Gene, "Left-Handed"
(1995)

I have one single success to my name
So take cover, I am coming out today
There is no turn of phrase, no easy way to say
"I'll find my feet
I'll choose my own name"

It's hard to be left-handed
But smile you're not the only one
I know you've been left stranded
Bruised, kicked
Lost your mother's love
But take it from me

Evil,
I've seen your face and I know just how you feel
Your Victorian descendant
It's illegal, that my clan just aren't seen as people
On the Isle of Man
I'll serve my time

It's hard to be left-handed
But smile you're not the only one
I know you've been left stranded
Bruised, kicked
Lost your mother's love
But take it from me
I will be here tomorrow


A rare example of britpoppers being subtle.
