Sad-Eyed People - Stiff Little Fingers

Sad-eyed people sat in bars

Sad-eyed People sat in bars

In the corner there’s the party with the birthday

Its quite happy but its quite sad because no one’s there

And no one cares

Least of all me

Sad-eyed people sat in bars

Sad-eyed People sat in bars

A mother and father consoling a daughter

The guy who threw her over, at the weekend, doesn’t matter

He’s as mad as a hatter

To pass on a jewel like you

Sad-eyed people sat in bars

Sad-eyed People sat in bars

A husband and wife never of the one-armed bandit

Hand it to them, they always almost win

And its something to talk about

I suppose

They’re all

Sad-eyed people sat in

Sad-eyed people sat in

Sad-eyed people sat in

Sad-eyed people sat in

They sat in bars

Over there there’s a young couple laughing

No-one notices or pays them any heed

Cos we’ve got what we need

Except for me

I’m a

Sad eyed boy who sits in

Sad eyed boy who sits in

Sad eyed boy who sits in bars
