Pete Doherty Lyrics

Last of the English Roses lyrics

My oh you did look dapper with famous Auntie Aurthur's trousers on,
You were slapped by that slapper and how we all laughed,
But you laughed the loudest .
In 1999 you could charm the best of the bees.

"Saucy" you'd say (she'd say) and we all fell around,
rolling 'round the playground,
"Cheeky" you'd say (she'd say) and we all fell around,
rolling 'round the playground.

You could be yourself
We could be ourselves

All the boys together
All the girls together now

She's the last of the English roses
She's the last of the English roses

Around the snooker table she danced the frutti tutti
She spilt the lager, toasting girls of great beauty

All the girls together
All the boys together now

She's the last of the English roses
She's the last of the English roses
(repeat)

Wolfman feat. Pete Doherty - For Lovers Lyrics

I'm running away with you
that's all I ever do
that's all we ever mean
I forgive you
everything
meet me at the railroad bar
about 7 o'clock
we joke while the sun goes down
watch the lovers
leaving town

This is for lovers
running away
This is for lovers
running away
just for today

I'm running away with you
from yesterday's news
let's leave it all behind
help me back to my mind
I've paid the penalty
your the jailer rattling the key
but the key is mine
I keep a spare one every time

This is for lovers
running away
This is for lovers
running away
just for today

This is for lovers
running away
This is for lovers
running away
just for today
This is for lovers
running away
This is for lovers
running away
just for today

This is for lovers
running away


The Streets feat. Pete Doherty - Prangin' Out Lyrics

I get back from touring
Suddenly it doesn't seem like much fun to be off my face
At a quarter to eleven am

You're prangin' out
I see through you
I feel awful
These voices talkin' to me
This ain't funny
??? my house for four fucking weeks
I see through you
I'm about to do something stupid

I dare say why my manager got lary and smacked me
These headaches are gettin' unbearably nasty
Staring at the crackwork, lookin' scary with me brandy
The rock 'n roll cliche walked in and then smacked me
Carelessly rackin' out prangs just to handle the fear
I do a line but then panic and feel a bit prang'd
So I glug marlon from the bottle to ease of the panic
Then when it starts wearing off, I just feel a bit sad
Snort more tour support, and then have a drink
The bruise on the side of my head is madly banging
The only reason I started this was the deal me a laughin'
The only reason I started this was the deal me a laughin'

You're prangin' out
I see through you
These voices talkin' to me
This aint funny
I see through you
I'm about to do something stupid

The girl in my bed is kinda distant right now,
I know shes thinkin' shes a bit frightened somehow,
I don't think she relised what i'd invited her back to my house
I don't want anyone to see me like this right now
I sorts thoughts rollin' back in my eyes
I've been a poor sports thoughts dance in my mind
A banging headache dancin prang'd by their side
Dancin' with the pictures from the past of my life
I don't remember any of what I just thought at all
The conclusion prior to when I forgot it all
Panicing a bit, gettin' frightened 'n fuck all
So nursing my bruise I drink right from the bottle
I don't want anyone I know to see my like this
My fibs and single became lies and lists
She's gonna sell-tell no doubt fuck it
I'm not going to start drinkin', no, i can't for now

You're prangin' out
I see through you
These voices talkin' to me
This aint funny
I see through you
I'm about to do something stupid

My laptop must have slipped down and gone to sleep
Before the prangers pain must've dawned on me
Stupid idiot!
Around the time i was skethchin tryin to con some sleep
And the new day on me was nearly dawning in here
I must have flaked while i puttied
Way to loads more
Cuz i'd staked on bookings
Waited to tell the score
Why do i break my rules not to wager any more
I flaked on the bookings and majorly totalled on the score
I've got a simple problem
But my minds spinning out
I remembered the website between the wine and the stout
The rush of fear made me forget how fucked i'd been
This time i'm drying my eyes and a fuckin' nose bleed
Turnin' the phone off when my promo bloke phones me
Evaded for it got nasty when my manager when he only beat me
I threw his wallet out the window as it had grown heated
He said 'sort your life out' as he punched me onto my feet

You're prangin' out
I see through you
These voices talkin' to me
This aint funny
I see through you
I'm about to do something stupid

You're prangin' out
I see through you
These voices talkin' to me
This aint funny
I see through you
I'm about to do something stupid

Right now logic states I need to be not contemplating suicide
'Cause rational thought it would seem that i need not to be doing stuff
That makes death seem like an easier option
I need a totally trojan plan right now
I see through you


Littl'ans feat Pete Doherty - Their Way lyrics

Their way
Forces your hand
There was no way to tell you
I just hoped you'd understand
I was waiting for you
Alone with that boy
He needed a sympathy
He just didn't want to have to say why

This way I'll always be (for you)
And to see you now and help me on
You know they like to knock me down
But I don't stay down for very long

I couldn't win but I could lose
And so the time had come and I knew I'd have to choose
But that kiss, I take to the end
Until the next time I get to see you again

This way I'll always be for you
And to know you now will see me through
(Away) you know I knew you there
And to see you know and help me on
You know they like to knock me down
But I don't stay down for very long
They try to sing their wayward song
But oh what a way I found

This way I'll always be for you
And to know you now will see me through
(Away) you know I knew you there
I don't stay down for very long
You know they like to knock me down
But I don't stay down for very long
They tried to say their wayward song
But oh what a way I've found




Babyshambles
32 of December

Don't talk about it
Don't want to know about it
Arguing with you's no good
You'll be nobody's fool but you'll almost speak...
Don't let me know about it

Don't let me know about the 32nd of December
Oh, thats the night I'm trying so hard to forget
All you do is you come around and make me remember
What I try, oh that I, what I....

Still you talk about it
Still don't wanna know all about it

Anybody want tea?
Anybody, thank you, ah fuck me
But don't speak
And don't talk about it

Don't talk about the 32nd of December
Thats the night im trying so hard to forget
So all you do is you phone me, and I remember
Remember what I try
That I, what I...

You know that I...
You was a stickler for manners
So don't you say goodbye
No, not to a good old friend,

I get by, please
I get by
And get by
Argggh, so what you running from?

Still, ahh don't talk about it
Still, don't want to know about it

Don't want to know about it
The 32nd of December
Thats the night im trying so hard to forget
All you do is come around and make me remember
Remember what I try
What I, that I...

... nice reason, I'll go
But they'll never do
They'll never do

8 Dead Boys

Sit right down cause you're a friend
You know there ain't too many left of them
You said I want love, I want it all

You look better now than last time
But you still look better from afar
The life that you wanted was not in store
You're being the dark horse again

Hello, Hello
Hello, My Love [x3]

Stop your moaning and I'll give you a taster
They give you and line and they call you a waster
Give you a line, oh what a waster
So don't!
You say you will or you won't
Do or you don't [x3]

Cause you look better now than the last time
But you're still no better than before
The life that you wanted wasn't in store
You're being the dark horse again

Hello, Hello
Hello, My Love [x3]

When it suits you, you're a friend of mine [x15]

Cause you look better now than the last time
But you're still no better than before
The life that you wanted wasn't in store
You're being the dark horse again

Cause you look better now than the last time
But you're still no better than before
The life that you wanted wasn't in store
You're being the dark horse again


Albion lyrics

Down in Albion
Ah, they're black and blue
But we don't talk about that
Are you from 'round here?
How do you do?
I'd like to talk about that

Talk over
Gin in teacups
And leaves on the lawn
Violence in bus stops
And pale thin girl with eyes forlorn

Aah, gin in teacups
And leaves on the lawn
Violence in dole queues
And pale thin girl behind the checkout

But if you're looking for a cheap sort
Glint with perspiration
There's a four-mile queue
Outside the disused power station
Now come away, won't you come away
We'll go to
Deptford, Digby...
Anywhere in Albion

Yellowing classics
And canons at dawn

But if you're looking for a cheap sort
That's in false anticipation
It'll be waiting in the photo booth
At the railway station

Ah come away, won't you come away
We're going to...
Watford, London Fields
Anywhere oh

If you're looking for a cheap sort
That's in false anticipation
It'll be waiting in the photo booth
At the underground station

Oh come away, won't you come away
We're going to...


Another Girl From Another Planet

I always flirt with death
I could kill, but I don't care about it
I can face your threats
Stand up tall and scream and shout about it

I think I'm on another world with you
I'm on another planet with you

You get under my skin and
I don't find it irritating
You always play to win
I don't need rehabilitating

Another girl, another planet
Another girl, another planet

Space travels in my blood
And there ain't nothing I can do about it
Long journeys wear me out
Oh God we won't live without it

Another girl is loving you now
Another planet, forever holding you down
Another planet


Arcady

In Arcady, your life trips along
It's pure and simple as the shepherd's song
Seraphic pipes along the way in Arcady
In Arcady
Never saw I such a scene
Such maids upon such a molten green
They employ their holiday with dance and game
And things I may never name
In Arcady

You said he was your teacher
Taught you so true and so wise
But now you know more than your teacher
I see nothing but cool self-regard in your eyes
In Arcady

So you see how twisted it becomes
See how quickly twisted it becomes
When the cat gut binds my ankles to your bedstead
That ain't love, no that ain't love

Said he was your teacher
Taught you so true and so wise
Now you know more than your teacher
I see nothing but cool self-regard in your eyes

In Arcady, your life trips along
Pure and simple as the shepherd's song
Seraphic pipes along the way in Arcady


At The Flophouse lyrics

Everything's got to be
Just how it has to be
Or he won't play
And I know that boy wants to
Approach me and say
All he's got to say
Maybe he'll say it today
Maybe not

There was a slight altercation
Down at the station
No hope today
There's blood on hands and steps
I'm holding my head
she's got some front
Did you hear what she said

And I'm so soz if I neglected you
I mean you no harm, mean you no harm
And I'm so soz if I disprespected you
I mean you no harm

Oh look around, it's true
Tonight I'll be chasing you

I took one draft of life
Paid only the market price
Now I'm estranged
And I'm so lonely now
But I'm not alone
Licking your boot
Maybe I'll work from home
Maybe notEverything's got to be
Just how it has to be A'Rebours
Or he won't play
And I know that boy wants to
Approach me and say
All he's got to say
Maybe he'll say it today
Maybe not

There was a slight altercation
Down at the station
No hope today
There's blood on hands and steps
I'm holding my head
she's got some front
Did you hear what she said

And I'm so soz if I neglected you
I mean you no harm, mean you no harm
And I'm so soz if I disprespected you
I mean you no harm

Oh look around, it's true
Tonight I'll be chasing you

I took one draft of life
Paid only the market price
Now I'm estranged
And I'm so lonely now
But I'm not alone
Licking your boot
Maybe I'll work from home
Maybe not


A'Rebours

You sent for me
I was knock knock knocking on death's door
You ignore, adore, a rebours me
You leave me washed up begging for more
If you really cared for me
Ah you'd let me be
You'd set me free
But what you robbed me of is my...
Oh is my liberty

The curtain was calling
You were there blewn away and a rebours
In the mirror bawling
If you want it so much you are gonna have it all
Ah if you really cared for me
Christ knows you'd let me be
You'd set me free
I'm too polite to say...

I defy you all
You know twice as much as nothing at all
It's still nothing at all
I can defy us all
Tides are now turned and hammered it all
Hammered it all

Ah, no, ah no, ah no...

I've been running round this world too much, girl
Pretending not to see
What's drilling me, it's killing me

Oh no, I think I understand
What I misunderstood before
How your love gives me so much more
I am free again, I can see again..

But if I should fall
Would you vow today to pay tomorrow
The fucked off big debt I owe to sorrow...
Ah, oh... sorrow... sorrow...
Ah, oh... sorrow

Ah, no, ah no, ah no...


Back From The Dead

I heard it said
He had come back from the dead
And he was playing so fine
Scooping up
The soul of the wine
Have courage, my boy
When you look them in the eye
And try not to look too scummy
Cause you need their money now
You need their money

This ain't no happy place to be
There's nothing nice about me
There's nothing nice around me
I heard it said
He had come back from the dead
I keep it in reach
Keep it in the fridge
Courage, my dear
When you look them in the eye
Laugh if they try to be funny
Because you need their money now
You need their money


Beg, Steal or Borrow lyrics

Why should I wait until tomorrow
It's already been, I've already seen all the sorrow that's in store
I will beg or steal or borrow
Hold on tighter to all that sorrow tries to choir

Oh and if I change my tune
Maybe I won't be bound to do
And I won't be bound to do
And I won't be bound to

If you must beg, steal or borrow
To hold on tighter to all that sorrow tries to choir

And if I change my tune
They think she'll be fine by June
In a world where ice turns into stars
What a life on Mars

I can't wait until tomorrow
No I've already been, already seen all the sorrow that's in store

They'll tell you anything
(They'll tell you anything)
They'll tell you anything
(They'll tell you anything)
Just to get you in the car
(Get you in the car)
She'll tell them anything
(Anything)
You've told them everything
(Everything)
You've taken it too far
(Taken it too far)

What a life on Mars


Blackboy Lane

Ain't going back to Blackboy Lane
Ain't going back to Blackboy Lane
There must be some other way
Ain't going back to Blackboy Lane
Do you think you can help me
Can you make me a call
so deep, get nothing at all today
Are you dancing today
Must be some other
Must be some other way

There's a bullet there with my name
Will I ever find my way?

Just a fella I knew from sometime before
A house by the park with a cage on the door
You phone and say, are you dancing today?
Ain't going back to Blackboy Lane


Bollywood To Battersea

Well it's a long, long way, oooh
From Bollywood to Battersea
Bollywood to Battersea
Bollywood to Battersea
La la la la
I was a child of the pound and the crown
I lost myself in the haze
Of the new life that I found
On the silver screen

She was a child of the movies and the dollar
One fine day I was led astray
She took me by the collar
Said you must follow me

Well it's a long, long way, oooh
From Bollywood to Battersea
Bollywood to Battersea

It's a long, long way, oooh
From Bollywood to Battersea
Bollywood to Battersea
Bollywood to Battersea

Yeah I was a child of the suicide and the leisure
Oh one fine day I was led astray
To a burning collar
Said what's your pleasue

I was born in the four minute warning
My old man said as he shook his head
"Ohhh, fuck this...
I'm off down the boozer"


Conversation Diva

I tell you a story, but you won't listen
It's about a nightmare steeped in tradition
It's the story of a coked-up pansy
Who spent his nights in flights of fancy
Met two fellas over gin and mixes
They talked for a while and soon got the picture
One was a soaped-up soho mincer
The other was a pikey with a knowledge of scriptures

The conversation turned evil
They talked about people
Why did you do it to so many?


Delivery

By, oh by, the way
Of an explanation
Cast adrift
Off the shores of Shotter’s Nation
I had a look in,
Cave my skull in like a prick
Oh now
What use am I to anyone?
Forlorn, frozen,
Beneath the summer
Don’t sing along
Or you’ll get what I’ve got, oh

Here comes a delivery
Straight from the heart of the misery,
So, comes a delivery
Straight from the heart, to you.

Yeah you, now you, now you
You’ve finally left school
Oh what on earth
Do you intend to do?
See if you can,
Take the man, go round town
Where all your Skins, and Mod’s
You get together
Make pretend
It’s 1969 forever
Find a girl, have a drink,
Have a dance and play

The song that’ll deliver me
Straight from the harshness of misery
Cos this songs a delivery
Straight from the heart to you

Yes here comes a delivery
Straight from the heart of my misery
Oh that song that’ll deliver me
Straight from the heart, to you

So here comes a delivery
Straight from the heart of my misery
Here comes a delivery
Straight from the heart, to you



Do You Know Me

Do you know me? I don't think so!
Do you know me? I don't think so!
You romanticize the dark and gloomy past
Trying to escape from the underclass
You darkened the bright and beautiful day
You're breaking my heart in every way
And tell me everything is dandy and fine
You're no friend of mine

I took you in and you stole from me
But you still got everything I need
You're walking so tall, you're looking so mean
You're walking so tall, you're looking so mean
But you tell me everything is dandy and fine
You're no friend of mine

Do you know me? I don't think so!
Do you know me? I don't think so!
You romanticize the dark and gloomy past
Trying to escape from the upper class
You darkened the bright and beautiful day
You're fucking up my head in every way
And tell me everything's dandy and fine
You're no friend of mine


East Of Eden

I've been wandering east of Eden
Been lost, cold, lonesome as a sparrow in the rain
I found myself tumbling to a sinking feeling
When someone said I done gone wrong,
Couldn't feel no shame

I'll be leaving town on the very next train
You can wait for me little girl,
But I won't be coming this way again
And it ain't nobody's business if I do

There's a slow train rumblin' east of a place called Eden
Ah, the wind blowin' in proud as the trees upon the plain
And a stranger's voice talked to me
Of liberty and freedom
It seems like he done gone wrong again
And he wears the hat like shame

Well he tasted the fruit of another
And when his (???) when she discovered
Said she's gonna love him ten times more
Ain't nobody's business if she do

He said 'some men born rich, some men born poor,
But they're rich in other ways'
Into my heart his wisdom poured

It's no good crumblin, I'm making tracks to live
When I laid my love down in the light
You should've seen all the things my shadow did

The filth and the fury, the fear and the pain
It's all disappearing now
Faster than the smoke from this old train
And it ain't nobody's business if it do
(One more time)
Ain't nobody's business if it do


France

The ideal girl
in London from France
came over then left me
she left me entranced
now I have to get by
once again on my own
nothing but memories


So I remember your eyes
that unique shade of brown
while these blue eyes of mine they stay closed
I kissed you goodbye on the M109
I choked as I watched the bus go


I'm choking and smoking to your angelic soul
I'm choking and smoking myself into a hole
where the only way out is to sleep and to dream
and to cry out your name



Fuck Forever lyrics

It's one and the same
It's one and the same, oh

So what's the use between death and glory?
I can't tell between death and glory
Happy endings, no, they never bore me
Happy endings, they still don't bore me
But they, they have a way
A way to make you pay
And to make you toe the line
No I sever my ties
Because I'm so clever
But clever ain't wise

And fuck forever
If you don't mind
Oh, fuck forever
If you don't mind, don't mind, don't mind, I don't mind

What's the use between death and glory?
I can't tell between death and glory
New Labour and Tory
Pergatory and, oh, happy families

One and the same
One and the same
No, it's not the same
It's not suppose to be the same

Know about that way
The way they'll make you pay
And the way they make you toe the line
I sever my ties
Oh, you're so clever
You're so clever but you're not very nice

So fuck forever
If you don't mind
I'm stuck forever
I'm stuck in your mind, your mind, your mind, your mind

They have a special way
To make you feel like shit if to make you pay
And...
To make you toe the line
I Sever my ties
Oh and I'll never...
Sever the ties
And fuck forever
If you don't mind
See I'm stuck forever
I'm stuck in your mind, your mind, your mind, your mind

They'll never play this on the radio
No they'll never play this on the radio


Gang Of Gin

I get around to singing about
That gang of gin I'm in
Then you'll know most certainly
The kind of game I'm in
You sound around to swinging about
The gang of gin I'm rolling in, oh
Then you'll know
The kind of state I'm in
Who will buy my beautiful roses?
Who will buy my beautiful songs?
Who will buy my beautiful roses?
Who will buy my beautiful songs?

Oh in a nutshell
Yeah in a nutshell, oh
In a nutshell
In a nutshell

I get around to singing about
That gang of gin I'm in
Then you'll know
The kind of game I'm in
She was getting pally with a scally in the alley
Giving head for gear
She calls a spade a spade
Got slit from ear to ear

Who will buy my beautiful roses?
Who will buy my beautiful songs?
Who will buy my beautiful roses?
Who will buy my beautiful songs?

Well I showed no decorum
Span my heart out on the forum
Looked like a snapshot
Of the most tragic day

I'll tell you my story
The treachery it bores me
Carl and McGee both promised me
It would not happen this way
Carl is kept sedated
The frontman elevated
And McGee doing all he can to ruin my band
And keep me out the way

In this industry of fools
Musclemen and ghouls
If you're not a puppet or a muppet
Then you might as well call it a day-ayay

The truth here gets distorted
The wall scrapings get snorted
I'm welcome back if I give up crack
But you gave me my first pipe anyway

Can't show no decorum
Posts left on the forum
Was like a snapshot
Of the most tragic day


He Will Fall

We've been running round this world too much, girl
Trying not to see
But no freer then, we can see again
Now the old corruption packed its ransom sack
Buttoned his dirty Mac
He won't be coming back with us,
He won't be welcomed back

Oh you, you never show your face no more
Slam the door
Changes...

But if, oh... if you should fall
I vow today to pay tomorrow
The debts you owe to sorrow

We've been running round this world too much, girl
Trying not to see
But no freer then, we can see again


I Love You (But Your Green)

I was a troubled teen
Who put an advert in a magazine
To the annoyance of my imaginary lover
She doubted my integrity
And this is what she said to me

She said oh, you, you're green
You don't know what love means
Oh let me tell you
It tickles you pink, oh yeah
Everybody likes to hear you scream
Fire and damnation, lamentations
For the likes of you

When she goes, oh just let her go
If she says she's going
Just make sure she goes
Make sure she goes

I was a troubled teen
Untroubled only in my daydreams
To the annoyance of someone or others
They doubted my philosophy
And this is what they said to me

Oh, you, you'll soon be up where you belong
But it's blood from broken hearts
And write the words to every song
And there's a beautific smile
For the fawners and the servants
Oh but I, only I

I can see the serpent
Oh, you, you're green
You don't know what love means
Let me tell you
It tickles you pink, oh yeah
Everybody likes to hear you scream
Fire and damnation, lamentations
For the likes of you

When she goes, oh just let her go
If she says she's going
Just make sure she goes
Make sure she goes


In Love With A Feeling

They would if they could, but they can't
So if they talk like they could
Are you going to heed a word they say
All I'm trying to say was

I'm in love with a feeling
I know that it shows
Yes I'm in love with a feeling
And I don't care who knows

There's a very odd man over there
I don't mean to alarm you
He's by the stairs
No I don't mean to alarm you

He's swimming around all over town
...meaning, ....no feeling
Are you going to heed a word they say
No, all I try to say was

I'm in love with a feeling
I know that it shows
I'm in love with a feeling
And I don't care who knows

There's a very odd man over there
I don't mean to alarm you
Hes by the stairs
I dont meant to alarm you

I'm still waiting for you to show me fire
Oh how's your fever
Like an open book
Oh you can read me

Ohhh la la la la la

They would if they could, but they can't
So if they talk like they could
Are you going to listen to a word they say
All I'm trying to to say was

I'm in love with a feeling
I know that it shows
I'm in love with a feeling
And I don't care who knows

Because of his hob knob
Ohh la la, I think love was a dirty word
Love all the time
Only in a friendly way
Not too friendly, not too friendly


Killamangiro lyrics

Ohhh ohhh ohhhh
Why would you pay to see me in a cage?
And why would you pay to see me in a cage?
Some men call the stage

Listen now
I have gone
You will know
I was the only one that would have died
What was wrong in the eyes of the unwell and unwise

And I killed a man for his giro today
Wasn't very gay, I didn't mind
I was a money man anyway
Killed a man for his giro today

Why, would you pay
Why, would you pay
To see me in a cage
It's all across the stage

And know
When the night has come
You might say
I was not the only the one who would've died
What was wrong in the eyes of the cruel and unwise
And I killed a man for his giro today

On the off chance that you miss me
To the radio
I thought you might like to know you broke my heart
Can only sadden up or hedge your bets
Or take a chance and never get you again
All my ties, time and time
I keep on trying hard not to try too hard
When I forgive, I won't forget
To killing time, so I'm better now
I don't need it...
Anything that makes you, feel hate
Can do without hate
Now I believe in love

Now I have gone
Oh yeah, I will pay
For everything you've done
What was wrong
In the eyes of the unwell and unwise
And I killed a man for his giro today

Ohhh ohhh ohhhh


La Belle Et La Bete

I'll tell you a story but you won't listen
It's about a nightmare steeped in tradition
It's the story of a coked-up pansy
Who spent his nights in a flights of fancy

Met two fellas over gin and mixers
They talked for a while he soon got the picture
One was a souped up Soho mincer
The other was a pikey with another description

Then the conversation turned evil
Talked, talked and talked about people
Why did you do it to so many people?

Stumble left out of the boozer
... (?)
... another life (?)
With a half tilted smile looking alright

That girls out way ahead of the game
Way ahead of the game
Way ahead of the game

You've turned your back upon her
One too many times
Spent all her hard earned money
Getting high she sang

(Kate Moss)
Is she more beautiful, is she more beautiful
Is she more beautiful than me?
Is she more beautiful, is she more beautiful
Is she more beautiful than me?

She's La Belle Et La Bete at the ball
She's La Belle Et La Bete at the ball
She's La Belle Et La Bete at the ball
... (?)

You've turned your back upon her
One too many times
Spent all her hard earned money
Just getting high... she sang

(Kate Moss)
Is she more beautiful, is she more beautiful
Is she more beautiful than me?
Is she more beautiful, is she more beautiful
Is she more beautiful than me?

Is she more beautiful, is she more beautiful
Is she more beautiful than she?

I'll tell you a story but you won't listen
It's about a nightmare steeped in tradition
It's the story of a coked-up pansy
Who spent his nights in a flights of fancy

Met two fellas over gin and mixers
They talked for a while he soon got the picture
One was a souped up Soho mincer
The other was a pikey with another description

Then the conversation turned evil
Talked and talked and talked about people
Why did you do it to so many people?

That girls out way ahead of the game
Way ahead of the game
Way ahead of the game
Way ahead of the game
Way ahead of the game

You've turned your back upon her
One too many times
Spent all her hard earned money
Just getting high... she sang

(Kate Moss)
Is she more beautiful, is she more beautiful
Is she more beautiful than me?
Is she more beautiful, is she more beautiful
Is she more beautiful than me?


Loyalty Song

Ah, tell me
What did I dream?
Cause nothing's as it seems
On the way back down, for me

What did I dream?
Cause nothing's as it seems
On the way back round, for me

Nothing's gonna keep me from my
What did I dream?
No one's gonna keep me from my
What did I dream?

We're on the one road
Maybe the wrong road
It's the road to fuck knows where
We're on the one road
Maybe the wrong road
But we're together now so I don't care

Nothing's gonna keep me from my
What did I dream?
No one's gonna keep me from my
No one'll fucking keep me from my
No one's gonna keep me from my
What did I dream?

And if I confide in you today
I know you don't believe a single word I say
I found solace in the flood
And everybody knew that I would
Cause I'm alright
And there's a slight crack in my chimney

So tell me
What did I dream? [x3]
Nothing's as it seems
On the way back round for me

What did I? [x3]
What did I dream?


Merry Go Round

You have always thinking of her
You're in love and you don't know what to say
But I saw her at the fair and she feels the same way
She was married by the merry-go-round

The merry-go-round
How merrily we go round
How merrily we go round
The merry-go-round

He was the first one of the day
He was the last one of the night
Oh hold me tight, hold me tight
They said you were wrongened
But I can see in your eyes
How you are gentle and wise
And you had the good stuff
Oh there's a parade of girls outside
That boy's so shy
Why'd you punch out his lights?

He was the first one of the day
He was the last one of the night
Oh mop it up, she'll be alright
Mop it up, she'll be alright
There's a parade on the hall outside
Come on and feel the air outside


My Darling Clementine

My darling Clementine, you know I love you
My darling Clementine, you know I do
I bless and curse the day I found you
I wonder why
I get lost in the wonderland around you

But you're always welcome here
I keep love handy, I keep it near
And I take note of all of your witty reposts
And I follow with the famous quotes and
and when i say I care, i think i really mean it

She's got the money, and she
She's moving on
She's thinking on
She's thinking on all the good advice
Because there's always good advice

The man with the golden arm rarely deals a joker
But he kept two aside, just for you
He burnt your fingers in the fire
Oww


New Love Grows On Trees

Are you still talking to
All of those dead film stars
Like you used to
And are you still thinking of
All of those pretty rhymes
And perfect crimes
Like you used to love
And if you're still alive
When you're twenty five
Shall I kill you like you asked me to
If you're still alive
When you're twenty five
Shall I kill you I know you told me to
But I really don't want to

I remember every single thing you said to me
Until I’m up on Calvary
Ah you said, you said new love grows on trees
New love grows on trees
New love grows on... new love grows on trees

Are you still shaking out
All the dead wood from your bed love
Well times don't change and you're still thinking of
All of those pretty rhymes full of divine
Oh no, you really don't have to
If you're still alive
When you're twenty five
Shall I kill you
Oh I know you asked me to
But I really don't want to

I remember every single thing you said to me

You said new love grows on trees
New love grows on trees
New love grows on, new love grows on trees


Pentonville

It's rough
It's wicked and rough
It's hard
Pentonville rough
It's tough
It's wicked and rough
It's hard
Pentonville rough

Now in Pentonville there's all type of nation
Russian, Columbian and Jamaican
Latvian, Croatian and a Polishman
Indian, Chinaman down from Vietnam
And from the Carribbean an Jamaican
Poorly paid people formed the Irish gang
And the Scottish and the Englishman

They're rough
Pentonville tough
It's hard
Wicked and rough
Yeah rough
Pentonville tough
It's hard
Wicked and rough now

Everyday, it's the same
People can't get better
No they can't get tamed
And black up the heads of the sick and the lame
Some men jump out of their brains
Cause they can't take the pressure
Or the shame or the pain
When they see the life, it go down the drain
In Pentonville it's a different ball game

It's rough
Pentonville tough
It's hard
Wicked and rough
Yeah rough
Pentonville tough
It's hard
Wicked and rough now

Lying on my lumpy mattress
Lying on my back
Staring up at the ceiling
Counting all the cracks
And what's happening behind me
Look over my shoulder back
Bill Cole got my breakfast pack
He won't give it back
Ooooooooooh

It's rough
Pentonville tough
It's hard
Wicked and rough
Yeah rough
Pentonville tough
It's hard
Wicked and rough now

Everyday, it's the same
People can't get better
No they can't get tamed
And black up the heads of the sick and the lame
Some men jump out of their brains
Cause they can't take the pressure
Or the shame or the pain
When they see the life, it go down the drain
In Pentonville it's a different ball game

So A wing, B wing, C wing and G Wing
Come help us sing
A wing, B wing, C wing and G Wing
Come help us sing

Because it's rough
Pentonville tough
It's hard
Wicked and rough
Yeah tough
Pentonville rough
It's hard
Wicked and rough


Pipedown

Oh Paddy put the pipe down
If you got the right sound
If it's not the right sound
Then neither am I, oh my oh my

Do your sums
Work out a fairer way
If it comes undone
Just paper over the cracks
And there ain't no turning back

Oh on The Sun
They make you out to be a tearaway
Comes undone
Ah I just spoke to Matt
Pat, they want the money back

Ah put the pipe down
If you got the right sound
If it's not the right sound
Oh my Oh my Oh my

Do your sums
Work out a fairer way
Can you play no fun
Oh what you think of that
Cause they wanted but

You better pipe down
You got the right sound
Put the pipe down
Oh my Oh my Oh my

Na, na-na, na-na

Oh Paddy put the pipe down
If you got the right sound
If it's not the right sound
Neither am I, oh my oh my

Oh Paddy put the pipe down
If you got the right sound
If it's the right sound
Oh my Oh my Oh my


Pipey Magraw

One's too many and a hundred ain't enough
For Corna baby give me more oh that stuff
Oh baby, oh baby
We had a real good time
Pipey Magraw
Pipey Magraw
Pipey Magraw
Pipey Magraw
I run a monkey casino
I gotta head full of beano
I hear the voices of evil
Telling me to do murder
I got my false feel
I got my false friends
I got my rum deal
I got my soul train
It's coming round the bend

And believe me
You know you wouldn't wanna be me
Nor would you want the shame or the strain of my name
But if I can live my life all over again
There ain't one single thing I'd change

Bilo, they call me Billy Bilo
I'm like a fish on a lilo, I'm all out of place
It's written all over my face

Bilo, some call me blood clot wierdo
Oh they fuck with your mindo
When you do it skag and bone

Bilo, they call me Billy Bilo
Oh they fuck with your mindo
When you do it skag and bone

Pipey Magraw
That's Pipey Magraw
Pipey Magraw
That's Pipey Magraw

One's too many and a hundred ain't enough
For Corna baby give me more oh that stuff
Oh baby, oh baby
We had a real good time
Just me and you


Stix And Stones

Now here's a tale
Tale I will tell
Blood lust after no sweet love
And a many, many things I do so well
Oh you know that's the end
That's the end so far away down

They said that I was as good as dead
And there was hope, but not for us together
My friend, my only friend

Oh well you know that that's the end
And that's the end so far away down

Skip... fame on the run
Don't look back into the motherfucking sun, no
Oh well you know that that's the end
And that's the end so far away down

Sticks and stones
May break my bones
Oh but your words
They really kill me

Sticks and stones
May break my bones
Sticks and stones may break my bones
Oh but your words they really kill me

And there you know that's the end
But there can never be and end


The Man Who Came To Stay

There's a man who came to stay
The boy he replaced, disappeared without a trace...
Stole all my songs and my style away
No-one would say what they wanted to say
So he was king for a day..
If you sail into the sun
Beware the eyes of green
And if the whole room tells you 'you are the one'
I defy you not to believe them, my son...

There's a man who came to stay...
Never showing on time
Out of his mind, diddly doo doo dine
Every single gig I play
Something's not right inside
Paranoia and pride, nowhere to hide...

If you sail into the sun, la la la la lala
Beware the eyes of green
And if the whole world tells you 'you are the one'
You must be hearing those voices again my son

If you sail into the sun
Please beware the eyes of green
And if it's all too much for you my son
Well, I'm here waiting where we began


What Katy Did Next lyrics

There's a lesson I have learnt
If you play with fire you will get burnt
Hell hath no fury
Like woman scorned
I'll tell you my story
Make you wish you never, wish you...
Wish you never never, wish you never been born

I may never learn, never know
I may live and learn but never know
I may crash and burn, oh no
I may take my turn

If you love her, then tell her you love her and
You could be kissing her soon
If you need her, oh, tell her you need her and
You won't be missing her soon
Oh, but for a love to be true
It must come from her too

It's a lesson hard learned
If you play with fire you will get burnt
Hell hath no fury
... (?)

Oh, I may never learn, you never know
I may live and learn, never know
I may crash and burn, oh no
I may take my turn

If you love her, then tell her you love her and
You could be kissing her soon
If you need her, oh, tell her you need her and
You won't be missing her soon
