Dirty Motel - 1972

I fell into the fire
I had a sweet fill of desire
I got kicked out of the rugby club choir
Cause I couldn't sing any higher

I was dreaming of safari
I was dreading going to to the army
We all talked about the war
Now we made one up cause we're bored

In 1972 I was a real good man
They don't say that anymore no
They don't say that anymore
In 1972 I was a real good man
I had the world in my hands
I seemed to have a million plans

It was raining all summer
I spent Christmas with my mother
My brother wasn't there
You know he left to clear the air

There was a was a rumble in the jungle
Ali beat Foreman to the title
I thought I knew it all
Yet I hadn't learnt to fall

In 1972 I was a real good man
They don't say that anymore no
They don't say that anymore
In 1972 I was a real good man
I had the world in my hands
I seemed to have a million plans
