You Probably Couldn't See For The Lights But You Were Staring Right At Me One look sends it coursing through the veins, oh how the feeling races Back up to their brains to form expressions on their stupid faces They don't want to say hello, but I can't want to say hello My heartbeat's at its peak, when you're coming up to speak Well I'm so tense and never tenser Well I'll go a bit Frank Spencer And I'm talking gibberish Tip of the tongue but I can't deliver it... Properly Oh, it's all getting on top of me And if it weren't this dark

You'd see how red my face has gone, yeah Everybody's trying to crack the jokes and that to make you smile Those that claim that they're not showing off are drowning in denial But they're not half as bad as me, say anything and I'll agree Cause when it comes to acting up, I'm sure I could write a book And now that you're more than a part in the play It's slightly easier to think what to say You had us all standing on our heads Doing our best tricks, yeah Never again Never again Will there be another one quite as desirable as you? One look sends it coursing through the veins, oh how the feeling races Back up to their brains to form expressions on their stupid faces Still Take You Home It's ever so funny, I don't think you're special I don't think you're cool You're just probably alert, but under these lights you look beautiful But I'm struggling, I can't see through your fake tan And you know it for a fact that everybody's eating out of your hands What do you know? Oh you know nothing! But I'll still take you home Yeah, I'll still take you home What do you know? Oh you don't know nothing! Fancy seeing you in here, you're all tarted up and you don't look the same I haven't seen you since last year and surprisingly you have forgot my name But you know it and you knew it all along Oh you say you have forgotten, but you're fibbing go on tell me I'm wrong What do you know?

I fancy you with a passion, you're a Topshop princess, a rockstar too You're a fad you're a fashion and I'm having a job trying to talk to you But it's alright, put it all on one-side, everybody's looking, you've got control of everyone's eyes Including mine Riot Van Up rolled the riot van And sparked excitement in the boys But the policemen look annoyed Perhaps these are ones they should avoid They got a chase last night from men with truncheon's dressed in hats They didn't do that much wrong, still ran away though for the laugh "Please just stop talking Because they won't find us if you do Oh those silly boys in blue Well they won't catch me and you" "Have you been drinking son, you don't look old enough to me" "I'm sorry officer is there a certain age you're supposed to be?... nobody told me" Up rolled the riot van And these lads just wind the coppers up Ask why they don't catch proper crooks Get their address and their name's took But they couldn't care less He got thrown in the riot van And all the coppers kicked him in And there was no way he could win Just had to take it on the chin Red Light Indicates Doors Are Secured Ask if we can have six in If not we'll have to have two You're coming up our end aren't you I'll get one with you He wouldn't let us have six in Especially not with the food He could have just told us no though He didn't have to be rude See her with the green dress I talked to her at the bar How come it's already two pound fifty?

We've only gone about a yard Couldn't you see she were gorgeous She were beyond belief There was this lad at her side drinking his Smirnoff Ice Can I buy you a tropical reef? Sitting going backwards And I didn't want to leave I said it's High Green mate Via Hillsborough please Well how funny were that sketch earlier Up at that taxi rank Oh no you woulda missed it, It were when you went to the bank These lads went round proper shouting About who was next in the queue The kind of thing that would seem so funny But not when they've both had a few Well calm down, temper, temper You shouldn't get so annoyed You're acting like a silly little boy And they wanted to be men And do some fighting in the street (They said) no surrender No chance of retreat Sitting going backwards And I didn't want to leave I said it's High Green mate Via Hillsborough please Drunken plots hatched to jump it, ask around are ya sure? Went for it but the red light was showing And the red light indicates doors are secured Mardy Bum Now then Mardy Bum I see your frown And it's like looking down the barrel of a gun And it goes off And out come all these words Oh there's a very pleasant side to you A side I much prefer It's one that laughs and jokes around Remember cuddles in the kitchen Yeah, to get things off the ground And it was up, up and away Oh, but it's right hard to remember That on a day like today when you're all argumentative And you've got the face on Well now then Mardy Bum Oh I'm in trouble again, aren't I I thought as much Cause you turned over there

Pulling that silent disappointment face The one that I can't bear Can't we laugh and joke around Remember cuddles in the kitchen Yeah, to get things off the ground And it was up, up and away Oh, but it's right hard to remember That on a day like today when you're all argumentative And you've got the face on Yeah I'm sorry I was late Well I missed the train And then the traffic was a state And I can't be arsed to carry on in this debate That reoccurs ,oh when you say I don't care Well of course I do, yeah I clearly do! So laugh and joke around Remember cuddles in the kitchen Yeah, to get things off the ground And it was up, up and away Still it's right hard to remember That on a day like today when you're all argumentative And you've got the face on Perhaps Vampires Is A Bit Strong But... Well I've seen your eyes as they flicked on me What is he doing? What on earth's the plan? Has he got one? You'd better give me some pointers Since you are the big rocket launcher and I'm just the shotgun Well I ain't got no dollar signs in my eyes That might be a surprise but it's true That I'm not like you and I don't want your advice Or your praise or to move in the ways you do Cause all you people are vampires And all your stories are stale And though you pretend to you'll stand by us I know you're sure that we'll fail Well I've seen your eyes as they flicked on me What a confusion Your snarl is just so condescending Try to explain that we're onto a win If you feel we get in Near recoups what we're spending He says, I can't believe that you drove all that way Well how much did they pay ya? How much did they pay ya? You'd've been better to stay round our way Thinking 'bout things but not actually doing a thing Cause all you people are vampires! When The Sun Goes Down So who's that girl there?

I wonder what went wrong So that she had to roam the streets She don't do major credit cards I doubt she does receipts It's all not quite legitimate And what a scummy man Just give him half a chance I bet he'll rob you if he can Can see it in his eyes, yeah That he's got a driving ban Amongst some other offences And I've seen him with girls of the night And he told Roxanne to put on her red light They're all infected but he'll be alright Cause he's a scumbag, don't you know I said he's a scumbag, don't you know! Although you're trying not to listen I bet your eyes are staring at the ground She makes a subtle proposition Sorry love I'll have to turn you down And oh he must be up to something Want half a chance to show he's more than likely I've got a feeling in my stomach I start to wonder what his story might be What his story might be They said it changes when the sun goes down And they said it changes when the sun goes down And they said it changes when the sun goes down Around here Around And look here comes a Ford Mondeo Isn't he Mister Inconspicuous And he don't have to say 'owt She understands she's here to get picked up And she's delighted when she sees him Pulling in and giving her the eye Because she must be fucking freezing Scantily clad beneath the clear night sky She don't stop in the winter, no and... They said it changes when the sun goes down And they said it changes when the sun goes down And they said it changes when the sun goes down Around here They said it changes when the sun goes down And they said it changes when the sun goes down And they said it changes when the sun goes down Around here Around here What a scummy man Just give him half a chance

I bet he'll rob you if he can Can see it in his eyes that he's got a nasty plan I hope you're not involved at all From Ritz To The Rubble Last night these two bouncers And one of em's alright The other one's the scary one His way or no way, totalatarian He's got no time for you Looking or breathing How he don't want you to So step out the queue He makes examples of you And there's nowt you can say Behind they go through to the bit where you pay And you realise then that it's finally the time To walk back past ten thousand eyes in the line And you can swap jumpers and make another move Instilled in your brain you've got something to prove To all the smirking faces and the boys in black Why can't they be pleasant? Why can't they have a laugh? He's got his hand in your chest He wants to give you a duff Well secrectly I think they want it all to kick off They want, arms flying everywhere and Bottles aswell it's just Something to talk about A story to tell you Well I'm so glad they turned us all away we'll put it down to fate I thought a thousand million things that I could never say this morning Got too deep, but how deep is too deep? This town's a different town today This town's a different town to what it was last night You couldn't have done that on a Sunday That girl's a different girl today Said that girl's a different girl to her you kissed last night You couldn't have done that on a Sunday Well I'm so glad they turned us all away we'll put it down to fate I thought a thousand million things that I could never think this morning Got too deep, but how deep is too deep?

Last night what we talked about It made so much sense But now the haze has ascended It don't make no sense anymore A Certain Romance Well oh they might wear classic Reeboks Or knackered Converse Or tracky bottoms tucked in socks But all of that's what the point is not The point's that there ain't no romance around there And there's the truth that they can't see They'd probably like to throw a punch at me And if you could only see them, then you would agree Agree that there ain't no romance around there You know, oh it's a funny thing you know We'll tell 'em if you like We'll tell 'em all tonight They'll never listen Cause their minds are made up And course it's all okay to carry on that way And over there there's broken bones There's only music, so that there's new ringtones And it don't take no Sherlock Holmes To see it's a little different around here Don't get me wrong, oh there's boys in bands And kids who like to scrap with pool cues in their hands And just cause he's had a coupla cans He thinks it's alright to act like a dickhead Don't you know, oh it's a funny thing you know We'll tell em if you like We'll tell em all tonight They'll never listen Cause their minds are made up And course it's all okay to carry on that way I said no Oh no! Oh you won't get me to go! Anywhere, said anywhere I won't go Oh no no! Well over there there's friends of mine What can I say, I've known 'em for a long long time And yeah they might overstep the line But I just cannot get angry in the same way Not in the same way Not in the same way Oh no, oh no no Torna Indietro
