Verse 1:

Anthony walked to his death

Because he'd thought he'd never feel this way again

If he goes back to the house

Then things would go from bad to worse what could he do?

He wants to remember things exactly as he left them on that Wednesday

And if there is something else beyond, he isn't scared because

It's bound to be less boring than today

It's bound to be less boring than tomorrow

 

Hilary walked to her death because she couldn't think of anything to

say

Everybody thought that she was boring, so they never listened anyway

Nobody was really saying anything of interest, she fell asleep

She was into S&M and bible studies

Not everyone's cup of tea she would admit to me

Her cup of tea she would admit to no-one

Her cup of tea she would admit to me

Her cup of tea she would admit to no-one

Hilary went to the catholic church because she wanted information

The vicar or whatever took her to one side and gave her confirmation

Saint Teresa's calling her, the church up on the hill is looking

lovely

But it doesn't interest, the only thing she wants to know is

How and why and where to go

How and why and where to follow

How and why and where to go

How and why and where to follow

But if you are feeling sinister

Go off and see a minister

He'll try in vain to take away the pain of being a hopeless

unbeliever

<Follow the same pattern for the rest of the song, it's quite easy to

follow from now on>
