di The Maccabees

Spearmint Rhino was taking our money when Gran was robbed of her own life honey.
The driver-less hornet last post on the trumpet.
His blind, crippled crumpet don't like it but lump it.
The engine won't start without him.
The engine won't start without.

So I went down to Sherry's mod suits and Paul Weller.
All pork pies and drainpipes to wear in all weather.
All of us shed a tear thinking of yesteryear.
Raise whiskey, raise beer, the old boy is not here.
The engine won't start without him.
The engine won't start without.

So he's left us done to the nines with satin for lining
And a coating of pine and the engine is broke I can't fix and I've lost all the coals and we're running quite low
And the engine is broke I can't fix and I've lost all the coals and we're running quite low.
Il tuo voto:
She's the flutter in my heart
The spring is in my step
My empty head
Sees the lump form in my throat
The view in my minds eye
My empty heart, heart, heart, heart, heart
My heart, heart, heart, heart

She's got her suspicions
(X-ray x-ray x-ray x-ray)
She's got x-ray vision
(X-ray x-ray x-ray x-ray)
She sees through me with her
X-ray, x-ray, x-ray, x-ray vision
X-ray, x-ray, x-ray, x-ray vision

See me shifting in my seat
Picks that in a heart beat
My empty head
Sees the tongue get to my cheek
My conscience bleak
My empty heart, heart, heart, heart, heart
My heart, heart, heart, heart

She's got her suspicions
(X-ray x-ray x-ray x-ray)
She's got x-ray vision
(X-ray x-ray x-ray x-ray)
She sees through me with her
X-ray, x-ray, x-ray, x-ray vision
X-ray, x-ray, x-ray, x-ray vision

And with this power
She can see
Through solid objects
Like you and me
Il tuo voto:
So it's stars and crosses
Reasoning for losses
You learn right from wrong
And then you write the book yourself
Right the wrongs you know,

But then you're all in your rows
All in your rows
All in your row-oh-ohs
All in your rows
All in your row-oh-ohs

Domination fading with war-torn tradition
Picking holes in holy
And in blinkered vision
You left us standing with no understanding
There's no give
There's no give

And then you're all in your rows
All in your rows
All in your row-oh-ohs
All in your rows
All in your row-oh-ohs

So cityscape and countryside
You've got local boys, they're going nationwide
So here's your church and here's your steeple
And you're locking your doors to keep in all the people

Let them go
Il tuo voto:
Swim, swim, swim, swim, swimming
Stay in your lanes
Swim, swim, swim, swim, swimming
Just stay in your lanes

No bombing and no heavy petting
So just stay in your lanes
Verruca socks and not forgetting to
Just stay in your lanes

Madames and monsieurs please return to your cubicles x 8

Latchmere’s got a wave machine

Oo oo oo oo oo oo
Oo oo oo oo oo x 4

Came out of the changing rooms
Absolutely nothing had changed
So I stayed in your lanes

Came out of the changing room
And absolutely sod all had changed
So I’ll stay in your lanes

Speedo, speed wise
Speedo, speed wise
Speedo, speed wise
So I stayed in your lanes

Bebop?

Stay in your…

Madames and monsieurs please return to your cubicles x 8

Latchmere’s got a wave machine

Oo oo oo oo oo oo
Oo oo oo oo oo x 2

Stay in your lanes
Stay
Just stay in your lanes
Stay
Just stay in your
La-ah-ah-ohh-ohh

Latchmere’s got a wave machine
Il tuo voto:
It's just what all young lovers do
It's just what all young lovers do

I noticed you
You stood out like a sore thumb
The most beautiful sore thumb I'd ever seen

I took you out
And I showed you a good time
Danced all night, and I waited 'til the time was right

You say
Never wrong, never right. Never wrong, never right
Echo, echo, my mind
I say
It's just what all young lovers do

Do you recall
The night that we first met?
And how I burnt your dress with my cigarette

I don't know why
But I'm playing this game, for you
I'm guessing it's just what all young lovers do

You say
Never wrong, never right. Never wrong, never right
Echo, echo, my mind
I say
It's just what all young lovers do

Yes they do

(Never wrong never right never wrong never right)

Yes they do

Echo her
Echo her
Echo her
Echo

It's just what all young lovers do (x4)
Il tuo voto:
Pound for pound and cheek to cheek
Cheek paler than a lamp light
Take me down to light the box
And play super Scalextric

And turn this
Darkness
Into light
And I'll turn too bright
Forget all the hype

I'll need heart and I'll need courage
We all need...

Toe to toe, there's nowhere to go
So I'm tiptoeing around it
I held you down and I held my own
And now I feel like I'm floating

So turn to this
Head on
And keep on
Keeping on

I'll need heart and you'll need courage
We all need time

So let's make time work for us
Let's make time work for us
Let's make time work for us
Let's make time work for us

Let's take our precious time about it
Let's take our precious time about it
Let's take our precious time about it
Let's take our precious time about it

Don't you know, nobody knows
If there's somebody waiting
So you'll hold yourself up and you'll hold yourself in
And then pray that you are growing

And turn to this
Darkness
You turn it into light, and you'll turn too bright
Forget all the hype

You'll need heart and I'll need courage
We all need time

So let's make time work for us
Let's make time work for us
Let's make time work for us
Let's make time work for us

Let's take our precious time about it
Let's take our precious time about it
Let's take our precious time about it
Let's take our precious time about it
Let's take our precious time about it
Let's take our precious time about it
Let's take our precious time about

'cause we'll need heart and we'll need courage
In these times
We'll need heart and we'll need courage
In these times

Because time can mean so much
Are you still mine?
Il tuo voto:
Never cry on your own, never cry
But when you cry
Just try and find some perfect stranger with the tissue shoulders on

'Cos I know the score and it's hard when it's her your crying for

Never go on your own, never go
But when you go
Just try to find someone or other with the GPS turned on

'Cos I've been here before and it's hard when it's her your crying for

So take her and lay her in the ground
I'll be here waiting so patiently not making a song

Don't want to lie alone

I'll find another with a shoestring loveheart thong
Il tuo voto:
First love, last love
Only love, it's only love

First love, last love
Only love, it's only love

Do you miss home?
Do you miss home?
And are you cool?
Symmetrical?

Oh Oh Oh
Let's get married
And tick the boxes
Oh lets get married
And tick the boxes

Do you wanna be alone?
Do you wanna be alone?
And are you cool?
Symmetrical,
Analytical
Hypocritical
So critical
Nothing's perfect,
I'm hoping I'll do

Oh nothing's perfect,
I'm hoping I'll do

My mistake
And no mistake
And I would take it back if I could
So stay with me tonight

I'll make my bed, I'll lie in it
Enticing with its leopard print
I'll make my bed, I'll lie in it
Enticing with its leopard print
And matching velvet duvet

First love, last love
Only love, it's only love

First love, last love
Only love, it's only love
It's only love

First love, last love
Only love, it's only love
It's only love

First love, last love
Only love, it's only love
It's only love
Il tuo voto:
I was in the other room
when hansome was getting leather and laces
couldnt save a family
cause heroes wear masks
and lycra
mary get out
cause your freezing
brother get in
get your head kicked in

down down down down
hold yourself down
and you scraped your knee
up up up up
pick yourself up
you get a plaster on your cut
cause its sewn up
sewn up

so youve got yourself in a hole
and you cant get out
i wont be there
i cant be around
to hold you down
and let you know
that the places we cant go
i wont let you fall, i wont hold you back
cause im falling away
im paying the maximum im willing to pay
im willing to pay the price that you pay
and the reason i cant stay
is cause you live so far away

oh mary get out
cause your freezing
and in the end
brother get in
brother get in
brother get in
brother get in
Il tuo voto:
Mum said no to Disneyland
And Dad loves the church
Halluhjah, Oh, Oh

And the boys chew lego
So now we cant build castles or robots
Cause the pieces don't fit together

So look left and look right, cross the road but hold my hand
Look left and look right, cross the road just hold my hand
And we'll hold on, and we'll hold on

Only one, where once stood four
And closest to the kitchen floor
Family favourite

Today we learn't
That screaming are we there yet
Doesn't get you there any faster

So look left and look right, cross the road but hold my hand
Look left and look right, cross the road just hold my hand
And we'll hold on, and we'll hold on

Cross the roads and say goodbye
Cross the roads there wasn't a dry eye
You cross the road and say goodbye
There wasnt a dry eye, cross the road wasn't
A dry eye, there wasn't a dry eye!
Il tuo voto:
Cradle me
I'll cradle you
I'll win your heart
with a woop-a-woo
pulling shapes just for your eyes
so with toothpaste kisses and lines
I'll be yours and you'll be

Lay with me, I'll lay with you
we'll do the things that lovers do
put the stars in our eyes
and with heart shaped bruises
and late night kisses
devine
