- alcoholics unanimous
Slept on my face, and woke up confused
A bit concerned about what I've been up to
There's so many people I might have upset
I apologise to them all with the same pretext
Bring me tea!
Bring me coffee!
- Awkward Breakfast
An afternoon wasted
Making myself look sharp
To stand around in
The smoke and the dark
It's amazing how quick
It all comes back to me
Kissing girls with
Muscle memory
- Bad Weekend
Haven't read the NME in so long
Don't know what genre we belong
Haven't read the NME in so long
Don't know what genre we belong
Popular culture no longer applies to me
Popular culture no longer applies to me
Popular culture no longer applies to me
Popular culture no longer applies to me
- DC Comics And Chocolate Milkshake
Life is especially hard
When no one trusts you with a credit card
I love the taste of cereal
I have it for almost every meal
Five people to a tea bag?
My life never really got that bad
Not while we still had...
- Direct Hit
You went out in a rush
And can't tell if it shows
She's looking over a lot
And he's still in his work clothes
You can't talk to members of the opposite sex
He starts to talk, they start to look perplexed
So with his eyes on the prize, and just a glance at her breasts
- Formed A Band
Formed a band
We formed a band
Look at us
We formed a band
(x4)
Honey pie, I don't know when it started
Just stop buying your albums from the supermarkets
They only sell things that have charted
- Good Morning Berlin
Warschauer Straße and the rising sun
A pocket full of change and three sticks of gum
The streets 'round here, they all look the same
Spätkauf, Kebab-Shop, again and again
Kannst du bitte
Die Luft aus dem Glas lassen?
Can you please
Take the air out of my glass?
- Good Weekend
First time I saw her
I wanted to do more than just hold her
I wanted to bend her and fold her
So I lent over and I told her
Got myself a brand new girlfriend
Got myself a brand new girlfriend
Phones ringing all weekend
Got myself a brand new girlfriend
- Her Majesty
Her Majesty's a pretty nice girl
But she doesn't have a lot to say
Her Majesty's a pretty nice girl
But she changes from day to day
I want to tell her that I love her a lot
But I gotta get a bellyful of wine
Her Majesty's a pretty nice girl
- I Hope You're Very Happy Together
I know that it's a cliché
But I swear, I'm not lying
But the day you left
I dreamed I was flying
A record collection split in two
And you took all the bad songs
Away with you
Hopefully
- I Will Survive
I can get by without electricity
So you don't need to lend me money
I'm out most of the day
And it's not long before I get paid
If you're cold and hungry
Put on a coat
I've bread, it's stale
You can't tell if it's toast
- Ice Hockey
Don't cry, I finally escaped Just pretend that I'm going into space
My time on earth was a lot of fun The adventure has only just started My time on earth was a lot of fun The adventure has only just started
Everybody is forgiven I'm heading of on a intergalactic mission Help yourself to what you find In the possessions that I leave behind
I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to say goodbye I'm sorry there's some loose ends that still needs tying I'm going out, way past the moon Whatever time it is, I'm sure I left too soon
Goodbye, don't cry, goodbye, don't cry Goodbye, don't cry, goodbye, don't cry Goodbye, don't cry, goodbye, don't cry
(My time on earth was a lot of fun) Goodbye, don't cry (The adventure has only just started)
(My time on earth was a lot of fun) Goodbye, don't cry (The adventure has only just started)
(My time on earth was a lot of fun) Goodbye, don't cry (The adventure has only just started)
- Ignorance Is Bliss
Ignorance is bliss
I wanna see it written on cigarette packets
Instead of "warning, these will kill you"
I'm happier since I stopped reading the paper
I'm happier since I stopped watching the news
Ignorance is bliss
- Late Sunday Evening
Late, Sunday evening
I only just feel like eating
Am I feeling unwell
For what I've done, or drunk
Or for someone might tell
I'm gonna find it hard to sleep tonight
I'm gonna find it hard to sleep
- Lost Weekend
Stumbling from one club to another
My friends and I all lost each other
I didn't want this weekend to be over
Standing at the cashpoint trying to look sober
That's when I saw, that's when I saw you
Stood in the middle of the very long que
It was a lost weekend
- Maternity Ward
Sitting in my bedroom
With my keyboard guitar
Writing pretty songs about renaming the stars
I don't like to stay in
I'm easily bored
I go and tell the newborns in the maternity ward:
Everything's gonna be alright
- Moving to L.A.
There's not much glamour 'bout the English weather
There's nothing left keeping us together
Sunshine on a rainy day
Makes me want to move away
I think I've got it sorted
I'm gonna get myself deported
I'm considering a move to L.A.
- My Little Brother
My little brother just discovered Rock & Roll
My little brother just discovered Rock & Roll
My little brother just discovered Rock & Roll
There's a noise in his head, and he's out of control
And yes it frustrates
Let's let him make his own mistakes
See him on the dance floor go now
Boy those moves I just don't know how
- Mysterious Bruises
I've had one ZirtecЃC two Advil
With the drink that made me feel invincible
I don't know how I managed to do this
But I woke up this morning covered in bruises
I only dance to songs I like
So I was sat down most the night
I don't know how I managed to do this
I woke up this morning covered in bruises
- People In Love
People in love, lie around and get fat
I didn't want us to end up like that
This isn't the first time
You've fallen apart
Now you're indulging in just playing a part
The more it happens, the easier it gets
You can learn to enjoy this type of upset
- Pump Up the Volume
We'd taken our clothes off, in the wrong order
And you're leavin' your shoes to make you look taller
And I can't say I'm not enjoying the kissing
But I've a sneaking suspicion that you're not really listening
I know I shouldn't
Is it so wrong
To break from your kiss
- Really Bad Weekend
We just kissed and that's about it
I fell asleep, she had to do without it
That's the way it sometimes goes
Under the covers but in yesterday's clothes
Whilst you were asleep
Me, pins and needles
You were asleep
- Rusted Guns Of Milan
I know I can, I know I can
I know I can, I know I can
I know I can, I know I can
I know I can, I know I can
It doesn't mean that I don't love you
One more try with me above you
It's got nothing to do with anything I had to drink
It's more to do with the way I think
- Schwarzfahrer
I
Hate my brain
It always makes me
Come back to the house again
If the oven's on
I'll let the house burn down
Because if you call
I'm always gonna come around
- Stand Down
I thought my resolve
Was too hard to be broken
It's easy to pretend
That you were just joking
There's no need to see plans
Through to fruition
Especially if
You've guessed the conclusion
- Summer Job
Double shifts and early starts
I spent the morning hiding in the carpark
Oh yeah, I'm so laissez-faire
Sometimes I'm not even there
If you want me sober and straight
I'm afraid I'm gonna be a little bit late
Get another job
- These Animal Menswear
Kevin came home from school today with a, chipped tooth and blood on his shirt.
Kevin came home from school today with a, fat lip and a mouth full of dirt.
Girls don't like him, boys wanna fight him.
Oh. No.
Boys don't like him, girls wanna fight him.
Oh. No.
- Too Clever
I'm uptight
I can't relax
I'm always thinking
Of an answer back
It's hard
To have fun
When there's always something
On the tip of your tongue
- Unprofessional Wrestling
It started off as just kissing
Now it's a lot of sweat and a mess of limbs
We didn't wait for a bell to ring
We're unprofessional wrestling
Watch out for stray mattress springs
That carpet burn its going to sting
I can wear a leotard if that's your thing
- Weird Science
Can you get me a drink if you go to the bar?
(wooooh bada bada bada)
Actually, make it five, I'm drinking these fast
(wooooh bada bada bada)
I gave up smoking years back
(wooooh bada bada bada)
So how am I on my sixth pack?
(wooooh bada bada bada)
- What A Rush
I wish I hadn't taken off all my clothes
Now I need them, where did they go
Parents, lock up your daughters
His rebellious henchman is giving the orders
I can't believe those things we did
Especially now I'm sober...ish
Parents, lock up your daughters
- Your Enemies Are My Enemies Too
You come from work
And dish the dirt
It's hard to bite your tongue and smoke at the same time
So we stand on the balcony and clear your mind
I don't need logic or to be even-handed
I know on whose side my opinions landed
When they release the Blu-ray special edition of your life
All the deleted scenes will prove you right
