Where do I begin with this instrumental? Some may think this song was written about a lady name Rosy, when actually it's the name of my oldest guitar.

LYRICS

Oh, John was born out of wedlock,
to a family in the frozen North,
in the early winter, 1982.
Not that he knew anything of it,
but they were poor as fucking shit,
and there was nothing that anyone could do.

The world is full of colour and the world is full of light.
The world is full of people who get paid.
But his family they weren't one of them,
all squandered in the night.
The 50ps were going down the drain.

His father an electricians mate,
some food was going on the plate,
his mum stayed at home as mothers do.
and John was not aware of it,
but oil and water do not mix,
and they were just a pair of mismatched fools.

The world is full of youngsters with no business to procreate,
their worldview way too small to make the grade.
and their children bear the brunt of all these juvenile mistakes,
that's just the way it is and shall remain.

Oh, the world was neon tinged but drab, 
the curtains brown the young ones mad,
the madness of the times was plain to hear.
But John was young and didn't know,
how far his start in life could take him,
Once he was awake and self aware.

Oh the world is filled with fears but you're just too young to know,
you can't yet see the way that things can be.
You lay within your childhood home protected from the snow,
but things go on that you just do not see.

Four years later things went bad,
his mum, his sister, not his dad,
were running down the hill to get away.
To get away from things not seen,
in Johnny boys most lucid dreams,
to get away and never once look back.

The world is full of colour and the world is full of light,
the world is full of people who escape,
escape from possibilities that never last the night,
the price too much for the women to pay.

Can you hear the Monsters that are hiding in the forest?
Can you hear the Monsters? They're just over there.
Be careful of your noise or the Monsters will hear you.
They'll hear you, the Monsters, are just over there.

Can you see the Monsters wandering around the houses?
Can you see the Monsters? They're right over here.
The Monsters are among us, the Monsters must of heard you.
They've heard you, the Monsters, in houses, right there.

John look at the Monsters I created for you.
John look at the Monsters writhing over there.
John, do me a favour, tell them about the Monsters.
The Monsters, just for you, created, right there.

John, have I ever told you that you're like a Monster?
At least you look just like the ones that I just saw.
I took that piece of weakness and created you this Monster.
A Monster, you're just like, stood there by the door.

With only a blunted knife you head into the forest,
hoping to keep all of the Monsters away,
With only a blunted knife you head into the forest,
hoping to keep all the Monsters away.

Won't Leave Again remaster 2022 by Beats Working (John Hardman)

Piano driven with a classical echo / influence - it cheers up towards the end :)
French Translation - PAS GRANDE SUPRISE
                                                                                                                                                                             She seldom laughs out loud now                   She’s not so very proud now 
Elle ne rit pas souvent maintentant               Elle n’est pas très fière maintentant
Appears so ill at ease                                        So very hard to please  
Semble si mal à l’aise                                        Si difficile à satisfaire                                                                                                                                                                      
Permits herself a smile                                     The shadow of beguile           
S’accorde un sourire	                                      L’ombre d’une séduction                                                                                                                                 

He seldom finds the time now                       To call “that friend of mine” now
Il trouve rarement le temps maintenant      Pour rapeller cet un des mes copaines maintenant
Trapped up in a circus                                      He swims towards the surface 
 Prisonier d’un cirque de farce	                     Il nage vers la surface  
Still struggling for air                                       He’s struggling to care 
Cherchant toujours son souffle	                     Il lui est de s’impliquer

God  knows it’s   - no big surprise   ,    one day to  -    open your eyes
Dieu sais c’est – pas grande surprise, un jour à ouvrir tes yeux
And wonder what you’re seeing,      And wonder where you’ve been
Et démandes toi ce que tu vois         Et demandes toi où tu as été
They know it’s   - no big surprise   ,           one day - to realise 
Ils savent que c’est – pas grande surprise, un jour - à realiser
That everything’s seem strange             and nothing’s really changed…………….
Que tous les choses semble étrange       et rien a vraiment changé
That said -         From time to time -   the tide will turn    - stars will align
Et bien,              de temps en temps - la mare tournera et les étoiles s’alignent
That’s better -   Blue’s in the sky -      The sun will set – guess the sun will rise
Ça c’est mieux – le ciel est bleu -        Le soliel se couchera – et je suppose se levera       
No big surprise--- God knows it’s ----- No big surprise ----- They know it’s --- No big surprise   
Pas grande suprise – Dieu sais c’est pas grande suprise – Ils savent que c’est – Pas grande surprise

No Big Surprise
