The Maccabees 1집 - Colour It In (2007) by The Maccabees (보컬) on maniadb.com

Spearmint Rhino was taking our money when Gran was robbed of her own life honey.
The driver-less hornet last post on the trumpet.
His blind, crippled crumpet don't like it but lump it.
The engine won't start without him.
The engine won't start without.

So I went down to Sherry's mod suits and Paul Weller.
All pork pies and drainpipes to wear in all weather.
All of us shed a tear thinking of yesteryear.
Raise whiskey, raise beer, the old boy is not here.
The engine won't start without him.
The engine won't start without.

So he's left us done to the nines with satin for lining
And a coating of pine and the engine is broke I can't fix and I've lost all the coals and we're running quite low
And the engine is broke I can't fix and I've lost all the coals and we're running quite low.

So it's stars and crosses
Reasoning for losses
You learn right from wrong
And then you write the book yourself
Right the wrongs you know,

But then you're all in your rows
All in your rows
All in your row-oh-ohs
All in your rows
All in your row-oh-ohs

Domination fading with war-torn tradition
Picking holes in holy
And in blinkered vision
You left us standing with no understanding
There's no give
There's no give

And then you're all in your rows
All in your rows
All in your row-oh-ohs
All in your rows
All in your row-oh-ohs

So cityscape and countryside
You've got local boys, they're going nationwide
So here's your church and here's your steeple
And you're locking your doors to keep in all the people

Let them go

Swim, swim, swim, swim, swimming
Stay in your lanes
Swim, swim, swim, swim, swimming
Just stay in your lanes

No bombing and no heavy petting
So just stay in your lanes
Verruca socks and not forgetting to
Just stay in your lanes

Madames and monsieurs please return to your cubicles x 8

Latchmere's got a wave machine

Oo oo oo oo oo oo
Oo oo oo oo oo x 4

Came out of the changing rooms
Absolutely nothing had changed
So I stayed in your lanes

Came out of the changing room
And absolutely sod all had changed
So I'll stay in your lanes

Speedo, speed wise
Speedo, speed wise
Speedo, speed wise
So I stayed in your lanes

Bebop?

Stay in your…

Madames and monsieurs please return to your cubicles x 8

Latchmere's got a wave machine

Oo oo oo oo oo oo
Oo oo oo oo oo x 2

Stay in your lanes
Stay
Just stay in your lanes
Stay
Just stay in your
La-ah-ah-ohh-ohh

Latchmere's got a wave machine

It's just what all young lovers do
(00:08.08)It's just what all young lovers do

I noticed you
You stood out like a sore thumb
The most beautiful sore thumb I'd ever seen

I took you out
And I showed you a good time
Danced all night, and I waited ‘til the time was right

You say
Never wrong, never right. Never wrong, never right
Echo, echo, my mind
I say
It's just what all young lovers do

Do you recall
The night that we first met?
And how I burnt your dress with my cigarette

I don't know why
But I'm playing this game, for you
I'm guessing it's just what all young lovers do

You say
Never wrong, never right. Never wrong, never right
Echo, echo, my mind
I say
It's just what all young lovers do

Yes they do

(Never wrong never right never wrong never right)

Yes they do

Echo her
Echo her
Echo her
Echo

It's just what all young lovers do (x4)

Pound for pound and cheek to cheek
Cheek paler than a lamp light
Take me down to light the box
And play super Scalextric

And turn this
Darkness
Into light
And I'll turn too bright
Forget all the hype

I'll need heart and I'll need courage
We all need...

Toe to toe, there's nowhere to go
So I'm tiptoeing around it
I held you down and I held my own
And now I feel like I'm floating

So turn to this
Head on
And keep on
Keeping on

I'll need heart and you'll need courage
We all need time

So let's make time work for us
Let's make time work for us
Let's make time work for us
Let's make time work for us

Let's take our precious time about it
Let's take our precious time about it
Let's take our precious time about it
Let's take our precious time about it

Don't you know, nobody knows
If there's somebody waiting
So you'll hold yourself up and you'll hold yourself in
And then pray that you are growing

And turn to this
Darkness
You turn it into light, and you'll turn too bright
Forget all the hype

You'll need heart and I'll need courage
We all need time

So let's make time work for us
Let's make time work for us
Let's make time work for us
Let's make time work for us

Let's take our precious time about it
Let's take our precious time about it
Let's take our precious time about it
Let's take our precious time about it
Let's take our precious time about it
Let's take our precious time about it
Let's take our precious time about

'cause we'll need heart and we'll need courage
In these times
We'll need heart and we'll need courage
In these times

Because time can mean so much
Are you still mine?

She collects medicines in the box
Where once he had kept his
And holds out hope the year old worries
Will be gone
Long before she goes

So when's your start and when's your end?
The slow depart: happening again

The fun-size can you can expect
It only reflects her wants for you

When's your start and when's your end?
The slow depart happening again

Cause this is not farewell old dear
This is not farewell old dear

So when's your start and when's your end?
The slow depart: happening again

Never cry on your own, never cry
But when you cry
Just try and find some perfect stranger with the tissue shoulders on

'Cos I know the score and it's hard when it's her your crying for

Never go on your own, never go
But when you go
Just try to find someone or other with the GPS turned on

'Cos I've been here before and it's hard when it's her your crying for

So take her and lay her in the ground
I'll be here waiting so patiently not making a song

Don't want to lie alone

I'll find another with a shoestring loveheart thong

Run boy run
Run boy run
Run boy run
Run boy run

Here she comes
Here she comes
She's coming for you

So run boy run
Run boy run

Here she comes
Here she comes
She's coming for you

These are tears of joy not woe
'cause woe-betide I open wide and let inside the flow
These are cries of pain, rejoice
They are heartfelt and coarse
Can you not tell from the pain

So run boy run boy run boy run
She's coming for you

Happy faces alone
Happy faces alone
Happy faces alone
Happy faces alone

So run boy run boy run boy run
She's coming for you

Happy faces alone
Happy faces alone
Happy faces alone
Happy faces alone

In these, the times of unhealthy regret, it's the last cigarette and all the lonely days ahead

These the times of you wish you would
When all the bridges have been burned
And she slowly turns

So run boy run boy run boy run
She's coming for you

Happy faces alone
Happy faces alone
Happy faces alone
Happy faces alone

So run boy run boy run boy run
She's coming for you

Happy faces alone
Happy faces alone
Happy faces alone
Happy faces alone

Happy faces alone
Happy faces alone
Happy faces alone
Happy faces alone
Happy faces alone
Happy faces alone
Happy faces alone

Happy face

So run boy run boy run boy run boy run boy run boy run boy run

So run boy run boy run boy run boy run boy run boy run boy run

First love
Last love
Only love
It's only love

First love
Last love
Only love
It's only love

Do you miss home?
Do you miss home?
And are you cool?
Symmetrical?

Let's get married
And take the boxes
And so she says
Oh lets get married
And take the boxes

Do you want to be alone?
Do you wanna be alone?
And are you cool?
Symmetrical
Hypocritical
Analytical
So critical
Nothing's perfect
And I'm hoping I'll do
But I will not do
Cause nothing's perfect
So I'll have to make do

And it's my mistake
And no mistake
And I would take it back if I could
So stay with me tonight

I'll make my bed, I'll lie in it
And pillow talk you into it
I'll make my bed, I'll lie in it
Entice you with this leopard print and matching velvet duvet

First love
Last love
Only love
It's only love

First love
Last love
Only love
It's only love

Only love
Only love

It's only love

I was in the other room
when handsome was getting leather and laces
couldn't save a family
cause heroes wear masks
and lycra
mary get out
'cause you're freezing
brother get in
get your head kicked in

down down down down
hold yourself down
and you scraped your knee
up up up up
pick yourself up
you get a plaster on your cut
cause its sewn up
sewn up

so you've got yourself in a hole
and you cant get out
I won't be there
I can't be around
to hold you down
and let you know
that the places we cant go
I wont let you fall, I wont hold you back
cause I'm falling away
I'm paying the maximum I'm willing to pay
I'm willing to pay the price that you pay
and the reason I can't stay
is 'cause you live so far away

oh mary get out
'cause you're freezing
and in the end
brother get in
brother get in
brother get in
brother get in

Mum said no to Disneyland
And Dad loves the church
Hallelujah, Oh, Oh

And the boys chew lego
So now we cant build castles or robots
Cause the pieces don't fit together

So look left and look right, cross the road but hold my hand
Look left and look right, cross the road just hold my hand
And we'll hold on, and we'll hold on

Only one, where once stood four
And closest to the kitchen floor
Family favourite

Today we learn't
That screaming are we there yet
Doesn't get you there any faster

So look left and look right, cross the road but hold my hand
Look left and look right, cross the road just hold my hand
And we'll hold on, and we'll hold on

Cross the roads and say goodbye
Cross the roads there wasn't a dry eye
You cross the road and say goodbye
There wasn't a dry eye, cross the road wasn't
A dry eye, there wasn't a dry eye!

Cradle me
I'll cradle you
I'll win your heart
with a woop-a-woo
pulling shapes just for your eyes
so with toothpaste kisses and lines
I'll be yours and you'll be

Lay with me, I'll lay with you
we'll do the things that lovers do
put the stars in our eyes
and with heart shaped bruises
and late night kisses
divine
