Standing on the dock at Southampton

Trying to get to Holland or France

The man in the Mac

Said, "You've gotta go back"

You know, they didn't even give us a chance



Christ, you know it ain't easy

You know how hard it can be

The way things are going

They're gonna crucify me



Finally made the plane into Paris

Honeymooning down by the Seine

Peter Brown called to say

"You can make it okay

"You can get married in Gibraltar, near Spain"



Christ, you know it ain't easy

You know how hard it can be

The way things are going

They're gonna crucify me



Drove from Paris to the Amsterdam Hilton

Talking in our beds for a week

The newspeople said

"Say, what're you doing in bed?"

I said, "we're only trying to get us some peace"



Christ, you know it ain't easy

You know how hard it can be

The way things are going

They're gonna crucify me



Made a lightning trip to Vienna

Eating chocolate cakes in a bag

The newspapers said

"She's gone to his head

"They look just like two gurus in drag"



Christ, you know it ain't easy

You know how hard it can be

The way things are going

They're gonna crucify me



Caught the early plane back to London

Fifty acrons tied in a sack

The men from the press

Said, "we wish you success

"It's good to have the both of you back"



Christ, you know it ain't easy

You know how hard it can be

The way things are going

They're gonna crucify me

The way things are going

They're gonna crucify me

The way things are going

They're gonna crucify me
