Gravel /ˈɡrævəl/ is composed of unconsolidated rock fragments that have a general particle size range and include size classes from granule- to boulder-sized fragments. Gravel is sub-categorized by the Udden-Wentworth scale into granular gravel (>2 to 4 mm or 0.079 to 0.16 in) and pebble gravel (>4 to 64 mm or 0.2 to 2.5 in). One cubic yard of <gravel typically weighs about 3000 pounds (or a cubic metre is about 1,800 kilograms).
Gravel is an important commercial product, with a number of applications. Many roadways are surfaced with gravel, especially in rural areas where there is little traffic. Globally, far more roads are surfaced with gravel than with concrete or tarmac; Russia alone has over 400,000 km (250,000 mi) of gravel-surfaced roads.[citation needed] Both sand and small gravel are also important for the manufacture of concrete.
Large gravel deposits are a common geological feature, being formed as a result of the weathering and erosion of rocks. The action of rivers and waves tends to pile up gravel in large accumulations. This can sometimes result in gravel becoming compacted and concreted into the sedimentary rock called conglomerate. Where natural gravel deposits are insufficient for human purposes, gravel is often produced by quarrying and crushing hard-wearing rocks, such as sandstone, limestone, or basalt. Quarries where gravel is extracted are known as gravel pits. Southern England possesses particularly large concentrations of them due to the widespread deposition of gravel in the region during the Ice Ages.

Teach me to fly, I know you know how to take off
I've got to find myself another place to hide
I never lied, I just didn't believe the truth I told you
I know you say it's nothing, but I've just realized
We made love on the ice, it's such a surprise, but it's
boring
I couldn't get warm enough so I could melt with you
We play with the words that don't seem to hurt
They usually work, but don't seem to work for all
How many times I tried to deny I love you
It's not a big deal, cause you feel the same way too
I never lied, but I didn't believe the truth I told you
Now throw your wedding dress away, because we won't get
through
We made love on the ice, it's such a surprise, but it's
boring
I couldn't get warm enough so I could melt with you
We play with the words that don't seem to hurt
They usually work, but don't seem to work for all
You say you never felt this way
You would be glad if you could only
Have another chance today
To find new ways how to control me
Well thank you for the time we've spent
You just have helped me understand that
I don't need you here to stay
And there ain't no stick my back can't handle
Round and round we go
But our roads went separated
Round and round I'll burn
Your face in the morning paper
Round and round we go
But our roads went separated
Round and round, we go!
You say you never felt this way
You would be glad if you could only
Have another chance today
To find new ways how to control me
Well thank you for the time we've spent
You just have helped me understand that
I don't need you here to stay
And there ain't no stick my back can't handle
Round and round we go
But our roads went separated
Round and round I'll burn
Your face in the morning paper
Round and round we go
But our roads went separated
Round and round, we go!
When on Easter morning you moved out, guess what I found
out
I will never fall in love with you again to make me proud
Of little things that you and I have planned but never
shown
To magazines and papers of tomorrow's rock'n'roll
Are you afraid at all?
If there's anything you'd like to say
Well shout it all out loud
I'm all ears for all your fears and tears
Cos they just make me proud of all the things
That I have planned and have a chance to show
To magazines and websites of tomorrow's rock and roll
Wrote down what I was told when you were running out
you said we're strong enough
we're bulletproof but love's not a thing you control
it's not sustainable we're all available to anyone
why did you have to go on such a beautiful morning
your foreign policy
mean nothing now
why did you have to go on such a beautiful morning
your foreign policy will drag us down
well I love free market but I hate labour mobility
cos all my abilities are not enough
to sell anything that sells where you were running to
well you're not bulletproof and I'm like you
so why did you have to go on such a beautiful morning
your foreign policy mean nothing now
why did you have to go on such a beautiful morning
your foreign policy will drag us down
why did you have to go on such a beautiful morning
your foreign policy will kill us all
why did you have to go on such a beautiful morning
my foreign policy is to bring you home
I'll burn your house on Sunday morning
It's Sunday 8am, your home is burning
I'll burn your house on Sunday morning
Your house has burnt, but I'm not learning any of your
lessons
Can I have another blessing from the priest who lives
next door?
That's what I pay him for
He said I would live forever, if only I could get to
heaven
Could you hold my hand?
I lost all of my friends
Now I'm so lonely
You were my one and only
Time goes by feelings unravel
Words they make come out like gravel
We're on that road again that makes me feel queasy
Makes me uneasy
Your hair looks nice when I think about it
When I tell you so, you as me to stop it
We're on that road again that makes me feel queasy
There's bound to me more ahead
So please take it easy
Take it easy
Reading all the signs in my mind as they pass us by
Helps me not to think
Thinking about how I'm only thinking of
What not to think
Makes me think of you
Time goes by feelings unravel
Words they make come out like gravel
We're on that road again that makes me uneasy
There's bound to be more ahead
So please take it easy
Parents never lie
we were so naive and they were right
remember I always thought I'd be there when you cry
it was a time when we had so much more and common
stay here for a while and you will see that after summer
I will crawl then I will fall back in your arms
I'll sell my soul there ain't no other way to help you
out
and I will crawl then I will fall back in your arms I'll
sell my soul there ain't no other way to work it out
parents never lie
we were so naive and they were right
remember I always thought I'd be there when you cry
though we don't share anything we had in common
don't go anywhere and you will see that after summer
I will crawl then I will fall back in your arms
I'll sell my soul there ain't no other way to help you
out
and I will crawl then I will fall back in your arms I'll
sell my soul there ain't no other way to work it out
You're the only reason I'm still breathing and I'm so
alive
I want to wake up every morning, I don't think I need
another drive
I need a time to scream, a time to waste, I found new
ways to walk away with grace and I'm just as good as when
we all last met
Are we having fun?
I'm making honest living, found a wife and started
praying God
I know you think it takes a lot, but I still feel I have
enough of blood
I need a time to scream, a time to waste, I found new
ways to walk away with grave and I'm just as good as when
we all first met
Are we having fun?
Take me back to where we laid chained on summer sand
I'll whisper words I used to say. I didn't know what they
meant
Take me back to where we sat chained on summer bench
I'll whisper words I never said
I didn't know what they meant
When we all have settled down, I'm too weak to make a
sound
I'll feel tired to compete. I'm so weak but yet complete
Well down the road lives girl named Lucy
she had a husband but they had to split

fresh Lithuanian with perfect clits

but we have found with what we could begin
cos no-one can keep them dry on a Saturday night
nothing can keep them dry tonight
she's selling loads to a German village
they're sweek fifteens but there ain't no kids
they've all got booties and a cleavage between
their cherries and their perfect tits
her sister model is an escort
top of the phone list of Amsterdam
we've never had a lot to export
but we have found with what we could begin
cos no-one can keep them dry on a Saturday night
no-one can keep them dry tonight
i heard the sound of your bike,
as your wheels hit the gravel,
then your engine in the driveway
cutting off
and i pushed through the screen door
and i stood out on the porch
thinking figh, fight, fight
at all costs,
but instead i let you in,
just like i've always done
and i sat you down and offered you a beer
and across the kitchen table
i fired several rounds,
but you were still sitting here
when the smoke cleared.
and you came crawling back
to say that you wanna
make good in the end
and oh, oh,
let me count the ways
that i abhore you,
and you were never a good lay
and you were never a good friend
but, oh, oh, what else can i say...
i adore you
all i need is my leather,
one t-shirt and two socks,
i'll keep my hands warm
in your pockets
and we can use the engine block,
and we'll ride out to california
with my arms around your chest,
and i'll pretend that this is real
'cuz this is what i like best,
and you've been juggling two women
like a stupid circus clown
telling us both we are the one
and maybe you can keep me from ever being happy,
but you're not gonna stop me from having fun.
so let's go before i change my mind
i'll leave the luggage of all your lives behind
'cuz i am bigger than everything that came before
and you were never very kind,
and you let me way down every time
but oh, oh, oh what can i say...
i adore you
i heard the sound of your bike,
as your wheels hit the gravel,
then your engine in the driveway
Well congrats, I see you've learned to dance
You're so drunk I'm ready for romance
Do you feel it's getting too intense
And your breasts seem bigger than before
And your eyes are asking for much more
Than a man could possibly ignore
For the first time and the last time I am Yours
Tell me how am I supposed to make it work
Just keep asking me to pull your hair
I'll breathe you, I think I need no air
Is there anything you would not dare
And your legs seem longer than before
And your lungs are screaming for much more than a man
could possibly explore
For the first time and the last time I am Yours
Tell me how am I supposed to make it work
Take me down to your where river flows
I'll tell you things nobody else should know
and when the sun goes down I'm gonna wake up
and when the sky turns black I'm gonna take off
and when my eyes go blind I'm gonna follow
Take me down to your where river flows
I'll show you things nobody else could show
and when the sun goes down I'm gonna wake up
and when the sky turns black I'm gonna take off
and when my eyes go blind I'm gonna follow you
They revere only empty words
I denounce this twisted world
Our seeking of more has blinded us
I cast myself out!
A growing hatred towards this sick world
Where wealth defines a man's worth
The weakling rats ruin everything
Then burn their own homes for a smoke screen
Sarcastic, hey I am a cynic
No other way to speak these days
Rid myself of this so called reality
I cast myself out!
Here in the vortex of echoes I find myself lost
No confession to atone for my rebellion
Here in the vortex of forsaken souls I let myself go
I cast myself out so no other can
Rabid dogs were once put down
Now the madmen run the asylum
Your polluted life sickens me
I cast myself out!
Bless you for showing me the door
So I know where we step outside
The gloves come off and we meet at last
Eye to eye, like man and beast always have
Here in the vortex of echoes I find myself lost
No confession to atone for my rebellion
Here in the vortex of forsaken souls I let myself go
I cast myself out so no other can
Breathing in your poisoned kingdom is like choking on
gravel
I want to tear off my skin and run into the rain
Here in the vortex of echoes I find myself lost
No confession to atone for my rebellion
Here in the vortex of forsaken souls I let myself go
I cast myself out so no other can
No confession to atone for my rebellion
Teach me, mother, how to build a house of love and trust
on sex appeal
Let's gather all the clouds - I'll make them disappear
I'm selling cheapest sort of rock and roll to desperate
boys and even lousier girls
I'm living honest life
I'll make you shout it out so clear. But then you say I
must be something before I'm thirty
Well I've never been too scared I'm gonna die too early
I will never need you to hold my hand
You say I must be something before I'm thirty
Well I've never been too scared I'm gonna die too early
You love me like a son, but I don't think that you can
understand
She's got a thing that's hard to hide
shiny shoes that make you blind they keep up all her
pride
she's got things that make you smile
shortest lines can get her high to keep you satisfied day
and night
who's that missus on your side your mother's asking all
the time
is this the one that feeds her juice to you
who's that missus on your side your mother's asking all
the time
is this the one you feed your bollocks to
she's got things that make you smile
shortest lines can get her high to keep you satisfied she
might be a perfect bride
with no thought in her blue eyes lying by your side day
and night
who's that missus on your side your mother's asking all
the time
is this the one that feeds her juice to you who's that
missus on your side your mother's asking all the time is
this the one you feed your bottox to
I'm not coming home
I won't sleep alone
Love me till I fall at the break of dawn
Have a cup of tea
Let's have two or three
As far as I can see there's only you and me
You were fine I'll see you then
I have slept with all your friends
My beauty will never change
I moved in promised I would follow you
you came in you had nothing else to do
we don't talk we like to save our tongues
we are locked everyone else is gone
why not get a little wild
why not produce a child with beautiful eyes
without a single lie
without a single line for the sake of life
I moved in promised I would wait for you
come on in there's no-one else but me and you
we've got time nothing's gonna change
this is life we're forever chained
why not get a little wild
why not produce a child with beautiful eyes
without a single lie
without a single line for the sake of life
So you've wasted all this time catching luck that keeps
just passing by
You can see it in my eyes, I will stand by you as long as
you don't mind
When there's nothing left to prove, you'll calm down,
you'll know the truth
When there's no-one left to kill, you'll calm down, you
won't need a pill
Now show me love that I've never heard of
or make me beg and get me on my knees
and I will die for you or let you murder
my soul to make you just a bit more pleased

and make me beg and get me on my knees
and I will die for you and let you murder my soul to make
me just a bit more pleased
and if you do could you go and do these things to me and
I will rush cos I want to crash and never see
just what you do when you go and do these things to me I
want to rush cos I want to crash and never see
