Some Of Our Lyrics

 

Outlook by Josh Oxley

 

A reason for what can’t be known

I guess you’re on your own

I looked but never wondered, oh dear

And now my guilt is shown

A prophecy for simple minds

A bible for our truth

Singing out the Hare Krishna

Amidst violent youth

 

Oh, oh, oh get screwed, get laid

Do your job, get paid

It’s simple but it’s still outlook on life

On life

 

A melody constructed

A simple flowing tune

It starts and then it ends but you know

What you gonna do?

Not often treated me unkind

Though maybe once or twice

But there’s adventure in between

Our own ‘Miami Vice’

 

Oh, oh, oh come on – what ya say?

We’ll each go our own way

It’s simple but it’s still outlook on life

On life

 

A prophecy for simple minds

A bible for our truth

Singing out the Hare Krishna

Amidst violent youth

 

Oh, oh, oh come on follow me

Now this you need to see

It’s simple but it’s still outlook on life

On life

 

 

Drunken Ballad For The Broken-Hearted by James Spacie

 

Verse 1

Pushing me down

Pushing me around

I’m a northern boy

Forgotten by the rest of the world

Common as muck

My girl aint as such

Oh how I love her so

With her long brown hair

Her big brown eyes, piercing stare

 

Cos I’m a northern boy

In the end

 

Chorus.

Lean… on me

Take me out to the willow tree

Where once, we would see it

But if you can’t then believe it baby

Cos were, not that different,

But why should that be a shame?

So use it, and fill it,

I’d keep you out of the rain.

 

Verse 2

She’s fucked off with him

Cos he’s older than me

I’ve got everything he has

Maybe more…

But who am I to judge

What you do, who I am

That’s not me

 

I am what I am

You are what you are

Don’t change

Never change

Don’t be angry…

 

I need your love…

 

Verse 3

But now he’s gone she’s open for love,

I hope it’s me that will give

Give it all for you,

Open ended heart

Unwritten tales of what id do for you,

A story for the future

If you say yes

If you’ll be mine,

Who knows?

Just the one line.

 

Verse 4

So ill watch the sun go down

Close my eyes to your heart

Forever lost

Or maybe?

One big pull to pull you through

To the open

Untie this knot

And show those eyes

Open them wider, wide as ever

It stops raining eventually…

 

 

Face Flat by Alex Edmond

 

Open doors and windows

And let the clean air in

Start over and again

Back where I begin

 

Cos I want to enlighten

The things that aren’t so clear

Cloudy skies must disappear

and not come around here

 

You think no point in that

You think no point in anything

You cant see the fact

For you I’d fall face flat

 

Tripping over backwards

Backwards over you

If opposite poles can attract

Then why cant me and you

 

Sittin round and waiting

And you’re not even here

Wasting my time searching

For things that aren’t quite near

 

My images of you

Inbedded in my head

You are my sweetheart

I never will be led

 

 

 

Lines And Cones by Alex Edmond

 

Place your bets everyone

And away we go

He’s the father of a son

He’d rather not know

And the feelings the same

In these places again

But how the fuck did we wind up here?

 

Not knowing nowt new and not

Learning owt old

I'd rather be in the sun than

Out in the cold

Oh the tractions are turning

And the visions are blurring

What have they done with the facts?

 

But apparently this place is where its at

And the hang around with youngers seem to have a laff

But they know that this feelin they have will not last

They’re all be coming round soon and its comin fast

 

So get out of this while you still can

Get out they did , they fuckin ran

They all did one into the safety zones

Stop police lines and stop police cones

 

The positive reactions and

The negative flaws

Everyone thinks hes cool

'Cos he's smoking draw

Oh the sheep are flocking

And their time is tocking

But what has he got in his life that’s worth?

 

The coppers are chasing him

Between the streets

He's gonna get locked up for

At least two nites

Oh hes in the cop van

And he wishes he ant ran

But how the fuck did he wind up there?

 

But according to them this is a good time at

He’s nineteen, she’s fifteen we’ll leave it at that

She says that she loves him, but she loves his car

He says that its easy, fuck going to far

 

So get out of this while you still can

Get out they did, they fuckin ran

They all did one into the safety zones

Stop police lines and stop police cones
