Yesterday I touched your face
I kissed your lips
But you were just a photograph…of you
Now you’ve got it bad
You’ve never been so sad
It’s not like you’re the first to feel pain
Don’t it make you mad
The best friend you ever had
Is lying on her own tonight
Yes it’s come to that
So she’s gone to Hull
Where freedom is so dull
And everyone’s on drugs
Tonight there’s no such thing as life
England is a bore and I don’t love any more
Tonight let’s not fight again
Everything has died and Lennon’s love lies…tonight
Now you’re on the floor
And all that you adore
Has left and left you stranded
Lost without an oar
Please don’t say you love me
Unless you want to fuck me
I hope to die
The sky is falling down
The Tyne has run aground
And love just left town

Joe
Just remember
That only in your dreams you’re running scared
And Joe
We’re listening
To all the nightmares of your new world
Joe
Where are you?
I’ve searched from Gloucester to Cockfosters
Think we all need some bright young spark
But all that glistens here are all the old ghosts
Night comes to all
Think I might fall
Upon this Damocles sword
So let’s fall
All praise this frame
If we all play this game
We’ll always lose it all
Hit
Or miss
And after all it’s only who you might kiss
Spend
Pennies from heaven
Gone like raindrops on the main road
Gay barrow boys
All make some noise
Down Holloway Road
As they go
Songs for the soul
Never grow old
Roll along prairie moon
Roll along
These Tin Pan Alley dreams
And all those crazy schemes
Are nothing more than mealy millionaires
This train from Liverpool
Took all your friends from you
You fill your pockets with your prose

Man of joy
Dirty boy
Now he runs to catch a bus
Or be a doctor
Very well
How's yourself
If you're trapped
Then I'll help you out
So ask me nicely
Grace
Your beautiful face
All covered in grease
And grinning like madness in the sun
We're lifted upon
An elegant swan
Lasers and sunbeams fill the void
Hand in hand
Gland in gland
We rise like an ocean on the land
We kiss the clover
Damn it all
Man will fall
And love's a blister on my hand
And we're in trouble
Grace
She's spinning in space
She's lost without trace
She walks like the thunder for the storms
Explode and transform
It's raining again
Raining confetti in the pond

Coronation Street

The grains of glitter shine
Among the crazy nights
I see it in your eyes
It’s not the same for me
The cornershop routine
Destroys the lonely teen
You came to me tonight
To brighten up your life
On Coronation street
The cobbles under feet
The window cleaner’s eyes are calling me
I go to sleep (sleep with me now, give me all your love)
I get no sleep on Coronation Street
I thank you for your tears
Here’s to the frozen years
From 16 through to death
We haven’t found it yet
I know you want to run
And I know where you belong
Here’s where that you should be
You’re not alone
You go to sleep (sleep with me now, give me all your love)
You get no sleep on Coronation Street
I walk with you (you will turn into to Ricky Tomlinson)
I watch TV on Coronation Street
Until the glorious day
We’ll have to make our way
For bread and milk and tea
To Coronation street
Tonight well we can dream
Of places we could be
And if they’re all the same
We’ll run away
I go to sleep (sleep with me now, give me all your love)
I get no sleep on Coronation Street
I walk with you (you will turn into Ricky Tomlinson)
I shit, I eat on Coronation Street
