Lyrics:

Show me something worse

Than a child outside a church

Begging with a cardboard box

In a heartless town that hurts and mocks

And on a chair anywhere

I will sit down and cry

And close my eyes

Against the Christmas windows

Here in Christmas town

A young girl rests her tattered head

And the festive lights shine down

And if she were a kitten

Someone would take her home

But we've no pity for our own kind

Our hearts are stone

Our eyes are blind

Show me something more

Than the wolf at the door

All the begging in the cold

To keep the wolf from the fold

Show me something more

Than the an honest girl turned thief or wore

Under African sun or Dublin rain

Necessities remain the same

On the roof the old wood shed

The moon rested its pale head

Cost a woman on a screen

Who saw same things she'd never seen

And on a chair in a hospital

She sat down and cried

And close her eyes

Show me something more

Than the wolf at the door

All the begging in the cold

To keep the wolf from the fold

Show me something more

Than the an honest girl turned thief or wore

Under African sun or Dublin rain

Necessities remain the same

Haven't heard it for a long time. Just great to unwind with this great classic song. Brings back fond memories in my adult years

I'm drawing a picture. If there's anything left I'll draw one for you too. What the one boy say's to the other. It's on the back of the album cover!!!

This should DEFINITELY be on their compilations! I'm only just finding out (with great difficulty, I might add!) what their other singles are because they don't have a comprehensive greatest singles collection at all. Already I love how this is sounding, and it's so early for them too! I've mainly gone more for their late 80s to 90s singles, but this is a really good earlier one.

Damn, i just realized that I got so many lyrics wrong. Either way, I got the gist. EBTG is about the greatest thing I've ever heard. Ben Watt is amazing on the production, and Tracy Thorn is (as a friend I turned on to them put it) is as silky as Sade.

@slegnAfOytiC - esse disco marcou uma epoca, lembro que um amigo me emprestou ele por volta de 1986/87. A faixa When All's Well bombava nas radios...Bons tempos mesmo.

Still one of the best songs of all time. It evokes so much emotion still now, some 25 years after first hearing it. Tracey remains the BEST vocalist ever!
