Well, I wrote my number down.
I'd never wrote it down before.
I was gonna bring over like something from a film but
I didn't have the bottle at all.
Well I had a look and you kept staring.
Your head pairing up with mine
Cos your so pretty and I'm so shy.
You proper did give me the eye though im sure you did
Well I went outside, couldn't say i tried.
And I felt regret.
But in a flash yeah i'd dashed back in.
Cos the ship had'nt sailed yet.
And when i did I couldn't see your face
I could see your mates but that wouldn't do.
I dashed around to find you
But you were nowhere to be seen
Oh no no
na na na na na na na na na na na
na na na na na na na na na na na
na na na na na na na na na na na
na na na na na nooooo
Well yeah she flew away.
She seemed like weeks or months away.
(missing lines)
Yeah but i learned my lesson though.
Your so pretty and i'm so shy
Bigger Boys And Stolen Sweethearts
There's always somebody taller
With more of a wit
And he's equipped to enthrall her
And her friends think he's fit
And you just can't measure up no
You don't have a prayer
Wishing you had made the most of her
When she was there
They've got engaged
No intention of a wedding
He's pinched your bird
And he'd probably kick your head in
Bigger Boys and Stolen Sweethearts
You're better off without her anyway
You said you wasn't sad to see her go
Oh no
He might be one of those boys
That's all pretty and vain
Likes to go in the sunbed
And stays out of the rain
So that he don't get his hair wet
You wouldn't want that
At least he hasn't got a Nova
Or a Burberry hat
They've got engaged
No intention of a wedding
He's pinched your bird
And he'd probably kick your head in
Bigger Boys and Stolen Sweethearts
You're better off without her anyway
You said you wasn't sad to see her go
Of course you were
Have you heard what she's been doing?
Never did it for me
He picks her up at the school gates
At twenty past three
She's been with all the boys
But never went very far
She wagged English and Science
Just to go in his car
They've got engaged
No intention of a wedding
He's pinched my bird
And he'd probably kick my head in, oh
Now the girls have grown
But I'm sure they still carry on in similar ways
Bigger Boys and Stolen Sweethearts
So I'm better off without her anyway
I said I wasn't sad to see her go
But I'm only pretending, you know
Yeah, I'm only pretending, you know
Yeah, I'm only pretending, you know
Oh I'm only pretending, you know

And they've decided that they're gonna let her drive

Get out the way, mister
With your short sharp tips
No, I won't read your lips right now
And baby, hey
You send a shiver down my spine
But do you read my mind
Do you...
And you're looking pretty suspicious
And probably planning a heist
He's wanting to go to the strippers
It makes him feel all nice

The cigarette smoke in your eyes
Watching a stripper and

Smacking a bloke here tonight
Get out the way, mister
With your short sharp tips

For speeding on his way there

From tourists in trafalgar square

The cigarette smoke in your eyes
Watching a stripper and

Curtains Close
I said I wanted it long but you cut it short
And now I'm catching a cold
I told you not but no crack in the doobie
But it was already rolled
Oh, I turned down my lights
And my curtains weren't closed
I turned down my lights
And my curtains weren't closed
Oh well, I turned down my lights
And my curtains weren't closed last night
Oh baby, I must be mad
Well, I don't care about your massage oils
It's got my skin going red
Cause I'm a mad mother-fucker
With my curtains open
Sitting tucked up in bed
I turned down my lights
And my curtains weren't closed

Da Frame 2R
007 and Brucey Wayne,
Are shitting themselves because there's another name,
Coming to claim what is his to claim,
10% faster with a sturdier frame,
He's certainly come into his own,
There's one on is arm in every land that he roams,
And two consecutive nights alone,
Are a thing of the past as he has recently shown
They said he looks so handsome,
Stood not dancing,
Drawing you in like it's boring to him,
It's a war you can't win and the first and the last are two thing's you'll never be my darling,
Another run around and another push and shove,
Further away from the idea of love,
And his conclusion it must be good,
Or when the penny has dropped with an incredible thud,
Forgot to kick the tin,
He knows where she's going but dunt' know where she's been,
And there's the plus of the other thing,
He'll worry about it when it's trouble he's in,
They said he looks so handsome,
Stood not dancing,
Drawing you in like it's boring to him,
It's a war you can't win and the first and the last are two thing's you'll never be my darling,
Thing's you'll never be my darling,
(Thing's you'll never be my darling)
Two thing's you will never be my darling,
(Thing's you'll never be my darling)
Well he sneered and sniffed and spat at my chat up lines,
Not to feel like a twat at times, is hard,
But not for this kid, not when they come to you
Diamonds Are Forever
Diamonds are forever,
They are all I need to please me,
They can stimulate and tease me,
They won't leave in the night,
I've no fear that they might desert me.
Diamonds are forever,
Hold one up and then caress it,
Touch it, stroke it and undress it,
I can see every part,
Nothing hides in the heart to hurt me.
I don't need love,
For what good will love do me?
Diamonds never lie to me,
For when love's gone,
They'll luster on.
Diamonds are forever,
Sparkling round my little finger.
Unlike men, the diamonds linger;
Men are mere mortals who
Are not worth going to your grave for.
I don't need love,
For what good will love do me?
Diamonds never lie to me,
For when love's gone,
They'll luster on.
Diamonds are forever, forever, forever.
Diamonds are forever, forever, forever.
Forever and ever

And now sting me... get in the groove

Love Machine
Ladies you're damn right
You can't read a man's mind
We're living in two tribes
And heading for war
Nobody's perfect
We've all got to work it
But fellas we're worth it
So don't break the law
Your call's late
Big mistake
You've gotta hang about in limbo for as long as I take
Next time
Read my mind
And I'll be good to you
We're gift wrapped

We only turn into tigers when we've got to fight
(Right)
Let's go
Eskimo
Out into the blue
Come take my hand
Understand
That you can
You're my man
And i need you tonight
Come make my dreams
Honey hard as it seems
Lovin' me
Is as easy as pie
I'm just a love machine
Feeding my fantasy
Give me a kiss or three
and I'm fine
I need a squeeze a day
Instead of this negligee
What will the neighbors say
This time
I've been goin' crazy while you sleep
Thinkin' of a language that the two of us can speak
So Mr. Prehistoric make your wheel
and I'll be underwater 'cause i like the way it feels
(I said) Your call's late
Big mistake
You've gotta hang about in limbo for as long as I take

On The Run From The Mi5
Come and take a leaf out of my book
I'm a crack dealing crook
Selling lots of rock and roll to the masses
And I know if you wanna take a trip to the city
We can go (to Gibraltar)
We can go (to Gibraltar)
Let's go, let's go, let's go, come on
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Let's go, let's go, let's go, come on
Give me your switch card - I'll book some flights
1996 and I'm stuck at the bottom of a truck
On the run from the MI5, got detectives
And I'll say if you catch me that I really wish
That I had stayed (in Gibraltar)
That I had stayed (in Gibraltar)
Let's go, let's go, let's go, come on
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Let's go, let's go, let's go, come on
Plastic Tramp
He looks as if he hasn't slept,
His hair is purposely unkept.
Then he knew his people wept
When you crafted your plan.
Shadows underneath the eyes,
And everywhere the bastard lies,
My lack of proof is your disguise,
You won't remember me.
There's nothing really I can say,
I'm sorry mate and walk away.
I could be wrong unless you play your game.
It's wonderful and most unkind,
And Horrible is redefined.
I can't imagine that you'd mind at all.
You're lying again, your conscious ain't you friend.
And the only thing you are sorting out is your imagination.
Is he really on the street,
Desperation or deceit?
And what he's wearing on his feet will solve our mystery.
And I am baffled by how you stand there soaking it in.
Do you hide your identity where you hide your grin?
Better hide your grin
Ravey Ravey Ravey Club
She's the victim, well fuck all that we ain't goin home today
And she's been too much magic beans to walk all men away
And she's been eatin' too much magic beans to walk all men away
Put up your picture and the playful love will get around
Yeah but we'll get around yeah
Yeah but we'll get around
Well everyones felling alright
I won't be sleeping today
No I won't be sleeping tonight
We're felling silly, I'm feeling oh so sick
And I can't see you through the smoke because the clouds so thick
And theres a fire as your dancing to the disco sound
Put up your picture baby and love will get around
Yeah but we'll get around yeah
But yeah we'll get around
Everyone's feeling alright
I won't be sleeping today
And I won't be sleeping tonight
Riot Van (Demo Version)
We got thrown in a riot van
And the coppers kicked him in
And there was no way he could win
Just had to take it on the chin
Smoked a bong a last night
And stole somebody's telephone
He thinks it's all alright
But they've left him on his own, on his own
But baby stop calling
Over and over yeah
And give me some funny cigarettes
And do what they told you, yeah
Pinched a car with one headlight
And lost control the passengers were screaming
Made him shut his eyes reet tight
And think of you, and hope that he was dreaming
Then up rolled the riot van
And called the fire brigade
But it was already too late
And there was no arrests to make
Ohhhhh!
But baby stop calling
Over and over yeah
And give me some funny cigarettes
And do what they told you, yeah
Scummy
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
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
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
And look here comes a Ford Mondeo
Isn't he Mister 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
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
Over the river going out to town
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
Settle For A Draw
Well, I watch you tangle every weekend
It might start different but it ends up the same
One minute you're casually speaking
The next it all goes up and you pull fletch up on the plane with your
Jeri can of words and songs
Noone's gonna start a revolution
So why do we even moan?
And there's something that Frankie used to say, apparently
Oh, he said settle for a draw
Cause you're not gonna get no more
So you should settle for a draw
I've told you once I'm sure
I've told you once I'm sure you should settle for the draw
Why don't you settle for the draw?
Well you're right it is one set of rules for her
But then another set for you
But that's just the way it is, I suppose
And there's nowt you can do
And let's not fall in the trap of answering back
I am just a beginner
But I know she'll be the winner
That's for sure
So take the draw if it's available
And if it sets on fire
Don't get out your jeri can of
Words and songs
Noone's gonna start a revolution
So you better leave it well alone
And there's something that Frankie used to say, apparently
Oh, he said settle for a draw
Cause you're not gonna get no more
So you should settle for a draw
I've told you once I'm sure
I've told you once I'm sure you should settle for the draw
Why don't you settle for the draw?
Space Invaders
Space invaders flying home
Yeah, they're going to hit the sack
And they are prob'ly going to die getting high
Cause they're mixing crazy ... with the crack
And she's kissing all the boys
She's to clever to be slack
But she's bound to go away for a day
In July, so she won't be coming back

In July, so she won't be coming back

Baby, baby, baby
Your good old days are dead
So come on!

Take It Or Leave It
Leave me alone

Enough is enough
We're on the minds of other men I know she was
And take it or leave it

Temptation Greets You Like Your Naughty Friend
I don't ever want to hate you,
So don't show me your bed,
The only roads are cul-de-sacs,
The first thing that she said.
Temptation, greets you like your naughty mate,
The one that used to get you in bother,
But one you could never bring yourself to hate.
And she said we've got that spark,
That only lights a fuse,
Helps you see in the dark,
But it's a sight you'll lose when,
The temptation greets you like your naughty friend.
I don't ever want to hate you,
So don't show me your bed,
The only roads are cul-de-sacs,
The only ends are dead.
Temptation greets you like your naughty mate,
One that made you steal and set things on fire,
But one you haven't seen of late.
And I said that kind of talk,
Only adds intrigue,
To the cauldron of thought,
It's already exceeding,
Temptation, the very thing that held her back.
I don't ever want to hate you,
So don't show me your bed,
The only roads are cul-de-sacs,
The only ends are dead.
I don't ever want to hate you,
It's not part of the plan,
So keep your charm where I can't see it,
And your hands where I can.
{Dizzee Rascal}
We used to be in tight me and my naughty friends,
Caused enticement[?] in the air,
I mean day 'n' night,
We robbed, we stole, we loved to fight,
Smoking, drinking, joyriding,
Drugs, thugs, not law-abiding,
Reckless gangsters[?] no direction,
No sign of correction,
But then i switched it off,
Changed my ways,
What the hell!
Like oh my days ,
But like my naughty friends,
They're not phased,
Can't believe that this music pays,
See no reason why we can't do,
All the things we've always done,
Still in my heart I know thats just what,
But its hard to fight the temptation son.
{Arctic Monkeys}
The panic will fall down around you,
If you don't do what i say.
I don't ever want to hate you,
So don't show me your bed,
The only roads are cul-de-sacs,
The only ends are dead.
I don't ever want to hate you,
It's not part of the plan,
So keep your charm where I can't see it,
And your hands where I can
The Bakery Song
I wish you would have smiled in the bakery
or sat on a tatty settee
at some mutual friend's gathering
and the more you keep on looking
the more it's hard to take
love, we're in stale mate
to never meet is surely where we're bound
there's one in every town
just there to grind you down
I wish I would have seen you in the post office
well maybe I did and I missed it
too busy with a mind on clever rhymes
why not the rounders pitch or the canteen
you're slacking love, where have you been?
Just had to go and wait until tonight
so give me the invite
don't worry it's alright
I wish I would have seen you down in the arcade
sipping on a lemonade in the paper cup and chewing on the straw
and I wish I would have seen you in the bakery
but if I'd seen you in the bakery you probably wouldn't have seen me
The Nettles
Sank into their calculations and snorted on a stench
a bare arithmetic
look for the boy who was hanging his head low
more trophies and ideas
to follow their pretend.
with a scowl in his pocket and a smile on his face
he followed with obedience and fell in the nettles.
I flew in some spiked meniscus and he bought his own rope
and skipped against the rode
did start not to find the dark lead and catch that man i hope
devices man are closed
he lost all his foot holes.
and with a scowl in his pocket and a smile on his face
he followed with obedience and fell in the nettles,fell in the nettles, fell in the nettles
he was a toothpick and the garlic and the cinder upon the pub
failed to blunt or hinder, a slow collapse
and clinging to the door frame he was trapped
after a reminder of where he had been
with a smile in his pocket and a scowl on his face
there was nowhere to flee
just had to tent in the nettles
Too Much To Ask
The smiles as she walked in the room
Have all turned into frowns
Am I too quick to assume
That the love is no longer in bloom
The tantrums and the tears play a very different tune to what they did before
Their heads red raw
and the ending doesn't sound like the happiest around
When you sobbed before
It felt much more like the product of a squabble
Now there's reason for it to be something more
And there would be
Always uncertain weather the curtain has shut for good
She said see if it's still raining
I'm not dressed for it and
If you loved me and (help me out here)
I decided to stop her there
Would it be outrageous to say
We're either shouting or we're shagging
Locked in tempestuous phase
At least that's how it felt yesterday
The eyes are getting heavier
and weather they are asleep or awake
There's a mystery
would a kiss be too much to ask
When you feed me a Sunday's frozen (?) a thermos flask
It's a pity
It just hit me we cant go back
To the chest touching on the back
Wavin' Bye To The Train Or Bus
Oh baby, I'm wanting to do you a swap
I'll give you anything, yeah
In return for the noises you've got
And I can see you want to be attended to
Just count to twenty-nine and I'll attend to you
Oh for sure... well certainly, yeah yeah yeah
Wavin' bye to the train or the bus
I'm ever so worried because...
I don't want to get all forgotten...
So very comfortable..
Don't really need to put up my feet,
And even in fat sam's grand slam,
Can't see it being easier to speak.
when you've karate-kicked your way to someone new
And I'm a memory and don't know what to do
All on his own...
Collecting his dole n' stuff
Wavin' bye to the train or the bus
I'm ever so worried because...
I don't want to get all forgotten...
Cause we know
Yeah, we know-oh-oh-oh
Oh we know, a woah-oh-oh
Don't know where we're going, baby
I s'pose it depends
But even if we're all far apart
We can all come back and all be fine
We'll be able to be together again
Be together again
Be together again
Be together again
...
Everybody will be together again!
What If You Were Right The First Time?
The mixture between,
The fantastic dream,
And the fear,
You wonder where she is,
This afternoon.
And does it get on your nerves,
Make you slightly perturbed,
That there's things that you don't know about her?
And even the places that she's never been with yer, seem awful empty without her.
You can't look into those eyes,
Down no telephone line,
What if you were right first time? x2
The mixture between,
The fantastic dream,
And the fear,
You wonder where she is,
This afternoon.
You can't look into those eyes,
Down no telephone line,
What if you were right first time?
