- Cherubs
I see cherubs swarm around the bed and swooping down to kiss your head.
Only when you're wrecked do you agree with all my plans for you and me.
The walls breathe we're locked tight
It's a lovely end to an ugly night.
I think I could burst but I'm sure it'll keep.
The strobe in my head keeps me from sleep.
- dream sequence
give me your gibberish tonight and talk to me with your eyes shut
make me giggle in your sleep, and I can dream that you're a slut
and when I wake up stiff, please just feel free to use me
then go to work and let me wonder what it was that made you choose me
and now i love you more than that, and now i love you more than this
so just stay over on your side, and go to sleep and dream of piss
tomorrow you can tell me all the things you've done with boys
- Girls Of Summer
We're sitting fruity alchopops with pink glasses with ice and watching the girls of summer
With there bare legs and trains and there white strap link through yesterdays top beneath today's cologne
Across there peeling shoulders on there way to the bar
Later I put my tape in the bath in attempt to shave, well almost cut and ending up slashing my cheek and nickin' my lip
And spraying on some poof juice and go to the park with my economy cider
I don't think I'll need a jacket
- Here We Go
How am I supposed to walk you home when youre at least fifty feet ahead?
Cause you walked off in a huff and Im that pissed I cant even remember what it was I said.
And I dont doubt you wouldnt touch him now, but lets face it, you always use to go for that kind.
And if you ever really wanted two men at once, all Im saying is I better be one of the guys youve got in mind.
Here we go same time, same place.
I dont like the way you kiss his face.
- New Birds
You just have to be sure you're doing the right thing.
Imean it's very easy to forget - she's just sitting there in the pubwith her new friends and her new life and her new hair, and it's beenfive years but you'd know just to look at her.
I wasn't evensure it were her at first, I was ready to walk away but she smiled andcalled me over and we said hello for a bit. when we back to our tableswe were trying not to look over at eac
Er and told our firneds tostop staring. I didn't see her for the rest of the night, but byclosing time the beer's kicked in so I go up and speak to her and weend up talking about our new home
R new jobs and our new birds.
Shesays she's been going out with him now for about two and a half years,but they don't live together so he'd never find out. and you thinkabout chasing her about school when you were wee and
- Not Quite a Yes
Why could I not speak? You're not so unique. My eyes stayed on the floor.
I make a little suggestion, before I pop the question. But I was far too out my face.
I was out my face.
"It's the first time in ages I've actually had the guts to ask, but I'm feeling particularly confident tonight, if you know what I mean. But that's the thing - You don't know what I mean. The reason I fancy you in the first place is is the same reason we won't get on, you're just not into it. I mean, you're cute and you're innocent and you're nice and all that, but you barely even drink."
No meeting was I granted. But now the seed's been planted. And now you're in the know.
Too steaming too impress. Not a know, not quite a yes.
- Screaming In The Trees
We met on mutual ground
But you avoided my gaze
Until I lost your face
In the next morning’s haze.
You’re shoes could’ve woken up the whole street.
They drowned out the birds screaming in the trees.
We sat down on the stone stairs
- Stink
Burn these sheets that we've just fucked in
My weekend beacon, I've been sucked in
Just one more time and then you'll get tucked in
I think you might still be my best
Come with me 'cause I want a thrill now
It's okay 'cause i'm on the Pill now
- The Clearing
Oh, she always used to be the same. She'd be loose with a straight dark facial frame. And now the things that used to turn me off, I find endearing. And they laugh behind the trees as she lies naked in the clearing. I adore her, but I ignore her. See, I know it won't last as I reflect upon my past. But on severance she made no difference. There's things I won't let her know, as we're perfecting our show. I want to own her - I think I'll phone her. I can't explore her if I ignore her. And now the things that used to turn me off, I find endearing. And they laugh behind the trees as she lies naked in the clearing. But she won't beckon - is what I reckon. She may adore me, but she'll ignore me. Put on a show there, we're getting nowhere. She helps my snoring, so it never get's boring. And she always used to be the same. She'd be loose with with a straight dark facial frame. And now the things that used to turn me off, I find endearing. And they laugh behind the trees as she lies naked in the clearing.
- The First Big Weekend
So that was the first big weekend of the summer...
Starts thursday as usual with the canteen quiz and again no-one wins the big cash prize.
Later I do my sound bloke routine by approaching gina's new boyfriend to say that he shouldn't feel that there's any animosity between us and then I even go and make peace with her shouldn't hav
Hered.
Then on friday night we went through to the arches...
There was only one car going so some of us had to get the train. we got through quite late. then we went to a pub to take the gear.
- The Shy Retirer
another bloated disco, another sniff of romance I'll forget
we promised to ourselves before we came out we'd do something we regret
these people are your friends
this cunted circus never ends
I won't remember anything you say
I lost my social skills a while ago but now I feel them coming back
my eyes were rolling when we met and now they are preparing for attack
