James Bone - The Ballad of Billy and Janey

Rain falls on dirty streets
Time don't wait for no man
And with the weight on our feet
We all fall down
Billy cries this world's so cruel
Work for nothing til you lose your senses
No matter where I roam
I want you around
Janey cries missionary times
Missionary rhymes away
Never in a million did I see it
Packing up and leaving
Searching for the perfect day
When nothing ever comes
To those who make threats in darkened alleyways
And all the dreamer's dreams don't rip apart at the seams
While we're looking for a perfect day
Now Billy's on the lonely stairs
Riding on tomorrow
Heartbeat stalking the air
Singing money doesn't talk it swears
And it's been swearing at me too long
But even if our house fell down
We could pitch up a tent on a tip on the other side of town
Janey just as long as you're around
You don't gotta worry
My heart will always be your home
And all the thoughts we bring
Will take their place in a higher society
And all the songs we sing
Will gather their pace achieve notoriety
Coz I believe in love but does it believe in me
When the longest day is the shortest night
There's nothing left to see
There is only one thing in this world
That don't come for free
Oh Janey, when I hear your call
Are you really calling me
Are you really calling me
Are you really calling me
