    letra de The View from the Afternoon

    Anticipation has the habit to set you up
    For disappointment in evening entertainment but
    Tonight there'll be some love
    Tonight there'll be a rukus yeah
    Regardless of what's gone before

    I want to see all of the things that we've already seen
    Lairy girls hung out the window of the limousine
    And of course its fancy dress
    And they're all looking quite full on in bunny ears and devil horns in hell

    Anticipation has the habit to set you up
    For disappointment in evening entertainment but
    Tonight there'll be some love
    Tonight there'll be a rukus yeah
    Regardless of what's gone before

    I want to see all of the things that we've already seen
    I want to see you take the jackpot out the fruit machine
    And put it all back in
    You've got to understand it you can never beat the bandit no

    And she won't be surprised and she won't be shocked
    When she's pressed the star after she's pressed unlock
    And there's verse and chapter sat in her inbox
    And all that it says is that you've drank a lot

    You should bear that in mind tonight, bear that in mind
    You should bear that in mind tonight, bear that in mind
    You can pour your heart out but her reasoning will block
    Oh! You send her after nine o'clock

    Anticipation has the habit to set you up
    For disappointment in evening entertainment but
    Tonight there'll be some love
    Tonight there'll be a rawkus yeah
    Regardless of what's gone before

    And she won't be surprised and she won't be shocked
    When she's pressed the star after she's pressed unlock
    And there's verse and chapter sat in her inbox
    And all that it says is that you've drank a lot

    You should bear that in mind tonight, bear that in mind
    You should bear that in mind tonight, bear that in mind
    You can pour your heart out around three o'clock
    When the 2 for 1's undone the writers block

    [X]

    letra de I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor

    Stop making the eyes at me
    I'll stop making the eyes at you
    What it is that surprises me
    Is that I don't really want you to

    And your shoulders are frozen (cold as the night)
    Oh, but you're an explosion (you're dynamite)
    Your name isn't Rio, but I don't care for sand
    Lighting the fuse might result in a bang, b-b-bang, go

    I bet that you look good on the dancefloor
    I don't know if your looking for romance or
    I don't know what you're looking for
    I said I bet that you look good on the dancefloor
    Dancing to electro-pop like a robot from 1984
    Well, from 1984

    I wish you'd stop ignoring me
    Because you're sending me to despair
    Without a sound, yeah, you're calling me
    And I don't think it's very fair

    That your shoulders are frozen (cold as the night)
    Oh, but you're an explosion (you're dynamite)
    Your name isn't Rio, but I don't care for sand
    Lighting the fuse might result in a bang, b-b-bang, go

    I bet that you look good on the dancefloor
    I don't know if your looking for romance or
    I don't know what you're looking for
    I said I bet that you look good on the dancefloor
    Dancing to electro-pop like a robot from 1984
    Well, from 1984

    And there ain't no love, no
    Montague's or Capulets
    Just banging tunes in DJ sets and
    Dirty dancefloors
    And dreams of naughtiness

    Well, I bet that you look good on the dancefloor
    I don't know if your looking for romance or
    I don't know what you're looking for
    I said I bet that you look good on the dancefloor
    Dancing to electro-pop like a robot from 1984
    Said from 1984

  3. Fake Tales of San FranciscoVer letra 2:56

    [X]

    letra de Fake Tales of San Francisco

    Fake tales of San Francisco
    Echo through the room
    More point to a wedding disco
    Without a bride or groom

    There's a super cool band, yeah
    With their trilbies and their glasses of white wine
    And all the weekend rockstars in the toilets
    Practicing their lines

    I don't want to hear you
    (Kick me out, kick me out)
    I don't want to hear, you know
    (Kick me out, kick me out)
    I don't want to hear you
    (Kick me out, kick me out)
    I don't want to hear you
    I don't want to hear your

    Fake tales of San Fransisco
    Echo through the air
    And there's a few bored faces in the back
    All wishing they weren't there

    And as the microphone squeaks
    A young girl's telephone beeps
    Yeah, she's dashing for the exit
    And she's running to the streets outside

    Oh, you've saved me!
    She screams down the line
    The band are fucking wank
    And I'm not having a nice time

    I don't want to hear you
    (Kick me out, kick me out)
    I don't want to hear, you know
    (Kick me out, kick me out)
    Yeah, but his bird thinks it's amazing, though
    So all that's left
    Is the proof that love's not only
    Blind but deaf

    He talks of San Francisco, he's from Hunter's Bar
    I don't quite know the distance, but I'm sure that's far
    Yeah, I'm sure that's pretty far

    And yeah, I'd love to tell you all my problem
    You're not from New York City, you're from Rotherham
    So get off the bandwagon and put down the handbook
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

    Get off the bandwagon and put down the handbook
    Get off the bandwagon and put down the handbook
    Get off the bandwagon and put down the handbook
    Get off the bandwagon and put down the handbook
    Yeah

  4. Dancing ShoesVer letra 2:22

    [X]

    letra de Dancing Shoes

    Get on your dancing shoes
    There's one thing on your mind
    Hoping they're looking for you
    Sure you'll be rummaging through

    And the shit, shock, horror
    You've seen your future bride
    Oh, but it's so so absurd
    For you to say the first word
    So you're waiting and waiting

    The only reason that you came
    So what you scared for?
    Don't you always do the same
    It's what you there for, don't you know

    The lights are flashing
    Down in here tonight
    And some might exchange a glance
    But keep pretending to dance

    Don't act like it's not happening
    As if it's impolite
    To go and mention your name
    Instead you'll just do the same
    As they all do, and hope for the best

    The only reason that you came
    So what you scared for?
    Well don't you always do the same
    It's what you're there for but no

    Get on your dancing shoes
    You sexy little swine
    Hoping they're looking for you
    Sure you'll be rummaging through

    Oh and the shit, shock, horror
    You've seen your future bride
    Oh, but it's oh so absurd
    For you to say the first word
    So you're waiting and waiting

  5. You Probably Couldn't See for the Lights But You Were Staring Straight 2:10
  6. Still Take You HomeVer letra 2:50

    [X]

    letra de Still Take You Home

    It's ever so funny
    I don't think you're special, I don't think you're cool
    And you're probably alright
    But under these lights you look beautiful
    And I'm struggling
    I can't see through your fake tan
    Oh, ya know it for a fact
    That everybody's eating outta your hand

    What do you know?
    Oh, you know nothing!
    Yeah, but I'll still take you home
    Yeah, I'll still take you home
    So what do you know?
    Say 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

    So what do you know?
    Oh you know nothing!
    But I'll still take you home
    Yeah, I'll still take you home
    So what do you know?
    Oh, you don't know nothing, no!

    Woah

    Yeah, so what do you know?
    Yeah! Oh you know nothing, no!
    Yeah, but I'll still take you home
    Yeah, I'll still take you home
    I said what do you know?
    Oh, you know nothing, no!

    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

  7. Riot VanVer letra 2:12

    [X]

    letra de Riot Van

    Up rolls a riot van
    And sparked excitement in the boys
    But the policemen look annoyed
    Perhaps these are ones they should avoid

    We got a chase last night
    From men with truncheons dressed in hats
    We didn't do that much wrong
    Still ran away though, for the laugh
    Just for the laugh

    Please just stop talking
    'Cause 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?
    Cause nobody told me

    And up rolls the riot van
    And these lads just wind the coppers up
    They ask why they don't catch proper crooks
    They get their address and their names took
    But they couldn't care less

    Thrown in a 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

  8. Red Light Indicates Doors Are SecuredVer letra 2:22

    [X]

    letra de Red Light Indicates Doors Are Secured

    We'll ask if we can have six in
    If not we'll have to have two
    Well, you're coming up our end, aren't you?
    So I'll get one with you

    Oh, won't he let us have six in?
    Especially not with the food
    He could've just told us no, though
    He didn't have to be rude

    You see her with the green dress?
    She talked to me at the bar
    Well, how come it's already two-pound-fifty?
    We've only gone about a yard

    Didn't you see she were gorgeous?
    She were beyond belief!
    But this lad at the side drinking his Smirnoff Ice
    Came and paid for her a Tropical Reef

    And I'm 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 near that taxi rank?
    Oh no, you would have missed it
    Think it were when you went to the bank

    These two lads squaring up, proper shouting
    'Bout who were next in the queue
    The kind of thing that would seem so silly
    But not when they've both had a few

    Well, calm down, temper, temper
    You shouldn't get so annoyed
    Well, you're acting like a silly little boy
    Oh, they wanted to be men and do some fighting in the street
    He said: No surrender
    No chance of retreat

    And so why are we in the taxi?
    'Cause 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 you sure?
    Went for it, but the red light was showing
    And red light indicates doors are secured

  9. Mardy BumVer letra 2:26

    [X]

    letra de Mardy Bum

    Now then, mardy bum
    I've seen 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 we just 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
    But I missed the train
    And then the traffic was a state
    But I can't be arsed to carry on in this debate
    That reoccurs, oh, when you say I don't care
    But 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
    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

    [X]

    letra de Perhaps Vampires Is a Bit Strong But...

    I've seen your eyes as they fix on me
    What is he doing? What on earth's the plan?
    Has he got one?
    You 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
    I'm not like you
    And I don't want your advice or your praise
    Or to move in the ways you do
    And I never will

    'Cause all you people are vampires
    And all your stories are stale
    And though you pretend to stand by us
    I know you're certain we'll fail

    I've seen your eyes as they fix on me
    Full of confusion
    Your snarl is just so condescending
    Try to explain that we're on to a win
    If the fee we got in
    Near recoups what we're spending

    He said "I can't believe that you drove all that way
    Well how much did they pay you?
    How much did they pay you?
    You'd have been better to stay round our way
    Thinking about things
    But not actually doing the things"

    'Cause all you people are vampires
    And all your stories are stale
    And though you pretend to stand by us
    I know you're certain we'll fail

    'Cause all you people are vampires
    And all your stories are stale
    And though you pretend to stand by us
    I know you're certain we'll fail

    All you people are vampires

  11. When the Sun Goes DownVer letra 3:17

    [X]

    letra de When the Sun Goes Down

    I said: "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
    Avert your eyes and staring at the ground
    She makes a subtle proposition
    I'm sorry love, I'll have to turn you down

    And oh, he must be up to summat
    What are the chances? Sure it'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, yeah

    They said it changes when the sun goes down
    Yeah, they said it changes when the sun goes down
    And they said it changes when the sun goes down
    Around here
    Around here

    And look, here comes a Ford Mondeo
    Isn't he Mr. Inconspicuous?
    And he don't even have to say owt
    She's in the stance ready to get picked up

    Bet 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
    It doesn't stop in the winter, no

    And they said it changes when the sun goes down
    Yeah, they said it changes when the sun goes down
    And they said it changes when the sun goes down
    Around here

    Well, they said it changes when the sun goes down
    Over the river going out of town
    They said it changes when the sun goes down
    Around here
    Around here

    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 nasty plan
    I hope you're not involved at all

    [X]

    letra de From the Ritz to the Rubble

    Last night, these two bouncers and one of em's alright
    The other one's the scary one and his way or no way, totalitarian
    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 realize 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
    And still 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 secretly I think they wants ya all to kick off
    They want arms flying everywhere and bottles as well
    It's just something to talk about, a story to tell ya

    Well, I'm so glad they turned us all away, we'll put it down to fate
    I said 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
    Said, 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 what you kissed last night
    You couldn't have done that on a Sunday
    Of course not

    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

    I said last night, what we talked about
    It made so much sense
    But now the haze has ascended
    It don't make no sense anymore

  13. A Certain RomanceVer letra 5:27

    [X]

    letra de 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
    Because their minds are made up
    And course it's all okay to carry on that way

    Is 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
    Because their minds are made up
    And course it's all okay to carry on that way

    I said no
    Oh, no!
    Well, oh, you won't get me to go!
    Not anywhere, not anywhere
    No, 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 they might overstep the line
    But you just cannot get angry in the same way
    No not in the same way
    So not in the same way
    Oh, no, oh, no, no
