Best intentions bring joyless droughts
Pack your hacksaw come push me out
When your dentures prevent your smile
These adventures will fill your eyes
With love
With love
You've been going see-through, could do with a little sun
I'd give my liver to see you abide and ride shotgun
The back-end scandal awaits me, just can't do it alone
Your sweetheart probably hates me, but I'll send you home
Your dome filled up with love
With love
With love
Fill your eyes with love
With love
With love
Love will find you out
Be sure love will find you out
Love will find you out
Be sure love will find you out
As anybody with a kind word would know
Gonna find you
Love will find you out
Be sure love will find you out
As anybody with a kind word would know
Gonna find you
Love will find you out
Be sure love will find you out
Fill your boots
Fill your spine
Fill your dome
Fill your eyes with love
Love will find you out
Be sure love will find you out
With love
Love will find you out
Be sure love will find you out
With love
Love will find you out
Be sure love will find you out
With love
Love will find you out
Be sure love will find you out
With love
Love will find you out
Be sure love will find you out
With love
Love will find you out
Be sure love will find you out
With love
Love will find you out
Be sure love will find you out
With love
Love will find you out
Be sure love will find you out

Well, give that girl my very best
Though it never made the grade
If it seems that it's just not enough to love
Then love lie down
And would you tell her
Not to talk as if I died
Though a tiny part just did
And would you tell her
I'm from a long line of survivors
And I'll be swinging with the kids
Keep your sympathy
Don't need the healing to start
You've gone
Gone and made a beautiful hole in my heart
In the corner of the room
In the room we used to love
Of the love we should say this
There were switches never flicked
Long away and far apart
That's how forest fires start
Start again it felt like this
Fresh and simple as a kiss
I bounce these feelings off the moon
The echoes don't come back
Keep your sympathy
Don't need the healing to start
You've gone
Gone and made a beautiful hole in my heart
Of the love, we should say this
There were, there were switches never flicked
Keep your sympathy
Don't need the healing to start
You've gone
Gone and made a beautiful hole in my heart
Keep your sympathy
Don't need the healing to start
You've gone

I haven't been myself of late
I haven't slept for several days
But coming home I feel like I
Designed these buildings I walk by
You know you drive me up the wall
I need to see your face that's all
You little sod, I love your eyes
Be everything to me tonight
Be everything to me tonight
I never know what I want but I know when I'm low that I
I need to be in the town where they know what I'm like and don't mind
I never know what I want but I know when I'm low that I
I need to be in the town where they know what I'm like and don't mind
I never know what I want but I know when I'm low that I
I need to be in the town where they know what I'm like and don't mind
I never know what I want but I know when I'm low that I
I need to be in the town where they know what I'm like and don't mind
I never know what I want but I know when I'm low that I
I need to be in the town where they know what I'm like and don't mind
I never know what I want but I know when I'm low that I
I need to be in the town where they know what I'm like and don't mind
The streets are full of goths and Greeks
I haven't seen my mum for weeks
But coming home I feel like I
Designed the buildings I walk by
You know you drive me up the wall
I need to see your face is all
You little sod, I love your eyes
Be everything to me tonight

Your eyes are just like black spiders
Your hair and dress in ribbons
Babycakes
In despair or incoherent, nothing in between
China white, my bride tonight
Smiling on the tiles
Bring that minute back
We never get so close as when the sunward flight begins
I share it all with you
Powder blue, oh
Stumble through the crowds together
They're trying to ignore us
That's okay
I'm proud to be the one you hold when the shakes begin
Sallow-skinned, starry-eyed
Blessed in our sin
Bring that minute back
We never get so close to death, makes you so alive
I share it all with you
Powder blue, oh
Yeah, yeah
Hey, yeah
Hey, yeah
Bring that minute back
We'll never get so close as when the sunward flight begins
I share it all with you

We blew the doors didn't we?
Pissed in their champagne
And did a real thing didn't we?
Gave ourselves a name
And peeled away the shame
I wanted to explode
To pull my ribs apart
And let the sun inside
To pull my ribs apart
And let the sun inside
Red stain blossoms
And all you have is kisses
And all you have is kisses
Red stain blossoms
And all you have is kisses
And all you have is kisses
And when the sunshine
Throwin' me a lifeline
Finds its way into my room
All I need is you
We blew the doors didn't we?
Pissed in their champagne
And did a real thing didn't we?
To pull my ribs apart
And let the sun inside
To pull my ribs apart
And let the sun inside
Red stain blossoms
And all you have is kisses
And all you have is kisses
Red stain blossoms
And all you have is kisses
And all you have is kisses
And we called that love
And we called that love
And we called that love
And we called that love
And we called that love
And we called that love
And when the sunshine
Throwin' me a lifeline
Finds it's way into my room
All I need is you
And when the sunshine
Throwin' me a lifeline
Finds its way into my room
All I need is you
And when the sunshine
Throwin' me a lifeline
Finds it's way into my room
All I need is you
And when the sunshine
Throwin' me a lifeline
Finds its way into my room
All I need is you
And when the sunshine
Throwin' me a lifeline
Finds its way into my room
All I need is you
And when the sunshine
Throwin' me a lifeline
Finds its way into my room
All I need is you
All I need is you
All you have is kisses

Drinking in order to feel
Thinking, reinventing the wheel
Kicking up mischief and feeding the fire
Kicking up mischief and walking the wire
Little fish you count for nothing
Do your thing until you die
Keep your powder dry
In order and line
Thinking and sinking the wine
Kicking up mischief and feeding the fire
Kicking up mischief and walking the wire
Little fish just keep on flapping
Do your thing until you die
Keep your powder dry
Kicking up mischief and walking the wire
Kicking up mischief and feeding the fire

I leaned on you today
I regularly hurt but never say
I nearly wore the window through
Where was air sea rescue?
The cavalry with tea and sympathy
You were there, puncture repair
I leaned on you today
I regularly hurt but never say
You patched me up and sent me on my way

Pull the final splinters
Of missing picture winters
You have to give yourself a break
What's the fascination?
With lovers at the station
You have to tear yourself away
The dream again nobody understands
Walkin' through the long grass on your hands
It's not a job to do today
Sleep it off
Words to make her stay, you said
Leave me and the plants die
A panic smile across your face
Corrugated brow line
An' hissing bitter punchline
Call when you can tie your lace
The dream again nobody understands
Walkin' through the long grass on your hands
It's not a job to do today
Sleep it off
Sleep it off
Sleep it off
Hissing bitter punchline
Hissing bitter punchline
Bitter punchline
Hissing bitter punchline
Hissing bitter punchline
Bitter punchline
The dream again nobody understands
Walkin' through the long grass on your hands
It's not a job to do today
You rule my world
You rule my world my brother
You rule my world
You rule my world compadre
(Hey, hey, hey, hey)

I'll be the corpse in your bathtub
Useless
I'll be as deaf as a post
If you hold me like a newborn
Whisper what you feel
My badly strung declaration
To You
You'll spend the end of your days
Gently smiling like a newborn
Love not by degrees
Press your lips
To my eyes
Taste my tears
On your tongue,
Pull the blinds
Play our song
Nothings changed
Nothing could be wrong.
Scream in the night
Kick and skrike
Like a newborn
Holding me shaking
Awake in the dark
All of these promises
Kept and unbroken
Tracing the scars
Tracing the scars
Even and cold
As we both become older.
Your arms bound about me
The hush in your voice.
The warmth of your fingers
Entwined around mine
In the eve of our lives

Don't mix your drinks
Don't mix with him
It will kill you one day
Good advice, sound advice
Why can't you be
Like him, like me
Look what you could achieve
I'm coming cap in hand
Begging you to listen
Something draws me in
And I just can't christen it
Just can't christen it
Don't mix your drinks
Don't mix with him
It will kill you one day
Good advice, sound advice
You need to be
Like this, like me
Look what you could achieve
I'm coming cap in hand
Begging you to listen
Something draws me in
And I just can't christen it

Grace under pressure
Cooling palm across my brow
Eyes of an angel
Lay me down
Grace under pressure
Cooling palm across my brow
Eyes of an angel
Lay me down
Grace under pressure
Cooling palm across my brow
Eyes of an angel
Lay me down
Grace under pressure
Cooling palm across my brow
Eyes of an angel
Lay me down
We still believe in love so fuck you
We still believe in love so fuck you
We still believe in love so fuck you
We still believe in love so fuck you
We still believe in love so fuck you

Lost in a lullaby
Side of the road
Melt in a memory
Slide in a solitude
Not 'til I can read by the moon
Am I going anywhere
Not 'til I can read by the moon
I blow you a kiss
It should reach you tomorrow
As it flies from the other side of the world
From my room in my fugitive motel
Somewhere in the dust bowl
It flies from the other side of the world
"I'm tired" I said
"You always look tired" she said
"I'm admired" I said
"You always look tired" she said
Not 'til I can read by the moon
Am I going anywhere
Not 'til I can read by the moon
I blow you a kiss
It should reach you tomorrow, reach you tomorrow
As it flies from the other side of the world
From my room in my fugitive motel
Somewhere in the dust bowl, somewhere in the dust bowl
It flies from the other side of the world
Curtains stay closed
But everyone knows
You hear through the walls in this place
Cigarette holes for every lost soul
To give up the ghost in this place
Give me strength
Give me wings
I blow you a kiss
It should reach you tomorrow, reach you tomorrow
As it flies from the other side of the world
From my room in my fugitive motel
Somewhere in the dust bowl, somewhere in the dust bowl

[8B] Space, Age-in baby
[TS] Right right right right
[8B] One time
[TS] Beyotch!
[8B] Yeah, you know how they like it baby, nigga you can't retire!
Verse One: Too $hort, Eightball
From nineteen-eighty, through eighty-eight
I Don't Stop Rappin like my first tapes
When I was broke, I used to sell em instantly (instantly)
One look, you could tell it was the pimp in me (pimp in me)
In eighty-nine, I went on tour with Eazy-E (Eazy-E)
A bunch of fine bitches tryin to sleep with me
Every night, sold out, turnin young hoes
Tell her baby, no doubt, stick this dick in yo' mouth
I smoked a lot of weed, I said a lot of rhymes
Always fucked up in niggaz bitches all the time
Now I'm ridin on twenties wearin nice clothes
But ain't nuttin like pimpin hoes, and ridin Vogues
I live a good life, in my pursuit of happiness
I'm so glad, to get to the point of havin this
Opportunity, for you and me to pass it on
Two years ago, I thought it'd be my last song
Me, Squeaky, Flex and J, on Saratoga Street
Smokin white boys, bumpin dopefiend beats
Eighty-eight, my pockets wasn't straight, but I was makin it
Niggaz like Lil' Tim was out there ballin sellin cakes n shit
I was right there, on the Mob Circle, writin raps
All about my snaps, tryin to put Ball and G on the map
Nowadays I own my shit and bone bad bitches
Kickin it with rich niggaz in rollers, and candy sixes
Deliverin hot shit like Pizza Hut for them hardcore thugs
Niggaz who pimp bitches and hit the highway with them drugs
Feel my flow, mix it in witcha chronic main
$hort Dawg, I don't know why you tryin to leave this game
State to state, plenty hoes and plenty money to make
Writing raps, makin more than them niggaz movin weight
The game been good to me, and I know that muhfucka bless you
Thanks for passin game, now let's get out here and make this loot
Chorus: Too $hort, Eightball, MJG
[TS] I won't stop rappin, I don't stop rappin
[TS] I got too much money bitch I can't stop rappin
[8B] We some presidential players, with money by the layers
[8B] Ain't nuthin you broke ass niggaz do that can fade us
[TS] I won't stop rappin, I don't stop rappin
[TS] I got too much money bitch I can't stop rappin
[MJ] I drive fast cars, eat lunch by lakes
[MJ] and meet a hundred different bitches when I drop new tapes
Verse Two: MJG, Too $hort
I had to sacrifice, get things right
In this rap life, I paid my dues
Learn how to crawl, before I walk
Then I learned how to tie my shoes
Tryin crime, but it just didn't work for me
Matter of fact it did it worse for me
Gettin eyes scarred, bein weak one time ya hard
It can only do hurt to me
So I sucked up my peer pressure, and my pride
And realized that this rap shit was gon help me to survive
Stay alive, go with the flow but don't be no muhfuckin fool
Hell this music thing is all I got, I ain't makin straight A's in school
And ain't wind up to be dumber nigga, only to be different
So all the shit that you think we are, the shit that we isn't
When you raised up, where I come from, make it out is a blessing
Cause half the cats, where I come from, don't ever learn they lessons
My first love, even before I had a daughter, or a lady
Was rappin, sweet lyrics, I love you, my baby
MJG, what you see, on TV, is fame
But the rapper I let loose almost anything, I love this game
I won't stop rappin, I don't stop rappin
I make too much money bitch I can't stop rappin
I live the fast life of a MC
And I sell a lot of records makin pimp beats
I could do a show tonight and make ten G's
Fuck til the mornin, sleep late and smoke weed
Three cars in my garage, truck in the driveway
I always, get my dick sucked on the highway
Verse Three: Eightball, MJG
My way (pimp til I dieee) fuck a hoe
Unless that hoe is breakin me off some dough, to hit the studio
Blowin, niggaz ain't knowin, how far this shit is goin
I wrote all my shit, but niggaz always talkin bout what I owe them
But I'm gon' show them, real niggaz stand on they own ten toes
So I'ma make all the money, and try my best to fuck all these hoes
Friend or foe, a bitch or hoe, rich or po'
Eightball got flow, MJG
Here comes the one they call the P-I, M-P, never will retire
The tree-high, green leaf, helps me to get higher
Eightball and MJG, Too $hort, we all must be
The pimps of the industry, shit people pretend to be
Fuck so why should we, settle down
Leave the kitchen put the kettles down
Stop from fillin all you hoes
Give up the life of trues and vogues
Hell no, it ain't gon' happen, this shit too deep
So I hooked up with my comrades so we can all get rich, nigga
Chorus
[8B] Yea yea, one time, for your motherfuckin mind
[TS] Pimp shit bitch
[8B] Eightball and MJG, now what you weigh me
[TS] $hort Dawg in the house, slammin Cadillac do's, pimpin hoes
[8B] Nuthin but the real shit, nine-eight, for these tricks it's too late
[TS] It's that old school pimpin all the way from Memphis, to Oakland
[8B] Straight smokin baby, fryin em up fat
[TS] Atlanta to Houston, we still doin it like this
[8B] Yea, New York to L.A.
[TS] Beyitch!
[8B] Hah, that's right, Space Age forever, nigga
[TS] T-Mix on the funk
[8B] Dangerous Music, uhh
[TS] Suave House

Dear friends
You are angels and drunks
You are may child
Old friends
You stuck a pin in my pile of sin
And this is a note for a road sign
Cuttin' the breeze in this tennesee sundown
Came the sounds of the voices I know
I've been pondering trees
On the steeliest come down
But now a moment I'm home
I've got bluster enough
For the sales of a clipper
And the truth never frays a good yarn
But it struck me to say while so far away
You are with me today
You are here are in my head, in my heart
Dear friends
You are angels and drunks
You are may child
Old friends
You stuck a pin in my pile of sin

My high priest is folded neatly
Back in your box, oh Lord
Gone the song he sang so sweetly
Back in your box, oh Lord
Found myself astride a tiger
Lifted my head just like you said
Drown me now in down of eider
Get me to bed, oh Lord
Lay my bones in the cobblestones
Lay my bones in neat little rows
Lay my bones in the cobblestones
Lay my bones in neat little rows
Angels and idols spiralling wild
Wind in your necks, oh Lord
Landed gentry line up behind me
Wind in your necks, oh Lord
Smokey progress, backroom sages
Let me back in, put back the pin
Now I've found those torn out pages
Can't read the text, oh Lord
Lay my bones in the cobblestones
Lay my bones in neat little rows
Lay my bones in the cobblestones
Lay my bones in neat little rows
In the house where they grew you
There were secrets and mistakes
That the eyes that see through you
Would give anything to erase
But picture them counting your fingers
Waiting for the focus of your eyes
No, no, don't point fingers
Fingers are for pointing at the sky
No, no, don't point fingers
Fingers are for pointing at the sky
Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Lay my bones in the cobblestones
Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Lay my bones in neat little rows
Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Lay my bones in the cobblestones
Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Yah, da, da, da, da, da, da, da

You're a law unto yourself
And we don't suffer dreamers
But neither should you walk the earth alone
So with finger rolls and folding chairs
And a volley of streamers
We can be there for tweaks and repairs
Should you come back home
We got open arms for broken hearts
Like yours my boy, come home again
Tables are for pounding here
And when we've got you surrounded
The man you are will know the boy you were
And you're not the man who fell to earth
You're the man of La Mancha
And we've love enough to light the street
'Cause everybody's here
We got open arms for broken hearts
Like yours my boy, come home again
We got open arms for broken hearts
Like yours my boy, come home again
Everyone's here
Everyone's here
The moon is out looking for trouble
And everyone's here
Everyone's here
Everyone's here
The moon wants a scrap or a cuddle
And everyone's here
We got open arms for broken hearts
Like yours my boy, come home again
We got open arms for broken hearts
Like yours my boy, come home again
Everyone's here
Everyone's here
Everyone's here
Come home again
The moon is out looking for trouble
The moon wants a scrap or a cuddle
The moon is face down in a puddle

Shifting my weight now from foot to foot
What did she see in this man
I'm not superstitious but if I can get
This ball in the basket, then he'll wake up dead
Your sweet reassurances don't change the fact
That he's better looking than me
Yet he'd look ideal 'neath the wheels of a car
Oh, Mexican standoff, I wish I was hard, yeah
Yeah
Your sweet reassurances don't change the fact
That he's better looking than me
Yet he'd look ideal 'neath the wheels of a car

You're a girl in this vicinity
I'm a dog without a collar on
This cattle-market cabaret
Is the Sabbath every Saturday
I'm full of wit and chivalry
Until you've given in to me
I'm a dog without a collar on
You're a girl in this vicinity
Bitten by the tail-fly
Too many times to change
It's a silent taxi ride away
But it's everything to get you there
You'll know when you are bitten-shy
But still you will return my stare
From a crush of blushing brides-to-be
You barely have a blossom on
Your eyes betray your diaries
You're a girl in this vicinity
Bitten by the tail-fly
Too many times to change
I'll take you home

Were you crushed?
Did I rush you?
All my time is yours
My twisted heart is yours
The faithless shit is yours
The shameless fits of love
That only smother you for moments
'Til I fold them up and leave
All yours
Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to know
Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to know
Show your scars
Not to rush you
The hieroglyphic hints
In all the toilet scrawl
Guilty little pins
In all the things I never talk about
Are spilling with the gin
Taste how tough you are
All yours
Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to know
Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to ask, didn't you?
Oh you had to know

And if it rains all day
Call on you, I'll call on you
Like I used to
Slide down beside and wrap you in stories
Tailored entirely for you
I'll remind you
We exchanged a vow
I love you, I always will
(Ooh)
A call girl with yesterday eyes
Was our witness and priest
Stockport supporters club kindly supplied us a choir
Your vow was your smile
As we move down the aisle
Of the last bus home
And this is where I go
Just when it rains
Blinking and stoned
Rain in your hair
You only smoke
'Cause it's something to share
Singing, "Bring on the night
To have and to hold
The sodium light turning silver to gold."
Spitfire thin and strung like a violin, I was
Yours was the face with a grace from a different age
But you were the sun in my Sunday morning
You were the sun in my Sunday morning
Telling me never to go
So I'll live on the smile
And move down the aisle
Of the last bus home
And if you're running late
This is where I'll go

I stretched out my arms
And my feet left the floor
And how all fifteen (ahem) stone flew to you

Found a hole and slipped on through
Kissed the stone and learnt the lines
Jumped the cue all the time forgetting you
Best dishevelled lover 3yrs running
Coming second to
A picket fence white 9-to-5 who's
Just alive
Beyond repair, there is nothing to say
Save some fading regrets
Yet I can't be without this
Beyond repair, there is nothing to say
Save some fading regrets
Yet...
I need you to be
(to be around)
I need you to be
(to be around)
I want you to say
(you'll be around)
I need you to be
(to be around)
Spit-shone lies, juggled debts
Planted flags and made regrets
Muddled through all the time
Forgetting you
Cut your teeth and breezed on to
another brothers fickle ways
So why amazed when it don't
Come out your way
Beyond repair, there is nothing to say
Save some fading regrets
Yet I can't be without this
Beyond repair, there is nothing to say
Save some fading regrets
Yet...
I need you to be
(to be around)
I need you to be
(to be around)
I want you to say
(you'll be around)
I need you to be

All the fallen angels
Roostin' in this place
Count back the weeks on worried fingers
Virgin mother whatserface
You don't need to sleep alone
You bring the house down
Choose your favourite shoes
And put your blues on cruise control
All the gelded mongrels
Bare their teeth for you
Drag your feathers 'cross the dance floor
Throw your shapes electric blue
You don't need to sleep alone
You bring the house down
Choose your favourite shoes
And keep your blues on cruise control
Don't fall to pieces
Don't fall to pieces
You don't need to sleep alone
You bring the house down
Choose your favourite shoes

All my saints have taken bribes
Singing, "Going, going, gone."
All the angels taken dives
Leaving you the only one
If I loose a sequin here and there
More salt than pepper in my hair
Can I rely on you when all the songs are through
To be for me the everthere, everthere?
Slide into another book
Now and then laugh out loud
Throw that very dirty look
Which says, "Okay, stop staring at me now."
If I loose the sequence here and there
Less derring do than quiet care
Can I rely on you for a good talking to
To be for me the everthere, everthere?
If I loose a sequin here and there
And take my time on every stair
Can I rely on you when this whole thing is through

The whole towns slippin down a hill.
Like the spine of something dead.
Slide in shadow cobble-creep.
Burn your mark and leave.
The trench conventions yellow eyes
Follow her the local flower
The girls a priest (to me at least)
Since baptism peroxide.
And fear is not respect. Correct.
But it's the best you're gonna get
Sharp blow to the bridge of the nose

Fell like a crippled crow
Spinning through and breaking branches
I'm in a bad way
Call my friends, they'll know what to do
I'm a better friend
Than I've ever been a lover
And that's not saying much
But I'm not saying much today
In this cellular age
Phone sex is too expensive
Not as handsome as my brother
But I've been lucky with disease
And yes, I'm a better friend
Than I've ever been a lover
And that's not saying much
But I'm not saying much today

Rest

There was lying at the table, crying on the stairs
A raven on the gable singing "Jesus doesn't care"
A women at the window, with her hands on her hips
Staring out across the ocean like the prow of a ship
No blinking or emotion like the prow of a ship
Just endeavour and devotion like the prow of a ship
Ahh Ooooh
Rest in your bed
Ooooh Oooh
McGreggor's dead
The kids are in the kitchen, carving up the will
While the long line of limousines snake down the hill
They'll keep them waiting, they're shaking hands
With the prodigal and pompous who knew the man
Father figures and mother fuckers who knew the man
God's torment at the party as if God knew the man
Ahh Ooooh
Rest in your bed
Ooooh Oooh
McGreggor's dead
Recall his lies
Pick up the pen
Record his reign

What's got into me? Can't believe myself
Must be someone else
Must be someone else
Must be
Any day now
How's about getting out of this place? Any ways
Got a lot of spare time
Some of my youth and all of my senses on overdrive
What's got into me? Can't believe myself
Must be
Any day now
How's about getting out of this place? Any ways
Got a lot of spare time
Some of my youth and all of my senses on overdrive
Don't play Coltrane
You will sleep at the wheel
Eyes on horizon

Come as you are, sweetheart
Come as you are
You know you've got nothing to prove
I'll put you to bed you can let it all go
You've been playing too rough lately
You burn too bright
You live too fast
This can't go on too long
You're a tragedy starting to happen
Just as you are, perfect
Just as you are
I'll give you the time you deserve
Don't make those promises
Don't tell me again
That dust is gonna settle your nerves
You burn too bright
You live too fast
This can't go on too long
You're a tragedy starting to happen
You burn too bright
You live too fast
This can't go on too long
You're a tragedy starting to happen
You burn too bright
You live too fast
This can't go on too long

A sky as black as regret
Is rolling aside for the blue
Impossible face to forget
These feelings belong in a zoo
She brings the morning
She, she brings the morning sun
So lost in the sound of her voice
I don't even hear the words
When she says, "Come on get out.
The past will find us out.
Come on get out please
And don't breathe a word."
She brings the morning
She, she brings the morning sun
But all this an imagined affair
While sitting in a bar spilling in a bar
I drink until the doorman is a Christmas tree
And my speech is just a gas leak
She brings the morning

My brother, fear is only natural
You need to chill your fucking bones
Lay her down, drink this in
While you can
Whisper, rest easy
There's a belly full of life
Watch her, she's dreaming
Of a belly full of life
Right there on the pillow
This is why we are here
Rest easy
This is why we are here
Rest easy
You know that everything is finite
You know you too are not alone
Soothe her brow, drink her smile
Watch her dream
You'll feel Christ like
When it's breathing in and out
And you'll feel Christ like
When it's breathing in and out
Right there on the pillow
This is why we are here

Someone's staking out my house
So don't be sitting drunk
Outside my window
'cause when your love is love blown down
You must live with yourself
Someone's opening my mail
So don't be sending us it through the post
Someone's is tapping my phone you know?
So stop your crank calls telling me you love me
When your love is love blown down
You must live with yourself
'cause when your love is love blown down

A freeze of you
Is with me now
A freeze of you
With knitted brow
A freeze of you
Asking how I could
A fury climb
To prove myself
A fury climb
To a whisper grass shelf
With God above
And not much else
The air gets thin I
Came down gave in I
The air gets thin I
Came down gave in I
The game I'm in
I'll win or lose
The simple love
You gave to me
On quiet days
A freeze of you
The air gets thin I
Came down gave in I
The air gets thin I
Came down gave in I
The air gets thin I
Came down gave in I
The air gets thin I
Came down gave in I
Granite cold detached
And granite cold I stood
Came down

Holy Bravado
Tinsel Mikado
Waving from windows
Nobody you know
I needed to see you
Remember the feeling
Strange what the sun through the trees through the window
Can do to you
Holy Bravado
Tinsel Mikado
Nobody you know
Sorry I called you
Sorry I called you

It's crawling with idiot
I'm itching to leave
I'm soft with fatigue I need something
I've never seen anything quite like you
In here
Come on it's not serious
I just need arms tonight
You're blue collar pride
And you're loose cotton cool
You're wilting a little
Nothing grows down here
Come on it's not serious
I just need arms tonight
Chrome
Smoke
Heat

Borrowed air a baby breathes
Falling helicopter seed
I forget which tree
Advice from friends less drunk than me
A falling helicopter seed
I forget which tree
Borrowed air a baby yawns
Kiss that doesn't wake you up
Borrowed air a baby breathes
A falling helicopter seed

Lay down your cross
Cross off your day

Sweet Jesus, I'm on fire
She has the sweetest, darkest side
And when it comes into her eyes
I know iron and steel couldn't hold me
Good God, I'm easy bruised
But so often a moth to her flame
And the things that she's asked me to do
Would see a senior saint forgetting his name
I have an audience with the Pope
And I'm saving the world at eight
But if she says she needs me, she says she needs me
Everybody's going to have to wait, ah, ah
Where could she be?
Was that a minute or an hour?
Where could she be?
She turns the hours into days
Kill the phone, cover the cage
And wait for the doorbell to ring
Where could she be?
No, she won't come running
Where could she be?
The world is turning at her pace
Gonna kill the phone, cover the cage
And wait for the doorbell to ring
I have an audience with the pope
and I'm saving the world at eight
but if she says she needs me
she says she needs me everybody is going to have to wait
I have an audience with the Pope
And I'm saving the world at eight
But if she says she needs me, she says she needs me
Everybody's going to have to wait
I have an audience with the Pope
And I'm saving the world at eight
But if she says she needs me, she says she needs me
Everybody's going to have to wait, ah, ah
I have an audience with the Pope
And I'm saving the world at eight
But if she says she needs me, she says she needs me
Everybody's going to have to wait

Al had the guile and the sideways smile
Bad boy and God
Beck knew how to push a boy to blush
Known as the fox
Tom came out in June to a crowded room
No one was shocked
Ed, Ed had the hair, the blues and shoes
Got me arrested once
"Will I ever get this song off my lips?"
Is what you said
We were at each other's buttons and zips
In the blossom shed
Joe wanted to go before he could
Joe's doing good
Cath, Cath was my all and every day
She married in May
"Will I ever get this song off my lips?"
Is what you said
We were at each other's buttons and zips
In the blossom shed
"Will I ever get this song off my lips?"
Is what you said
We were at each other's buttons and zips
In the children's park
"Will I ever get this song off my lips?"

I have a drop-leaf window
With cats and broken yards
Sunflowers and paint cans
And stolen shopping carts
And nothing to be proud of
And nothing to regret
All of that to make as yet
All of that to make as yet
I have a single heartbreak
I celebrate and mourn
A single shining sister
And all the tricks of dawn
A single yellow duvet
A single switch to flick
But a thousand boxes yet to take
A thousand boxes yet to take
And Jesus is a Rochdale girl
And forty-five CDs
Got a house that you can smoke in
So all my friends found me
And they found me full of myself
And bloody-minded will
And as yet a box to fill

How dare the Premier ignore my invitations?
He'll have to go
So, too, the bunch he luncheons with
It's second on my list of things to do
At the top is stopping by
Your place of work and acting like
I haven't dreamed of you and I
And marriage in an orange grove
You are the only thing in any room you're ever in
I'm stubborn, selfish and too old
I sat you down and told you how
The truest love that's ever found
Is for oneself
You pulled apart my theory
With a weary and disinterested sigh
So yes I guess I'm asking you
To back a horse that's good for glue
And nothing else
But find a man that's truer than
Find a man that needs you more than I
Sit with me a while
And let me listen to you talk about
Your dreams and your obsessions
I'll be quiet and confessional
The violets explode inside me
When I meet your eyes
Then I'm spinning and I'm diving
Like a cloud of starlings

They're pacing Piccadilly in packs again
And moaning for the mercy of a never come rain
The sun's had enough and the simmering sky
Has the heave and the hue of a woman on fire
Shop shutters rattle down and I'm cutting the crowd
All scented and descending from the satellite towns
The neon is graffiti singing make a new start
So I look for a plot where I can bury my broken heart
No, I know I won't forget you
But I'll forget myself if the city will forgive me
The man on the door has a head like Mars
Like a baby born to the doors of the bars
And surrounded by steam with his folded arms
He's got that urban genie thing going on
He's so mercifully free of the pressures of grace
Saint Peter in satin, he's like Buddha with mace
He's so mercifully free of the pressures of grace
Saint Peter in satin, he's like Buddha with mace
No, I know I won't forget you
But I'll forget myself if the city will forgive me
No, I know I won't forget you
But I'll forget myself if the city will forgive me
Do you move through the room with a glass in your hand
Thinking too hard about the way you stand
Are you watching them pair off and drinking 'em long?
Are you falling in love every second song?
Do you move through the room with a glass in your hand?
Thinking too hard about the way you stand
Are you watching them pair off and drinking them long?
Are you falling in love
Are you falling in love
Are you falling in love every second song?
No, I know I won't forget you
But I'll forget myself if the city will forgive me
No, I know I won't forget you

I walked with the river in kind of a dream
Hand in hand, the all-knowing river and me
To the clamour of rushes and deeply barren trees
A drunk making blossom, the blush to be seen
I told him my sorrows and broken-down dreams
Confessed every lie, replayed every scene
He openly wept as he listened to me

The fix is in
There's a nag gonna dance home at Epsom
The fix is in
Can't wait to see how it upsets them
Too many times we've been postally pipped
We've loaded the saddles, the mickeys are slipped
We're swapping the turf for the sand
And the surf and the sin
'Cause the fix, the fix is in
The fix is in
The odds that I got were delicious
The fix is in
The jockey is cocky and vicious
The redoubtable beast has had Pegasus pills
We'll buy him the patch in the Tuscany hills
And the vino de Vici will flow like a river in spring
Now the fix, the fix is in
The fix is in
The snaps of the steward's so candid
The fix is in
Yes, our pigeons have finally landed
The Donaghue sisters will meet us in France
In penguins and pearls we'll drink and we'll dance
Till the end of our days
'Cause it ain't left to chance that we win

Been climbing trees I've skinned my knees
My hands are black, the sun is going down
She scruffs my hair in the kitchen steam
She's listening to the dream I weaved today
Crosswords through the bathroom door
While someone sings the theme-tune to the news
And my sister buzzes through the room leaving perfume in the air
And that's what triggered this
I come back here from time to time
I shelter here some days
A high-back chair, he sits and stares
A thousand yards and whistles marching-band
Kneeling by and speaking up
He reaches out and I take a massive hand
Disjointed tales that flit between
Short trousers and a full dress uniform
And he talks of people ten years gone like I've known them all my life
I scattered black and whites
I come back here from time to time
I shelter here some days
I come back here from time to time

Are we having the time of our lives?
Are we having the time of our lives?
Are we coming across clear?
Are we coming across fine?
Are we part of the plan here?
Are we having the time of our lives?
Are we coming across clear?
Are we coming across fine?
Are we having the time of our lives?
Are we part of the plan here?
We had the drive and the time on our hands
One little room and the biggest of plans
The days were shaping up frosty and bright
Perfect weather to fly
Perfect weather to fly
Poundin' the streets where my father's feet
Still ring from the walls
We'd sing in the doorways or just bicker and row
Just figuring how we were wired inside
Perfect weather to fly
So in looking to stray from the line
We decided instead we should pull out the thread
That was stitching into this tapestry vile
And why wouldn't you try?
Perfect weather to fly
We had the drive and the time on our hands

That was stitching into this tapestry vile
And why wouldn't you try?

The times they are a changing back
You know the heat is rising
I heard a million knuckles crack
Is it so surprising?
I'm so sick of waiting
And I know you feel the same
I'm not getting any younger
And I know you feel the same
So everyone dance as if you didn't care
And everyone move, pretend it isn't there
Take a deep breath on leaving the floor
And lock all the doors
Its going to be a long, long war
I'm so sick of waiting
And I know you feel the same
I'm not getting any younger
But the soldiers are
So everyone dance as if you didn't care
And everyone move, pretend it isn't there
Take a deep breath on leaving the floor
And lock all the doors
It's going to be a long, long war
Long war, long war, long war

Lippy kids on the corner again
Lippy kids on the corner begin
Settling like crows
Though I never perfected the simian stroll
The cigarette scent it was everything then
Do they know those days are golden?
Build a rocket boys
Build a rocket boys!
One long June
I came down from the trees
and kerbstone cool
You were a freshly painted angel
Walking on walls
Stealing booze and hour-long hungry kisses
And nobody knew me at home anymore
Build a rocket boys!
Build a rocket boys
Build a rocket boys!
Lippy kids on the corner again
Lippy kids on the corner begin
Settling like crows
And I never effected that simian stroll
Do they know those days are golden?
Build a rocket boys
Build a rocket boys!
One long June
I came down from the trees
And kerbstone cool
You were a freshly painted angel
Walking on walls
Stealing booze and hour-long hungry kisses

Tied this letter to the red balloon
Flew this letter off across the ruse
Along with all the plans I made
Ooh...
Over crippled cranes and twisted steel
Deadlines overgrown and missing wheels
I told you so communicate
Ooh...
Told you so
Told you so
The biggest of mistakes can be forgiven
But a snowball of little white lies will crush your house
From the razor wire in old Iraq
Oil is what you make the nation's flag
Pray you never sleep again
Ooh...
Oh and laughable the crying shame
Oh the mark I made against your name
I hope this finds you less than sane
Ooh...
Told you so
Told you so
For you to think that history's rewritten
You'd have to think the dead will be forgotten
Your snowball of little white lies has crushed our house
When the pills you take
No longer help you
You're fading in your chair
And would've met him
We see the lightning
You hear the birdsong
You hear the voices you've been holding off for so long
Words around you
And then a hurricane
A hundred thousand souls
And everyone in pain
We'll come and visit you
We'll come and visit you

Last of the men in hats hops off the coil
And a final scene unfolds inside
Deep in the rain of sparks behind his brow
Is a part replayed from a perfect day
Teaching her how to whistle like a boy
Love's first blush
Is this making sense?
What am I trying to say?
Early evening June
This room and a radio play
This I need to save
I choose my final thoughts today
Switching off with you
All the clocks give in
And the traffic fades
And the insects like, like a neon choir
The instant fizz
Connection made
And the curtains sigh
In time
With you
You, the only sense the world has ever made
Early evening June
This room and radio play
This I need to save
I choose my final scene today
Switching off
Ran to ground for a while there
But I came off pretty well
You, the only sense the world has ever made
This I need to save
A simple trinket locked away
I choose my final scene today

There's a ladder tear in my high ideals
Like I took a chair on the battlefield
And any noble fire that was burning in my chest
Is acid in my belly at the very best
There's a bayonet in my family things
It was made in the USA to defend the King
With all the sinew, the thrust
And all the bones it splintered are dust
It's passed from hand to hand with the wedding rings
Oh, settle down little heart of mine
Oh, settle down, you do double time
You're so far away but she's right here by your side

I can't undo the day
It won't go, won't go under the rug
I pull out the stops
And you, you pull the plug
These are sober days and I know it can't be
But I'll miss you the way you miss the sea
Just (Don't look down) Keep staring like you've never seen the stars
(Don't look down) If you need me to remind you who you are
(Don't look down) Little blossom there's the shiniest soul
(Oh) Just behind those eyes
No longer my affair
Well I can't go there just yet
So I've come to love and trust those friends
That are holding your net
Falling off used to mean
Maybe grazing a knee
And I'll miss you the way you miss the sea
Just (don't look down) Keep staring like you've never seen the stars
(Don't look down) If you need me to remind you who you are
(Don't look down) Little blossom there's the shiniest soul
(Oh) Just behind those eyes
While I won't second guess
What you're thinking of me
I will miss you the way you miss the sea
Just (don't look down) Keep staring like you've never seen the stars
(Don't look down) If you need me to remind you who you are
(Don't look down) Little blossom there's the shiniest soul

A friend of mine grows his very own brambles
They twist all around him till he can't move
Beautiful, quivering, chivalrous shambles
What is my friend trying to prove?
The booze turns a tall, gentle boy to a terrible totem
And the kids gather 'round trying to see what's inside
I think when he's drinking he's drowning some riot
What is my friend trying to hide?
'Cause it's breaking my heart, it's breaking my heart
And it's breaking my heart to pour like the rain
Brother of mine don't run with those fuckers
When will my friend start singing again?
When will my friend start singing again?

I plant the kind of kiss that wouldn't wake a baby
On the self-same face that wouldn't let me sleep
And the street is singing with my feet
And dawn gives me a shadow I know to be taller
All down to you, dear
Everything has changed
My sorry name has made it to graffiti
I was looking for someone to complete me
Not anymore, dear
Everything has changed
And we made the moon our mirrorball
The streets, an empty stage
The city sirens violins
Everything has changed
So lift off love
Lift off love
We took the town to town last night
We kissed like we invented it
And now I know what every step is for
To lead me to your door
Know that while you sleep
Everything has changed
We made the moon our mirrorball
The streets, an empty stage
The city sirens violins
Everything has changed
Everything has changed
Everything has changed
So lift off love
Lift off love (down to you, dear)
Lift off love (down to you, dear)
Lift off love (down to you, dear)
Lift off love (down to you, dear)

Got to get out of TV
Just pick a point and go
The ticker tape tangles my feet
As I search for a face that I know
Come on, tower crane driver
There's not so far to go
I must have been working the ropes
When your hand slipped from mine
Now I live off the mirrors and smoke
It's a joke, a fix, a lie
Come on, tower crane driver
Oh so far to fall
Send up a prayer in my name
Just the same
They say I'm on top of my game
Gentle gentle love

Stuff was started, things had ends
Stuff regarding all my friends
Some were married all were fine
These are good friends these are mine
I got deep warm drunk
And I lost my words
And it does not hurt
And that moon is
Absurd

Mondays is for drinking to the seldom seen kid
I've been working on a cocktail called "Grounds For Divorce", whoa
Polishing a compass that I hold in my sleep, whoa
Doubt comes in on sticks, but then he kicks like a horse, whoa
There's a Chinese cigarette case and the rest you can keep
And the rest you can keep
And the rest you can keep
There's a hole in my neighbourhood
Down which of late I cannot help but fall
There's a hole in my neighbourhood
Down which of late I cannot help but fall
Mondays is for drinking to the seldom seen kid
(Ooh, ooh)
There's this whispering of jokers doing "Flesh by the Pound"
To a chorus of supposes from the little town whores
There'll be twisted karaoke at the Aniseed Lounge
And I'd bring you further roses but it does you no good
And it does me no good
And it does you no good
There's a hole in my neighborhood
Down which of late I cannot help but fall
There's a hole in my neighborhood
Down which of late I cannot help but fall
There's a hole in my neighborhood
Down which of late I cannot help but fall
Someday we'll be drinking with the seldom seen kid

Deadlines pass year on year,
Whisper grass, the falling tears,
Whisper grass, wish you were here.
Your tall tales still resound,
Your tall tales found you out,
Your tall tales won't lie down,
In case you're thinking of staying.
Buffalo ghosts, hurtle slow on blue
The journey makes me taller
The journey brings me you
Buffalo ghosts, hurtle slow on blue
The journey makes me taller
The journey brings me you.
Great big sky down to the ground.
Great big sky down to the ground.
Buffalo ghosts, hurtle slow on blue

I'm sick of working for a living
I'm just ticking off the days till I die
Oh, I miss you Louise, yeah
And the sickest little pleasures keep me going in between pulling teeth
Oh, periscope up
I've been looking for a ladder
I need to see the Commander In Chief, ooh
And remind him what was passed on to me, oh
Your mum don't sleep, oh
And the friends you keep
I didn't raise a thief
I didn't raise a thief
But the leaders of the free world
Are just little boys throwing stones
And it's easy to ignore
Till they're knocking on the door of your homes, yeah
My thinking isn't driven, oh
But the music always gives me a lift
I'm so easy to please, yeah
But I think we dropped the baton like the 60's didn't happen, oh no
Oh, periscope up
Should be looking for a ladder
I need to see the Commander In Chief, ooh
And remind him what was passed on to you and me, oh
Your mum don't sleep, oh
And the friends you keep
I didn't raise a thief
I didn't raise a thief
But the leaders of the free world
Are just little boys throwing stones
And it's easy to ignore
Till they're knocking on the door of your homes
But the leaders of the free world
Are just little boys throwing stones
And it's easy to ignore
Till they're knocking on the door of your homes
Passing the gun from father to feckless son
We're climbing a landslide where only the good die young
Passing the gun from father to feckless son
We're climbing a landslide where only the good die young
(Passing the gun from father to feckless son)
Oh, periscope up
I've been looking for a ladder
(We're climbing a landslide where only the good die young)
I need to see the Commander In Chief, ooh
And remind him what was passed on to me, oh

Before leaving get to the bar
No one round here makes you pay
Never very good at goodbyes
So gentle shoulder charge
Love you mate
Love you mate
Salford skyline gloom
Always you
Could fly round any corner
But until you do

So I'm there,
Charging around with a juggernaut brow
Overdraft speeches and deadlines to make
Cramming commitments like cats in a sack
Telephone burn and a purposeful gait
When out of a doorway the tentacles stretch
Of a song that I know and the world moves in slow-mo
Straight to my head like the first cigarette of the day
And it's you and it's May
And we're sleeping through the day
And I'm five years ago
And three thousand miles away
Do I have time? A man of my calibre?
Stood in the street like a sleepwalking teenager?
No. And I dealt with this years ago
I took a hammer to every memento
But image on image like beads on a rosary
Pull through my head as the music takes hold
And the sickener hits, I could work till I break
But I love the bones of you, that I will never escape
And it's you, and it's May
And we're sleeping through the day
And I'm five years ago
And three thousand miles away
And I can't move my arm
For the fear that you will wake
And I'm five years ago
And three thousand miles away
And I'm five years ago
And three thousand miles away
And I'm five years ago
And three thousand miles away
And it's you and its May
And we're sleeping through the day
And I'm five years ago
