about

I remember we were trying to get a rhythm section for the live gigs and I'd given a demo of this song to a bass player. He and his drummer mate were discussing whether to get involved and the bass player said to the drummer, "the riff though, get a load of the riff!" They never did play live with us.

lyrics

The Gentle One came to this land, the torch of love held in his hand
Some people gathered round to hear his simple songs of pain and fear
He bared his soul like a naked man and all could see he didn't give a damn
He bared his soul like a naked man and all could see he didn't give a damn
He didn't give a damn
He didn't give a damn
didn't give a damn
damn damn damn damn damn damn

There were those who criticized and from his words they tried to hide
But he had come into their minds and a nasty stain he left behind
The only ones who heard the truth were the suicides and wasted youth
yeah, the only ones who heard the truth were the suicides and wasted youth
They didn't give a damn
didn't give a damn
didn't give a damn
damn damn damn damn damn damn

And the only ones who heard the truth were the suicides and wasted youth
yeah, the only ones who heard the truth were the suicides and wasted youth
They didn't give a damn
didn't give a damn
didn't give a damn
damn damn damn damn damn damn
