Lyrics

Hampton's Revenge

Try to imagine, if you can
This crazy old world went according to plan
Your tower of Babel rose to the Promised Land
Now Hampton could hold he could do no wrong
He asked who is my keeper, but he got it all wrong
Oh, Hampton's Revenge

Chorus

It wasn't enough that he lost at love
Once around the block just wasn't enough
Oh, Hampton's Revenge

The streets are lonely on a Saturday night
He sits alone and wonders if he's all right
The mainline is screaming from a house next door

The warmth of the ocean comes creeping on in
To wash away the ashes as the pain sets in
Oh, Hampton's Revenge

Chorus

He sits in a system that tells you when
To trouble with the past of your suburban kin
The patience of sorrow will rise to the skin

The days of old are long gone past
They fade into the mind just a little too fast
Oh, Hampton's Revenge

Chorus
