The Icicle Works
Permanent Damage
Fall in love with a sweet young thing
Big brown eyes, she had everything
Well she broke my heart
But she did me no permanent damage
Had a friend who was sinkin' low
Takin' all kinds o' things just to get him goin'
Watched him fall apart
But it did me no permanent damage...
Such a crazy world in which we live now
Y' gotta understand you don't receive
But you always have to give now
If I could I'd turn it 'round
So the little man gets to see the big man pay
Got a feelin' it won't be too long
Till we're singin' a different song
They're tryna grind us down but they're
Doin' no permanent damage
