Adam Ant › Hell’s Eight Acres

Hell’s Eight Acres Lyric by Adam Ant

Happy as a punk in boystown
No more talk about doing
Going round the twist with heartbreak

Youre in need of protection
Not from me but from yourself
Going round the twist with heartbreak

Big brother wont like it
cos youre one of lifes takers
Go tell the spartans
Were on hells eight acres.

Walked with kings you know, self law
Pencil skirts and that gear
Going round the twist with heartbreak

Crouched and trembling with hate
Mixes both and dies both ways
Going round the twist with heartbreak

Just a little boy in a mans world
Dying on his feet you see
Going round the twist with heartbreak

Busy fighting the inch war
Paws and claws and black velvet
Going round the twist with heartbreak
