Lyrics

[00:00.00] 作曲 : Falconer, Webster
[00:15.29] Thinking of poems of poverty
[00:17.79]
[00:19.23] Sitting with a tight clenched wrist,
[00:20.35] thinking how to gain authority
[00:22.42]
[00:23.04] Oh what a soft touch of a boy
[00:25.79]
[00:27.10] He'd wander with pride to sell
[00:28.72] and keep visions to his self
[00:30.82] Visions to his self
[00:33.68]
[00:34.19] We'd talk of treasures, and over-rated games
[00:37.92] We'd steal the milk bottles,
[00:39.54] sneaking through the back round Jimmy's way.
[00:42.29] What we loved most of all,
[00:44.17] was sitting round the shop,
[00:46.04] while this poor boy was sitting all alone,
[00:49.29] Sitting all alone
[00:51.47]
[00:54.09] Pondering times of sanctuary
[00:55.97]
[00:57.04] He was sitting taking his piano lessons,
[00:59.41] we were on half an E
[01:01.66] Invested life in medicine,
[01:04.09] had so much shit going on.
[01:06.21] Convinced he'd never win.
[01:09.61] Convinced he was a sin.
[01:12.49]
[01:13.07] We'd speak of women and cheaper carryouts
[01:16.88] We'd turn up to all the festivals,
[01:19.01] trying to bring down the touts,
[01:21.13] What we love the most of all was sittin' at the shop,
[01:24.92] while this poor boy was sittin' all alone,
[01:28.11] Sittin' all alone
[01:29.54] We'd talk of treasures and overrated games
[01:33.66] We'd steal the milk bottles,
[01:34.91] sneaking through the back round Jimmy's way.
[01:37.62] What we loved most of all,
[01:39.80] was hanging at the shop,
[01:41.43] while this poor boy was sitting all alone,
[01:43.93] He couldn't find none of his own kind,
[01:47.56]
[01:48.18] he didn't have none of his own kind
[01:51.31]
[01:52.30] You should take interest in his mind,
[01:54.92] not spend all of his time
[01:57.18] wastin all his money and his time
[02:00.48]
[02:01.17] Thinking of poems of poverty
[02:03.67]
[02:05.17] Sitting with a tight clenched wrist,
[02:06.63] thinking how to gain authority
[02:09.18] Oh what a soft touch of a don
[02:11.81]
[02:13.18] He'd wander with pride to sell
[02:14.80] and keep visions to his self
[02:16.87] Visions to his self
[02:19.65]
[02:20.34] We'd talk of treasures, and over-rated games
[02:24.51] We'd steal the milk bottles,
[02:25.77] sneaking through the back round Jimmy's way.
[02:28.26] What we loved most of all,
[02:29.95] was hanging round the shop,
[02:31.95] while this young boy was sitting all alone,
[02:35.24] Sitting all alone
[02:36.75] We'd talk of treasures, and over-rated games
[02:40.93] We'd steal the milk bottles,
[02:42.05] sneaking through the back round Jimmy's way.
[02:44.79] What we loved most of all was hanging 'round the shop
[02:48.67] What we loved most of all was waiting 'round the shop
[02:52.73] What we loved most of all was sitting 'round the shop
[02:56.10]
[02:57.48] What we loved most of all was hanging 'round the shop
[03:01.29] while this poor boy was sitting all alone
[03:04.53]
[03:05.22]
