Dusk Till Dawn
02:55
|
|||
I’ve got a handful of nothing a headful of dreams
A thousand situations not quite what they seem
My passion is high my patience has gone
It’s the same old story from dusk till dawn
Running on faith living on hope
A tug of war at both ends of the rope
God takes care of the drunks and the fools
In this lifetime I have being both
And the Devil makes work for idle hands to do
Got a hole in my pocket a hole in my shoe
My wishes cast away trying to hold on
It’s a never ending story from dusk till dawn
I can’t stop moving I won’t stand still
A million conversations too much time to kill
The furure is bright the past is done
They tell me don’t lokk back in to the sun
Running on faith living on hope
Burning the candle smoking the dope
God takes care of the drunks and the fools
If you follow the signs and abide by the rules
And the Devil makes work for idle hands to do
Got a hole in my pocket a hole in my shoe
My wishes cast away trying to hold on
It’s a never ending story from dusk till dawn
Running on hope living on faith
All good things come to those who wait
God takes care of the drunks and the fools
In this lifetime I have being both

There’s many folk who’d love to know
There’s some who’d maybe even give it a go
The rumours may be overblown
But the truth will never be known
About The Town Street Special
The Town Street Special
When you’ve got the urge, you’ve got the horn
You’re on the edge lust overdrawn
You want something off menu
There’s only one thing you can do
Town Street Special
Town Street Special
The perpetrator will take it to his grave
Nobody knows how deranged
He plays his cards close to his chest
No information is suppressed
Town Street Special
Town Street Special
On a weekend away in Amsterdam
Window shopping
For a Madame
There’s 3 from which to choose
A brisk response comes from each room
Town Street Special
I won’t do that
I won’t do that
I won’t do that
I won’t do that
There’s a bloke in The Brudenall Social Club
He’s in each day drinking smooth
He won’t rest until he knows the truth
He aint had a shag since 2002
Town Street Special

Look at me I’ll look at you
A lot to say that much is true
Contemplate the lows and highs
A lifetimes passed before your eyes
Look at me I’ll look at you
A lot to say that much is true
Contemplate the lows and highs
A lifetimes passed before your eyes
But I can’t find reason why
Why you should be the jealous type
A reason why will still remain
I shake my head and rack my brain
Rack my brain
And I can’t find a reason for it
I just can’t put my finger on it
Suppose you had to be there
Sometimes it’s just like Jackanory
When you don’t.t know the full story
Of that you need to be aware
And there’s no need to pick a side
Or to conquer and divide
It’s true that we all make mistakes
That contribute to heartache
But I still I can’t find reason why
Why you should be the jealous type
A reason why will still remain
I shake my head and rack my brain
Rack my brain
And I can’t find a reason for it
I just can’t put my finger on it
Suppose you had to be there
Sometimes it’s just like Jackanory
When you don’t know the full story
Of that you need to be aware
And I can’t find a reason for it
I just can’t put my finger on it
Suppose you had to be there
Sometimes it’s just like Jackanory
When you don’t.t know the full story
Of that you need to be aware

Pet Shop

It was a long time ago
Hanging out with Chris Lowe
But Steve he didn’t know
That he could act so low
Pet shop, you did it yourself
Pet shop, you did it yourself
Pet shop, you did it yourself
Pet shop, you did it yourself
Little boys and trains
Always playing games
But it’s such a shame
When someone takes the blame
Pet shop, you did it yourself
Pet shop, you did it yourself
Pet shop, you did it yourself
Pet shop, you did it yourself
You do the right thing
You do the right thing
You do the right thing
You do the right thing
Pet shop, you did it yourself
Pet shop, you did it yourself
Pet shop, you did it yourself
Pet shop, you did it yourself
In the Pet shop, you did it yourself
Pet shop, you did it yourself
Pet shop, you did it yourself
Pet shop, you did it yourself

I'm A Terrible Liar
05:52
|
|||
On a Thursday Evening in September 2012
I met someone I wish I never has
I had to make the toughest decision
I’ve ever had to make in my entire life
For I’m a terrible liar
And I’d make a terrible cheat
But you set my world on fire
And you could fall at my feet
On the 28th of September 2012
I made the decision I’d quickly live to regret
After 13 years, 9 months and 28 days
I walked away from the best thing in my life
And I’m a terrible liar
And I’d make a terrible cheat
But you set my world on fire
And you could fall at my feet
And I’m a terrible liar
And I’d make a terrible cheat
But you set my world on fire
And you could fall at my feet
And do you still have that bottle of Lambs Navy Rum
You had in the cupboard of your Kitchen
And do you still have the Hopton glass
I used to drink it from
When I came round on a Friday night
And It’s amazing how the stupidest little thing
Trigger a memory of something that happened years ago
For I’m a terrible liar
And I’d make a terrible cheat
But you set my world on fire
And you could fall at my feet
And I’m a terrible liar
And I’d make a terrible cheat
But you set my world on fire
And you could fall at my feet

Tied Down
03:01

Can’t get no strings for my guitar
Can’t get no sole for my shoes
Can’t get no lyrics for my song
And I can’t get no love from you
Although I’ve tried that much is true
Can’t get this things off my mind
I’ve lost the shirt for my back
I’ve lost the keys to my flat
I know that I’ll be lonesome soon
And I can’t pay my own bills
Can’t even buy the headache pills
Can’t get these things off my mind
I’m tied down trouble knows me by name
I’m tied down seems there’s no other way
I’m tied down is this how it’s going to be
I’m tied down need to be set free
My bank account is in the red
Can’t stop the noose tightening round my neck
Can’t keep the Shylock from my door
And I aint got no guarantees of the hours that I’ll do this week
Can’t get these things off my mind
I’m tied down trouble knows me by name
I’m tied down seems there’s no other way
I’m tied down is this how it’s going to be
I’m tied down need to be set free
The beer tokens have been spent
I’m brasic and can’t pay the rent
Can’t get these things off my mind
As the situation spirals out of control
Can’t dig my way out of this hole
Can’t get out of this hole
I’m tied down trouble knows me by name
I’m tied down seems there’s no other way
I’m tied down is this how it’s going to be
I’m tied down need to be set free
I’m tied down trouble knows me by name
I’m tied down seems there’s no other way
I’m tied down is this how it’s going to be
I’m tied down need to be set free, need to be free

The Duchess

It stood at 71 vicar lane
Sofa slept on by Kurt Cobain
It’s gone now it’s such a shame
No other venue is quite the same
John Keenan at the door with his red till
Pint of directors and Bikini Kill
It was only a few quid in
A bit more if American
There was always great bands on the bill
Amps stacked up on crates of Holsten Pils
Flat nose John was on the desk
Oh this place was just the best
The Duchess of York
If Hugo Boss shop walls could talk
A blue plaque should adorn
The Duchess of York
The stage was graced by Radiohead
Half Man Half Biscuit and The Inept
Bands came from far and wide
Muse and Oasis played there twice
The Duchess of York
If Hugo Boss shop walls could talk
A blue plaque should adorn
The Duchess of York
In March 2000 it closed its doors
And live music was no more
Taken over by a fashion brand
Why it closed I’ll never understand
The Duchess of York
If Hugo Boss shop walls could talk
A blue plaque should adorn
The Duchess of York
The Duchess of York
If Hugo Boss shop walls could talk
A blue plaque should adorn
The Duchess of York

I once met a girl with long flaxen hair
If I could turn back time I’d tell her how much I care
When we were younger living the dream
On a carousel of emotions there was no in between
Being young and foolish I let her slip away
With a kind twist of fate maybe we’ll meet up one day
The girl with the flaxen hair
The girl with the flaxen hair
The girl with the flaxen hair
The girl with the flaxen hair
After chasing the shadows of fortune and fame
I heard she got married and changed her last name
They moved to a place way over the sea
I wonder if she ever spared a thought for me
Maybe tomorrow as the tides of time turn
She will come back to me for her my heart yearns
The girl with the flaxen hair
The girl with the flaxen hair
The girl with the flaxen hair
The girl with the flaxen hair
As the rain falls hard I hope shes safe and warn
Me I put on a brave face to try to battle the storm
A special connection she knew how to blow my mind
Full of beauty and wonder she’s one of a kind
I think to myself what’s she doing where’s she now
What I wouldn’t give to talk to her somehow
The girl with the flaxen hair
The girl with the flaxen hair
The girl with the flaxen hair
The girl with the flaxen hair
So let’s raise a glass to the girl with the flaxen hair
You gave a me a pair of wings you got me walking, walking on air

Well it only takes one look
And your heart melts and your whole world has being shook
And there’s nothing you can do
As something’s got a hold on you
Well you never stood a chance
After just one fleeting glance
And there’s nothing you can do
As something’s got a hold on you
And it’s like an itch that you just can’t scratch
Way out of reach in the middle of your back
A desire for something, something you can’t have
And we all share the same stars
And healing wounds always leave scars
Tis better to have loved and lost than not loved at all
Not loved at all
Should have looked the other way
But now it’s much too late
And there’s nothing you can do
As something’s got a hold on you
And it’s like an itch that you just can’t scratch
Way out of reach in the middle of your back
A desire for something, something you can’t have
And we all share the same stars
And healing wounds always leave scars
Tis better to have loved and lost than not loved at all
Not loved at all
Not loved at all
Not loved at all
Not loved at all
And it’s like an itch that you just can’t scratch
Way out of reach in the middle of your back
A desire for something, something you can’t have
And we all share the same stars
But healing wounds always leave scars
Tis better to have loved and lost than not loved at all
Not loved at all
