- The View from the AfternoonVer letra 3:38
[X]Anticipation has the habit to set you upletra de The View from the Afternoon
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 - I Bet You Look Good on the DancefloorVer letra 2:53
[X]Stop making the eyes at meletra de I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor
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 - Fake Tales of San FranciscoVer letra 2:56
[X]Fake tales of San Franciscoletra de 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 - Dancing ShoesVer letra 2:22
[X]Get on your dancing shoesletra de 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 - You Probably Couldn't See for the Lights But You Were Staring Straight 2:10
- Still Take You HomeVer letra 2:50
[X]It's ever so funnyletra de Still Take You Home
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 - Riot VanVer letra 2:12
[X]Up rolls a riot vanletra de 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 - Red Light Indicates Doors Are SecuredVer letra 2:22
[X]We'll ask if we can have six inletra de Red Light Indicates Doors Are Secured
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 - Mardy BumVer letra 2:26
Mezclas: Barny, Jim AbbissMúsicos invitados: Andreas Bayr (Recorded By)[X]Now then, mardy bumletra de 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 - Perhaps Vampires Is a Bit Strong But...Ver letra 4:25
[X]I've seen your eyes as they fix on meletra de Perhaps Vampires Is a Bit Strong But...
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 - When the Sun Goes DownVer letra 3:17
Músicos invitados: Alan Smyth (Recorded By [Additional Recording])[X]I said: "Who's that girl there?"letra de When the Sun Goes Down
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 - From the Ritz to the RubbleVer letra 3:11
[X]Last night, these two bouncers and one of em's alrightletra de From the Ritz to the Rubble
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 - A Certain RomanceVer letra 5:27
[X]Well oh they might wear classic reeboksletra de A Certain Romance
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
