I’ll Show You Lyrics

I'll show you them now, those boys without cares (I'll show you them now)
Who'd swapped dirty pictures and talked during prayers (I'll show you them now)
They grew up with wisdom they'd stored from "those days" (I'll show you them now)
Nobody told them to get in, they must change

I'll show you something, come with me now
Step this way, step this way

The teachers laughed with them, class-idiot style (I'll show you them now)
After all, they weren't their kids, so why should they mind? (I'll show you them now)
Boyish good looks held the wrath back a while (I'll show you them now)
Then they were thumped in and drummed in and soon left behind (I'll show you them now)

Alcoholics, child-molesters, nervous wrecks and prima donnas
Jilted lovers, office clerks, petty thieves, hard drug-pursuers
Lonely tramps, awkward misfits, any one of these

[Instrumental Break]

Alcoholics, child-molesters, nervous wrecks and prima donnas
Jilted lovers, office clerks, petty thieves, hard drug-pursuers
Lonely tramps, awkward misfits, any one of these

Mortgaged-up families looked at first too mundane (I'll show you them now)
But it's funny how, with help, all the lucky ones changed (I'll show you them now)
Some of them couldn't, there had to be more (I'll show you them now)
Music, I don't know, films, something special perhaps (I'll show you them now)

I'll show you something, come with me now
Step this way, step this way, step this way

It's so hard to picture dirty tramps as young boys (I'll show you them now)
But if you see a man crying, hold his hand, he's my friend (I'll show you them now)
If these words sound corny, switch it off, I don't care (I'll show you them now)
Nearby, he's still crying, I won't smile while he's there (I'll show you them now)
(I'll show you them now)
I'll show you something
I'll show you something (I'll show you them now)
Step this way, step this way, step—
Nearby, he's still crying, I won't smile while he's there
