
A gente comia, amava e dormia, e ninguém tinha culpaWe ate and loved and slept and no-one was to blame
Por dizer coisas que era melhor deixar pra láFor saying things better left unsaid
