  6. Parklife

    Letra

    Confidence is a preference for the habitual voyeur of what is known as (Parklife) And morning soup can be avoided if you take a route straight through what is known as (Parklife) John's got brewers droop, he gets intimidated by the dirty pigeons, they love a bit of it (Parklife) Who's that gut lord marching? You should cut down on your pork life mate, get some exercise All the people So many people And they all go hand in hand Hand in hand through their parklife Know what I mean? I get up when I want, except on Wednesdays when I get rudely awakened by the dustmen (Parklife) I put my trousers on, have a cup of tea and I think about leaving me house (Parklife) I feed the pigeons, I sometimes feed the sparrows too, it gives me a sense of enormous well being (Parklife) And then I'm happy for the rest of the day, safe in the knowledge there will always be a bit of my heart devoted to it All the people So many people And they all go hand in hand Hand in hand through their parklife Parklife (parklife) Parklife (parklife) It's got nothing to do with your Vorsprung durch Technik, you know Parklife (parklife) And it's not about you joggers who go 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round Parklife (parklife) All the people So many people And they all go hand in hand Hand in hand through their parklife All the people So many people And they all go hand in hand Hand in hand through their parklife

Yes you can We all say Don't want to be alone We wear the same clothes 'Cause we feel the same We kiss with dry lips When we say good night End of a century Oh, it's nothing special We all say Don't want to be alone We wear the same clothes 'Cause we feel the same We kiss with dry lips When we say good night End of a century Oh, it's nothing special Oh, end of a century Oh, it's nothing special

  11. Charmless Man

    Letra

    I met him in a crowded room Where people go to drink away their gloom He sat me down and so began The story of a charmless man Educated the expensive way He knows his claret from his Beaujolais I think he'd like to have been Ronnie Kray But then nature didn't make him that way Na na nana na, na na Na na nana na, na na He thinks he's educated airs Those family shares Will protect him That we'll respect him He moves in circles of friends Who just pretend That they like him He does the same to them And when you put it all together There's the model of a charmless man Na na nana na, na na Na na nanana na na, na na He knows the swingers and their cavalry Says he can get in anywhere for free I began to go a little cross-eyed And from this charmless man I just had to hide Na na nana na, na na Na na nana na, na na He talks at speed, he gets nose bleeds He doesn't see His days are tumbling Down upon him And yet he tries so hard to please He's just so keen For you to listen But no one's listening And when you put it all together There's the model of a charmless man He thinks he's educated airs Those family shares Will protect him That you'll respect him And yet he tries so hard to please He's just so keen For you to listen But no one's listening And when you put it all together There's the model of a charmless man Na na nana na, na na Na na nana na, na na Na na nana na, na na Na na nana na, na na Na nana na, na na Na nana na, na na Na nana na, na na na

    So the story begins City dweller, successful fella Thought to himself: Ops, I've got a lot of money Caught in a rat race terminally I'm a professional cynic, but my heart's not in it I'm paying the price of living life at the limit Caught up in the century's anxiety Yes, it preys on him (preys on him) He's getting thin (getting thin) Try the simple life He lives in a house, a very big house in the country Watching afternoon repeats and the food he eats in the country He takes all manner of pills and piles up analyst bills in the country Oh, it's like an animal farm, that's the rural charm in the country He's got morning glory and life's a different story Everything's going Jackanory Touched with his own mortality He's reading Balzac, knocking back Prozac It's a helping hand that makes you feel wonderfully bland Oh, it's a century's remedy For the faint at heart (faint at heart) A new start (new start) Try the simple life He lives in a house, a very big house in the country (Blow, blow me out, I am so sad) He's got a fog in his chest, so he needs a lot of rest in the country (I don't know why) He doesn't drink, smoke, laugh, takes herbal baths in the country (Blow, blow me out, I am so sad) You should come to no harm on the animal farm in the country (I don't know why) (Blow, blow me out, I am so sad I don't know why) (Blow, blow me out, I am so sad I don't know why) Oh, he lives in a house, a very big house in the country (Blow, blow me out, I am so sad) Watching afternoon repeats and the food he eats in the country (I don't know why) He takes all manner of pills and piles up analyst bills in the country (Blow, blow me out, I am so sad) Oh, it's like an animal farm, that's the rural charm in the country (I don't know why) Oh, he lives in a house a very big house in the country (Blow, blow me out, I am so sad) He's got a fog in his chest, so he needs a lot of rest in the country (I don't know why) He doesn't drink, smoke, laugh, takes herbal baths in the country (Blow, blow me out, I am so sad) But you'll come to no harm on the animal farm in the country (I don't know why)
  14. To The End

    Letra

    All these dirty words Jusqu'à la fin They make us look so dumb En plein soleil Been drinking far too much Jusqu'à la fin And neither of us mean what we say En plein amour Well you and I Collapsed in Love And it looks like we might have made it Yes it looks like we've made it to the end What happened to us Jusqu'à la fin Soon it will be gone forever En plein soleil Infatuated only with ourselves Jusqu'à la fin And neither of us can think straight anymore Well you and I Collapsed in Love And it looks like we might have made it Yes it looks like we've made it to the end Well you and I Collapsed in Love And it looks like we might have made it Yes it looks like we've made it to the end En plein amour You and I collapsed in Love And it looks like we might have made it Yes it looks like we've made it to the end En plein soleil En plein soleil En plein soleil...

  16. This Is A Low

    Letra

    And into the sea Goes pretty England and me Around the Bay of Biscay And back for tea Hit traffic on the Dogger Bank Up the Thames to find a taxi rank Sail on by with the tide And go to sleep And the radio says This is a low But it won't hurt you When you're alone It will be there with you Finding ways to stay solo Up the Tyne, Forth and Cromarty There's a low in the High Forties Saturday's locked away on the pier Not fast enough, dear And on the Malin Head Blackpool looks blue and red And the Queen, she's gone 'round the bend Jumped off Land's End And the radio says This is a low But it won't hurt you When you're alone It will be there with you Finding ways to stay solo This is a low But it won't hurt you When you're alone It will be there with you This is a low But it won't hurt you When you're alone It will be there with you Finding ways to stay solo
