the lonely hearts of england - skint & demoralised lyrics
approval and affection, well they force you to perform
when you look at your reflection, does it make you feel warm?
or does something hold you back, until someone holds you tight
someone for a life-time, or maybe just a night
and i’ve tried and failed many times, i’ve rarely won
but i am a chatty b-gg-r, yes i am my mother’s son
so i’ll try and find my finest shirt and show ‘em what i can
i’ve got various ambitions as an independent man
does it make you start to question, is it better left unsaid?
with the power of suggestion there’s a stranger in your bed
does it meet your expectation, does it ever guarantee?
will the lonely hearts of england stand and raise a gl-ss with me
with the girls all wearing dresses, and the fellas wearing shoes
everything excessive, and everything to lose
when the bells ring out for two o’clock, it’s the measure of your night
you’ll either end-up frisky or you’ll end-up in a fight
are you standing with your sweetheart, are you looking for a match?
do you tell yourself in silence that you really are a catch?
when you step outside for a cigarette and you try to make her laugh
and then treat her to the doubles with the last of the overdraft
just get another round in, we’re wasting precious time
no celibates, we’re celebrating living in our prime
do you often sit and wonder, what happiness might be?
will the lonely hearts of england stand and raise a gl-ss with me
old father time with his stacks of coins is propping-up the bar
he’s seen all kinds of faces, but he’s never been that far
he’s fragile and he’s bony, with skin as thin as silk
but he’d drink a pint of whiskey like you’d drink a pint of milk
when your song came on the jukebox, and you had to stand and jive
and it’s nine o’clock on a friday night when you really come alive
just lose your inhibitions, and forget about the truth
‘cause the one thing that you can’t get back is the freedom of your youth
and by twelve o’clock tomorrow, i doubt that we’ll recall
when the truth comes out and you start to shout and there’s nothing past these walls
and they’re snoozing by the telly if they choose to disagree
will the lonely hearts of england stand and raise a gl-ss with me
have you spotted someone s-xy, are you trying to catch their eye?
it’s a bl–dy expensive taxi if you stand around all shy
with a little introduction and a little bit of charm
you’ve a belly filled with b-tterflies and someone on your arm
i’ve told you many times before and i’ll tell you many more
you’re my greatest friend in the bl–dy world, and that is something sure
and i know i’ve never met you, but you’re such a bl–dy star
so let’s gather our possessions and we’ll find another bar
if it’s sunny or it’s snowing, it’s a ritual for life
if you’re looking for a girlfriend or you’re hiding from your wife
if you’re drinking on your pension, if you’re young and fancy free
will the lonely hearts of england stand and raise a gl-ss with me
will the lonely hearts of england stand and raise a gl-ss with me
will the lonely hearts of england stand and raise a gl-ss with me
