jubilee road - tom odell lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
it’s a late friday night
the street lamps are shining
up in my bedroom
there’s a mighty big fight
between the thunder and lightning
wonder who will lose
i see a party balloon
and i ain’t been invited
hey, look at that moon
there ain’t nothing like it
all grey and gold
down on jubilee road

[verse 2]
can see mr. bouvier
in his two-bedroom bas-m-nt
in his purple dungarees
he’s grumpy and he’s grey
always sweeping off the pavement
cigarettes and leaves
his kid’s up in china
his wife’s up in heaven
always i wave
’cause he’s got this expression
that he’s so alone
down on jubilee road

[chorus]
oh, i think tomorrow night
i will knock on his door and hear all about his life
’cause i think that’s the kind of thing that i might like
when i’m old
when i’m old

[verse 3]
there’s max and there’s maude
in the house by the station
call them my best friends
he drinks like a horse
she don’t appreciate it
all this money he seems to spend
i can hear them tonight
he can’t find no vocation
the neighbours they sigh
at that new generation
just getting stoned
down on jubilee road

[chorus]
oh, i think in the summertime
i will call you up, make everything alright
and we’ll fill up our cups with that bitter wine
and i’ll show you
i’ll show you

[verse 4]
the mice are still here
your wardrobe’s still empty
and the walls are still paper thin
and the neighbours, my dear
i think they still hate me
for all these songs i endlessly sing
’cause it ain’t no perfect street
i ain’t no perfect lover
life it is brief
i don’t think we get no other
come back home
down on jubilee road
down on jubilee road
