It's been a bloody stupid day   My baby called me up to say   Don't call me love, don't call me   It's not all she said      I truly love but I know   I'm bad for her, I'm bad and so   At least she may forgive me for my honesty      My friend came back from being abroad   He was rich and I was overawed   His ship came in   I'm standing on the harbour wall      Another friend, the one I love   Turns to me "Have you seen enough?"   "Let's hang about,   There's nothing like a sunset"      It's been a bloody stupid day   Don't leave the light on baby   My baby called me up to say   Don't leave the light on baby   I'll see you sometime maybe   Don't leave the light on baby   It finally dawned on me tonight   Best to go down without a fight   I know you will forgive me for my honesty
