    letra de A Thousand Trees

    Standing at the bus stop with my shopping in my hands

    And I'm overhearing elder ladies

    As the rumours start to fly

    Hear them in the school yard

    In the scrap yard

    In the chip shop

    In the phone box

    In the pool hall

    At the shoe stall

    Every corner turn around



    It started with a school girl

    Who was running

    Running home to her Mam and Dad

    Told them she was playing in the change room of the local football side

    They said tell us again, she told them again

    Tell us the truth, they found it hard to believe

    'Cause he taught our Steve, even trained me, taught uncle John who's a father of three



    Only takes one tree to make a thousand matches

    Only takes one match to burn a thousand trees

    Thousand trees



    You see it in the classroom

    In the swimming pool

    Where the match stick men are made

    At the scout's hall

    At the football

    Where the wise we trust are paid



    They all honour his name

    He did a lot for the game

    Got his name knocked up above the sports ground gates

    Now they're ripping them down

    Stamping the ground

    Picture gathers dust in the bar in the lounge



    It takes one tree, to make a thousand matches

    Only takes one match, to burn a thousand trees

    Thousand trees



    Wake up, smell the rain

    Shake up, he's back to stay

    Hasn't been on a holiday

    Growing seeds don't believe

    Why he's been away



    From the school yard

    Changing room

    Playing fields

    Bathroom

    Phone box

    Office blocks

    Corners turn around



    They keep doubting the flame

    Tossing the blame

    Got his name knocked up above the sports ground gates

    Now they're ripping them down

    Stamping the ground

    Picture gathers dust in the bar



    And it only takes one tree to make a thousand matches

    Only takes one match to burn a thousand trees

    Thousand trees

    Thousand trees

    Thousand trees

    [X]

    letra de Looks Like Chaplin

    I feel awash
    Close down the street
    Yeah Chaplin walks
    Be 9:15
    And I hear them, hear them call his name
    And I see him, see him turn away

    They take him in
    And clean him up

    They take him in
    And strip him down
    They dry his skin
    And feed him wine
    And I hear them, hear them call his name
    And I see him, see him turn away

    Ask's to use the phone

    Yeah he lives alone, he lives alone
    There's no one, no one home to phone
    He sits alone at home
    He call his home his own
    His wife is still unknown

    letra de Local Boy in the Photograph

    There's no mistake, I smell that smell
    It's that time of year again, I can taste the air
    The clocks go back, railway track
    Something blocks the line again
    And the train runs late for the first time

    A pebble beach, we're underneath, a pier that's just been painted red
    Where I heard the news for the first time

    And all the friends lay down the flowers
    Sit on the banks and drink for hours
    Talk of the way they saw him last
    Local boy in the photograph
    Today

    He'll always be 23, yet the train runs on and on
    Past the place they found his clothing

    There's no mistake, I smell that smell
    It's that time of year again, I can taste the air
    The clocks go back, railway track
    Something blocks the line again
    And the train runs late for the first time
    Today

    And all the friends lay down the flowers
    Sit on the banks and drink for hours
    Talk of the way they saw him last
    Local boy in the photograph
    Today

    He's gone away

    letra de Traffic

    We all face the same way, Still it takes all day
    I take a look to my left, Pick out the worst and the best
    She paints her lip, greasy and thick
    Another mirror stare
    And she's going where?

    Another office affair, to kill an unborn scare
    You talk dirty to a priest, it makes you human at least
    Is she running away, to start a brand new day?
    Or she's going home, why's she driving alone?

    Is anyone going anywhere?
    Everyone's got to be, somewhere

    She's got a body in the boot? Or just bags of food?
    Those are models legs, but are they women's, are they men's?
    She shouts down the phone, she missed a payment on the loan
    She's go to be above the rest, keeping up with the best

    Is anyone going anywhere?
    Everyone's got to be, somewhere

    Waits tables for a crook? You wrote a hardback book
    You teach kids how to read, sell your body on the street
    And nurse without a job, another up town snob
    But have I got you all wrong, one look and you were gone

    Is anyone going anywhere?
    Is anyone going anywhere?
    Is anyone going anywhere?
    Everyone's got to be, somewhere

  8. Same Size FeetVer letra 4:00

    letra de Same Size Feet

    A weeks too long, not to ring
    Re-colours her hair, and waits for him
    Not cat against dog, just head over heels
    Sex twice a day, best time in years
    Oh no, why hasn't he phoned?
    She has to wait until he's on his own
    Lying and Denying so nobody knows
    I'll tell her this week is what he tells
    Her to keep her on loan
    He'll buy her one day

    Sex drives, oral highs, cheating wife's spouse
    Cream cakes, coffee dates, floral gifts, goodbye
    Pass the way for the day had a change of kind
    Sex change, to mundane for the average mind
    Oh no, she just can't see
    Where he is and where he's been
    Looked prim and straight
    Like she's always been

    All that she saved for went missing again
    She could be, she could be, she could be wrong
    She could be, she could be, she could be wrong
    She could be, she could be, she could be wrong
    It looks like, it looks like, it looks like the worlds gone wrong

    They found a body in the lake
    maybe it wasn't really his name
    Same colour, same weight, same size feet
    It's the not knowing that kills you
    Oh no the clocks stopped slow, everytime you're on your own
    ya' hide from the spies so nobody knows
    Scratch through the pages on the lazy days news for a clue
    Still looking for you

    letra de Last of the Big Time Drinkers

    Ten minutes flat after that day at the factory
    I'm Drinking like a dog in the sun
    I don't need to eat or sleep a wink, at the weekend
    Drop my guts

    And I can't wait for my next drink
    The first one is gonna sink
    I'm the last of the big time drinkers
    I take pride in my work
    Last of the big time drinkers

    The beer don't taste the same without my name painted on my glass
    I don't live to work, I work to live, I live at the weekend
    I nearly spent a week in the sun
    Come home with my bird, sheets thrown out the window
    And sunday morning comes

    And I can't wait for my next drink
    The first one is gonna sink
    I'm the last of the big time drinkers
    I take pride in my work
    Last of the big time drinkers

    The beer don't taste the same without my name painted on my glass

    And I can't wait for my next drink
    The first one is gonna sink
    I'm the last of the big time drinkers
    I take pride in my work
    Last of the big time drinkers

    Just give me half a pint of slops
    Last of the big time drinkers
    I take pride in my job
    Last of the big time drinkers

    the same long faces in the workman's hall caramel crisp counts

    sleeping thieving cheating beating I'm eating I'm deep in a goldfish bowl It's sink

  11. Too Many SandwichesVer letra 5:01

    [X]

    letra de Too Many Sandwiches

    Shopping spree for the family tree, haven't seen your family tree, in quite a while
    Too many sandwiches and wine, sherry stains down your best mans tie, what a speech
    The band arrive, the grannies cry, the singers tongue's's in the bar maids mouth, what a voice
    Grandpa drunk a drop or two and his head's still stuck down the portaloo, what a man

    You bought a sequin dress for your chicken breasts, the discos late and he's overpaid tonight
    You got a diamond ring and a man who sings, the man who sings made love to the bar maid twice
    And that's just tonight

    The blue rinsed hairs lift up their chairs
    The bands too loud, they're off down stairs what a noise
    The bride and groom they dance their dance
    The singer mimes there's still a chance, the bar maid smiles

    You bought a sequin dress for your chicken breasts, the discos late and he's overpaid tonight
    You got a diamond ring and a man who sings, the man who sings made love to the bar maid twice
    And that's just tonight

    You bought a sequin dress for your chicken breasts, the discos late and he's overpaid tonight
    You got a diamond ring and a man who sings, the man who sings made love to the bar maid twice
    Grandpa drunk a drop or two and his head's still stuck down the portaloo, what a man
    The bride and groom they dance their dance, the singer mimes there's still a chance tonight
    And the bar maid smiles
