Where Were You lyrics

Thanks for the dinner, thanks for the wine
It`s been a hell of an evening and I`ve had a good time
And now that it`s over, well let`s get it straight
Don`t think that I`m stupid, that I took the bait
I know you`re in trouble and you`re on the mat
So before you get busy, well here`s where it`s at

Chorus:
Where were you when I needed you
Where were you at the fall
Where were you when the light went out
You were nowhere at all

Danny`s a junkie and Susie`s on bail
And Jimmy`s still there in that Mexican jail
And while you`ve been sitting with your face in your food
Lucy`s out there in that Norwegian wood
You think you`ve got troubles, well what do you know
And as for the favour you know where to go

(chorus)

You were the hero, you were the best
I was the fool that got left with the mess
And while you were living it up on the coast
Yours truly was stuck here with a room full of ghosts
So hear what I tell you, you miserable clown
We`re all gonna help you, on your way down

(chorus x2)
