The Magic Whip (2015)












Lonesome Street lyrics - Blur

What do you got?
Mass-produced in somewhere hot
You'll have to go on the Underground
To get things done here
(And then you have to see)
If you need a yellow duck, service done
This is a place to come to, or, well, it was
Another hot spot, oh, oh
Crossing on the guillotine

And if you have nobody left to rely on
I'll hold you in my arms and let you drift
It's got to be that time again
And June, June will be over soon again

So get yourself up, get a pass glitch on your way
It's nothing to be ashamed of
Taking off again
The 5:14 to East Grinstead
(You've sent me off to see)
And we go up, up, up, up, up
Coursing on our greatest night
And talking types will let us down again
Talk, talk on your arse all night

You wanna be there
Step inside the tarmac ride
To the land that crime forgot
Oh, just don't go there
Cracks inside the tarmac ride
To the land that crime forgot, oh no

And if you have nobody left to rely on
I'll hold you in my arms and let you drift

Going down to Lonesome Street
Going down to Lonesome Street
Lonesome Street
Going down to Lonesome Street
Lonesome Street
Lonesome Street
Going down to Lonesome Street

New World Towers lyrics - Blur

Green, green, the neon green, new world towers
Carved out of grey white skies, twenty-four hours
Glide through the glass arcade to Hollywood
The psychopomp, it leads me dreaming

Of love, love, so far away, new world towers (Seven on me)
Log in your name and pray, twenty-four hours (Seven on me)
Green turns to red and blue and time relates (Seven on me)
To us all again (Seven on a left-hand side)
And sleep the rescue (Seven on me)

Green, green, the neon green, new world towers (Seven on me)
Plane flying overhead, satellite showers (Seven on me)
Fall like confetti on the cavalcade (Seven on me)
The flashboat seas (Seven on a left-hand side)
All auguries (Seven on me)
Reflected in you (Seven on a left-hand side)

Seven on me
Seven on a left-hand side
Seven on me
Seven on me

Love, love, so far away, new world towers
Carved out of grey white sky, twenty-four hours
Green turns to red and blue and time relates (Seven on me)
The flashboat seas (Seven on a left-hand side)
All auguries (Seven on me)
Reflected in you (Seven on a left-hand side)

Seven on me
Seven on me
Seven on a left-hand side
Seven on me
Seven on me
Seven on me
Seven on me
Seven on a left-hand side
Seven on me

Go Out lyrics - Blur

Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh

I get a set alone
Dancing with myself
Greedy go-getter gone
The luxury of stealth
Obsidian the hall
Dancing with myself
I get into my bed
I do it to myself

To the local (Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
To the lo-o-o, I go out (Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)
To the local, by myself (Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)
To the local (Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)

I get into my head
There's nothing to be addressed now
There's nothing to get up about
'Cause we do it all the time
The shepherdess undone
She done it all again
I get ready to go
The greed go-getter come

He going to the local (Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
He going to the local, oh-oh (Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh)
He going to the local (Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)
He going to the local (Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)

Too many western men
Top button left undone
Imperious their signs
The pedlars of luxury
A greedy go-getter in the sky bar
She on her own
She get ready to go
She does it with herself

She does it with herself (Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
She does it with herself (Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh)
She does it on her own (Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)
She does it on her own (Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)

Ice Cream Man lyrics - Blur

Here comes the ice cream man, parked at the end of the road
With a swish of his magic whip, all the people in the party froze
Screwball, chocolate chip, umbrella in his white glove hand
Shade from the sun was his intention

Here comes the ice cream man, bouncing up the hill
With a wick, the pumpkin lit, Happy Valley cones he fills for
All the lantern men, marching down till dawn
Morning come, we fall over

Something new
Something you
Something new

Here comes the ice cream man, parked at the end of the road
With a swish of his magic whip, all the people in the party froze
I was only twenty-one when I watched it on TV
I was racing in my heart back then

Something new (Oh, oh-oh, oh)
Something new
Something new (Oh, oh-oh, oh)
Something new (Something you do nothing about)
Something new (Oh, oh-oh, oh)
Something new
(Here comes the ice cream man, out with his magic whip)
Something new
(Always sold out by nine, so you better come and get it quick)
Something new (Oh, oh-oh, oh)
Something new

Thought I Was A Spaceman lyrics - Blur

Thought I was a spaceman digging out my heart
In some distant sand dunes in a car park
'Cause the desert had encroached upon the places where we lived
People like me fight to keep the demons in
But we never succeeded, we never succeeded
In fact, we failed

Thought I was a spaceman digging out my heart
In some distant sand dune in a car park
By the empty harbour where the junk boat phantoms float
The fight for Happy Valley
Sadly, the line broke

Thought I found my black box washed up on the shore
On outlying islands past the land fall
Thought I'd thought I'd found it but that was not true at all
I'd walked into a bar, raised hell

Cut the chasm out me, always and always the same
Put the ghost in writing and let it be (You again)
Thought I was a spaceman digging out my heart
In some distant sand dune in Hyde Park

Thought I was a spaceman digging out my heart
In some distant sand dune, you again
Thought I was a spaceman digging out my heart
In some distant sand dune, you again, you again, you again

I Broadcast lyrics - Blur

I love the aspects of another city
The representatives are alright
In circulation, the snake and the tiger
Waking up clean-shaven in industrial light

I broadcast, buzzing on another day now
All for a cold sore, something out of nothing

I love the aspects of another city
It's got your number and your blood type
Living in Tetris, I need soft focus
The apparitions of another bloody good night, right?

I broadcast, buzzing on another day now
All for a high score, something out of nothing

I broadcast
I'm running, I'm running
I'm running (Fuck yeah!)

I broadcast, buzzing on another day now
All for a cold sore, something out of nothing

I broadcast, buzzing on another day now
All for a cold sore, something out of nothing

My Terracotta Heart lyrics - Blur

And the bright rays we got in summertime
Seemed like a breath of fresh air back in the summertime
When we were more like brothers, but that was years ago
So if it doesn't seem like a protocol

I'm running out of heart today
I'm running out of open road to you
And I know you are emoting and you're dazed
Is something broke inside you?
'Cause at the moment I'm lost
And feeling that I don't know if I'm losing you again

And when we fly tomorrow over the Java seas
And my younger maps will be there with me
'Cause they remind me of swimming out too far one day
Then the coral was gone, but I didn't care anyway

I was running out of heart that day
I was running out of open road to you
And I know I was emoting, I was dazed
Is something broke inside me?
'Cause at the moment I'm lost
And feeling that I don't know if I'm losing you again
I'm running out of heart here
Just sitting out the constant doubt in my head
But I don't know what it is
I'm sweating out the toxins
Is my terracotta heart breaking?
I don't know if I'm losing you, if I'm losing you again

There Are Too Many Of Us lyrics - Blur

There are too many of us
That's plain to see
We all believe in praying
For our immortality

We pose this question to our children
That calls them all to stray
And live in tiny houses
Of the same mistakes we make

'Cause there are too many of us
In tiny houses here and there
Passing out somewhere
But you won't care

There are too many of us
That's plain to see
And we all believe in praying
For our own immortality
For a moment, I was dislocated
By terror on a loop elsewhere
The flashing lights part vacated
On the big screens everywhere

'Cause there are too many of us
In tiny houses here and there
Just passing out of somewhere
But you won't care

There are too many of us
In tiny houses here and there
All looking through the windows
On everything we share

We pose this question to our children
It leads them all to stray
And live in tiny houses
Of the same mistakes we make

'Cause there are too many of us
That's plain to see
All living in tiny houses (Passing out somewhere)
Of our own mortality (But you won't care)

Ghost Ship lyrics - Blur

I remember flashbacks lighting up Magic Whip
Eight o'clock, Kowloon emptiness, handle it
The white horse image I had of you eleven seconds ago
I didn't send you, so you will never know
I got away for a little while
But then it came back much harder

Swinging on a cable up to Po Lin
Climbing panda, ghostly wine, and a battery
That light in your eyes I search for religiously
When it's not there, oh Lord, it's hurting me
I got away for a little while
But then it came back much harder

'Til I ever hold you out there again, will you be mine?
'Cause I'm on a ghost ship drowning my heart in Hong Kong
It's the last ride boarding here tonight
Out in the bay (Out in the bay)
I'll need a lantern in you to shine out bright rays

Feeling out of body here, what can I do?
It's up to the top every day to join with you
I had to get away for a little while
But then it came back much harder

'Til I ever hold you out there again, will you be mine?
'Cause I'm on a ghost ship drowning my heart in Hong Kong
It's the last ride boarding here tonight
Out in the bay (Out in the bay)
I'll need a lantern in you to shine out bright rays

'Til I ever hold you out there again, will you be mine?
'Cause I'm on a ghost ship drowning my heart in Hong Kong
It's the last ride boarding here tonight
Out in the bay (Out in the bay)
I'll need a lantern in you to shine out bright rays
Bright rays, bright rays

Pyongyang lyrics - Blur

I look down from my window
To the island where I'm held
They listen while you're sleeping
And darkness is itself
Tomorrow, I'm disappearing
'Cause the trees are amplified
The never-ending broadcast
To which I do not aspire

Kid, the mausoleum's fallen
And the perfect avenues
Will seem empty without you
The pink light that bathed the great leaders is fading
By the time your sun is rising there
Out here, it's turning blue
The silver rockets coming
And the cherry trees of Pyongyang, I'm leaving

I feel like I'm floating
Processed in Auto-Tune
The never ending roll on
To the palace of the doomed
Temperature keeps falling
Soon there will be no lights
Just a red glow, glass coffin
Watched by someone through the night

Kid, the mausoleum's fallen
And the perfect avenues
Will seem empty without you
And the pink light that bathed the great leaders is fading
By the time your sun is rising there
Out here, it's turning blue
The silver rockets coming
And the cherry trees of Pyongyang, I'm leaving

There will be no light
Someone through the night
Someone through the night

Kid, the mausoleum's fallen
And the perfect avenues
Will seem empty without you
And the pink light that bathed the great leaders is fading
By the time your sun is rising there
(Years ago, when we used to be rivals)
Out here, it's turning blue
The silver rockets coming
(Our youths' minds and arms were bound)
And the cherry trees of Pyongyang, I'm leaving
(For our own survival)

Compliance is over
Reality is fables, fables
Ensuring humour, time's child
Ask still, Seoul

Ong Ong lyrics - Blur

La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la

I got on a boat on a hot sunny day
To get out of this town
'Cause the tarmac was melting and the people seem to sway
Stuck in the underground

To the islands, the black kites, the wishing tree
I wanna be with you
On a slow boat to Lantau, the misty seas
I wanna be with you

I crawled out the harbour with recession behind
And now I'm feeling the love of you
So you better get a charge 'til I see you again
You'll know just what to do

If you're caught up in the gales on the junk boat seas
I wanna be with you
With the pilgrims, the mountain, the High Trappist
I wanna be with you

If you're the landlord, the social on BST
I wanna be with you
On an island with red kites and verdant seas
I will be there with you, oh

Mirrorball lyrics - Blur

Mirrorball on a Jordan train
I was under sea then up for air
I did not retain
Ocean Park, where the seagulls cry
I remember flying dragons too
I was there with you

So before you log out
Hold close to me
Hold close to me

I'll be back when December comes
All the barriers have been pulled down
Where is everyone?
Oh, mirrorball, you're spinning out to sea
Think I found you in the temple square
Under the wishing tree

So cry your eyes out
Hold close to me
Hold close to me

I cried my eyes out
Hold close to me
Hold close to me
Hold close to me
Hold close to me

All Your Life lyrics - Blur

Put a new shirt on, wash my face in beer
Fall through the crowd and disappear
In the teenage magazines and shopping malls
Walk through the wildlife for miles and miles
Hold my breath and count a hundred and ten
And back up the hill to start again

Watching spiders on the bedroom ceiling
They got big plans, so they're not breathing
Feel the frisson of tomorrow today
I could get up but it won't go away
Do nothing to impress my friends
Just rub my eyes for hours on end
Oh England, my love, you lost me, made me look a fool

I need someone to tell me
Everything will be alright
I need someone who'll hold me
When the day turns to night
I need someone who loves me
More than you do
Oh we say that's not true
And you and me in line as double bill
Surrogate heroes on TV and films

I've never met anyone like you
I've never done the things you like to do
On the way to heaven in a comedy car
The new stars of melancholia
There's nothing to get angry about
We're too hung over to be bash out
Oh England, my love, you've tattooed your past all over me

I need someone to tell me
Everything will be alright
I need someone who'll hold me
When the day turns to night
I need someone who loves me
More than you do
Oh we say that's not true
And you and me in line as double bill
Surrogate heroes and welcome you will
And yeah I've got a feeling that nobody's sold
I've got a feeling I should let myself go, go, go

And days will be like this
All your life
And days will be like this
All your life
And people will always miss
All your life
But people will always miss
All your life

And days will be like this
And days will be like this
And days will be like this

Bustin' And Dronin' lyrics - Blur

Coming from your eyes
No more selfish lies
It's an awful week
Marry me you freak
There's nothing on the wall
In the bitter hall
The neon lights are on
Some a bit are gone

I'm alone
And I'm alone
And I'm alone
And I'm alone

But you know love is weak
Shifting as we speak
Animals lie down
Ritual underground
The other seems to change
With them all again
The neon lights are on
Stellar we'll take off

I'm alone
I'm alone
I'm alone
I'm alone
I'm alone
I'm alone
I'm alone
I'm alone

Close lyrics - Blur

You put me together, break my bones
I wish that I'd never seen you now
So happy together, would break my bones
I wish that I'd never seen you now

I, I've got to get you close to me
I've got to get you close to me

Spinning together, watch us go
I wish that I'd never seen you now

I, I've got to get you close to me
I've got to get you close to me
I, I've got to get you close to me
I've got to get you close to me, to see through me
I've got to get you close to me [x2]

Cowboy Song lyrics - Blur

Couldn't sell a buck like a private Joe
You're the one, you're the one
Comb my hair and again I stare
Go find a song before too long

I've got a healthy feeling
A sleepy feeling
A sleepy feeling

Today is gone
The day is gone
Today is gone

Go to a store, to the golf floor
A cowboy song, a cowboy song
You're the one, you're the one
In a cowboy song you're the one

I've got a healthy feeling
A sleepy feeling
A sleepy feeling again

It's all gone
Today is gone
It's all gone

I've got a sleepy feeling
A useless feeling
A sleepy feeling

It's all gone
Today is gone
Today is gone

Dancehall lyrics - Blur

There are ghosts in here
An easy laze
They dance all night
With a vacant gaze
They stand in rows
And buy alcohol
We're having fun at the dancehall

Got my pills and I've got my toys
With pin-up girls and pin-up boys
My lips are frozen to another can
Oh I could kill him, but I just kiss his hand

Dizzy lyrics - Blur

I pump poison into my body
To forget that I am me
It felt good
Wonderful
I forget I have feelings at all

You're dizzy
You're dizzy

I floated up, fifteen miles high
Stuck my head through all the holes in our sky
I looked out across the universe and thought of you

You're dizzy
You're dizzy

And I am dizzy too

I became lunatic with rolling eyes
Squirming on the ground
Frozen in ice
Called to my mother
Said "Mother, please
Feed me before the sky falls in on me"

You're dizzy
You're dizzy

You're dizzy
You're dizzy
You're dizzy
You're dizzy
Dizzy
Dizzy
Dizzy
Dizzy

Down lyrics - Blur

You and me we try to change
We try so hard it's all the same
I'm just waiting for it to be -- gin again

Ahh

I'm forgetting who I am
That makes me wonder why I am
Trying so hard to find sense when there's, none at all

Ahh
Ahh

Down, down, down
Down, down, down, down down down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down, down down, down

Staring at the sun all day
If you stare too long you get burned away
Now there's nothing left of me so have it all

Ahh

Forgetting again I blame
My past has just faded away
Now I can tell you everything there is to know about

Ahh

Down, down, down
Down, down, down, down down down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down, down down, down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down, down down down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down, down down down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down, down down down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down, down down down

Ahh
Ahh

Down, down, down
Down, down, down, down down down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down, down down down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down, down down down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down, down down down

Ahh, oh ho -- ohhoh
Ahh -- down
Oh -- down, down

Explain lyrics - Blur

It's pointless to explain why
There's nothing I can say
My words would all be meaningless
Anyway
It seems I can't be trusted
And I don't disagree
What made you ever think I really
Wanted to be

I can't explain why
And I don't know when
I'm ever going to want to
See her again

So don't ask why I came here
There's nothing I can say
I don't think I'll be staying very long
Anyway
I'm trying to find out why
I came here at all
I don't think it was to see you
After all

I can't explain why
And I don't know when
I'm ever going to want to
See her again
I can't explain why
And I don't know when
I'm ever going to want to
See her again

Get Out Of Cities lyrics - Blur

I got the licence, I got dirty knees
I've been swinging in trees
A paid-up member, I've been eating fleas
Running naked in the breeze

Catatonia itch, Catalonia stitch
Oh, I've been running for miles
I start to tingle from my head to my toes
Oh, tomorrow it's a taint on the nose

Hetty-etty-etty hating no money till it goes

Get out of city, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of city, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of city, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of city, return to the trees

She's in the sort of films that capital phrase
Raise the pictures down the whole of Benin
Catatonia itch, Catalonia stitch, oh
Pray tomorrow it's itch, in-itchy, itchy
Could do yourself on your nap

Get out of cities, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of cities, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of cities, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of cities, return to the trees

Get out of cities, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of cities, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of cities, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of cities, and return to the trees

Get out of cities, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of cities, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of cities, return to the trees, yeah yeah
Get out of cities, and return to the trees

I Know lyrics - Blur

I know, I know, I know it'll come between us
I know, I know

What you wanna be is what I am
How you wanna feel is how I feel
But nothing seems the same when I am here
Just waiting for us all to disappear

I know, I know, I know it'll come between us
I know, I know

I wanna get into that pretty head
Just to see if, see if you are dead
And it would amuse me just to see how
How you feel about me and this, crown

I know, I know, I know it'll come between us
I know, I know
I know, I know, I know it'll come between us
I know, I know

I Love Her (Demo) lyrics - Blur

I look at her
Just to see
Is there anyone out there
For me
If you look at her
Do you see
Is there anything in there
For me

I love her
I love, love her
She don't care if I live or die
That is why I love her

So don't talk to me
Don't talk to me
There's so little I can say when I feel this way
So don't talk to me
Don't talk to me
There's very little I can say when I feel this way

I love her
I love, love her
She don't care if I live or die
That is why I love her
I love, love her
She don't care if I live or die
That is why I love her...

I love her, I love love her
She don't care if I live or die
That is why I love her
I love, love her
She don't care if I live or die
That is why...

I love her
I love her
I love her
I love her

I'm All Over lyrics - Blur

I always knew that there would be someone somewhere
Who had it in for me
I always knew that there would be no-one nowhere
Who was anything like me

I'm all over
All over
All over
I'm the only one

I'm hanging around, going nowhere
Waiting for it to happen to me
I always knew that there would be no-one nowhere
Who was anything like me

I'm all over
All over
All over
I'm all over
All over
All over
You're the only one

I always knew that there would be someone somewhere
Who had it in for me
I always knew that there would be no-one nowhere
Who was anything like me

I'm all over
All over
All over
You're the only one

Mr. Briggs lyrics - Blur

Mr Briggs is on a holiday
But he stays in his room
He's too cold to go out for his evening smoke
The lady down the hallway
Is deaf and dumb to what you say
She's too busy dreaming of a chihuahua dog

Say goodbye
Slowly drift away
To somewhere

Mr Briggs needs sleep now
He's been up for a week
He can hear a buzz buzz buzzing in his head
He has a three-bar heater
But it don't keep him warm
If he bought another then he'd have three more

Say goodbye
Slowly drift away
To somewhere

Mr Briggs while on holiday
Never left his bed
Walked around in circles but only in his head
The lady down the hallway
Is running out of pills
She could pull herself together but she knows she never will

Say goodbye
Slowly drift away
To somewhere

Polished Stone lyrics - Blur

Now I fall to the ground
I can't get up, well never mind
I know you'll pull me up by my bones
And say I'm sand to polish stones

Well today is gone and it won't be long
Before we fall asleep and forget what we've done
We won't get up 'cause today is fucked
We're alone

Now, you bite my tongue
And when the alcohol's done
I won't feel a thing
So you don't carry on

Today is gone and it won't be long
Before we fall asleep and forget what we've done
We won't get up 'cause today is fucked
We're alone

It's numb
It's numb
It's numb

Swallows In The Heatwave lyrics - Blur

I want to contribute
To natural selection
Buy myself a razor
Watch swallows in the heatwave
Meet the rebel leaders
They're coming cause they need us

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

I don't have a history
For religion
Goin' out to get one
Get into my Volvo
Drive into the mountains
Watch swallows in the heatwave

The Puritan lyrics - Blur

Now, are we institutionalised
By the demands of today?
In our regalia, are we okay?
Because the flash of a blade
Is one less getting paid there in the lines
And the ice and the gold
It's just a double code, it's a paradigm

For every little thing that fashion gives you
Yeah

So the puritan on a Monday morning
Said, "Happy sad melody"
I'm waltzing on an amazing pulse
In a pornographic sea
Where an absent blade
Is one less in parade to throw overboard
And the ice and the gold
Is just a double code, it's a metaphor

For every little thing that fashion gives you
Yeah

I'm falling into something
That play upon the metronome in your heart
It's smoke and it's mirrors
Until the auto-cue starts
Then the dry ice comes
And we start sucking our thumbs on the TV
And the joy of people
Spirited away so merrily

It's part of every little thing that fashion gives you
Yeah

Here we go

La la la, la, la la la, la
La la la, la la
(Hey puritan, hey puritan)
La la la, la, la la la, la
(What you gonna do about it?)
La la la la la
(It's all smoke and mirrors)
La la la, la, la la la, la
(What you gonna do about it?)
La la la la la
(Hey puritan, hey puritan)
La la la, la, la la la, la
(What you gonna do about it?)
La la la la la
La la la, la, la la la, la
(What you gonna do about it?)
La la la la la
La la la, la, la la la, la

Uncle Love lyrics - Blur

Uncle Love just got a message from God
That you are driving him crazy
Tomorrow he says the doctor comes
With a drink to make him lazy

Did you realise that Uncle Love's
Got a catapult in his hand
Everything sticks to you like glue
But it just makes you lazy

You should hear what they say
About you everyday
You should hear what they say
Uncle Love's going to get you

Uncle Love just got a message from God
That you are driving him crazy
Everything sticks to you like glue
But it just makes you lazy

Under The Westway lyrics - Blur

There were blue skies in my city today
Everything was sinking, said snow would come on Sunday
The old school was due and the traffic grew
Upon the Westway
Where I stood watching comets' lonesome trails
Shining up above me, the jet fuel, it fell
Down to earth where the money always comes first
And the sirens sing

Bring us the day they switch off the machines
'Cause men in yellow jackets putting adverts inside my dreams
An automated song and the whole world gone
Fallen under the spell of the distance
Between us when we communicate
Still picking up shortwave, somewhere they're out in space
It depends how you're wired when the night's on fire
Under the Westway

Now it's magic arrows hitting the bull
Doing one-eighty, still standing at last call
When the flag's coming down
And the Last Post sounds just like a love song
For the way I feel about you
Paradise not lost, it's in you
On a permanent basis, I apologise
But I am going to sing

Hallelujah
Sing it out loud and sing it to ya
Am I lost out at sea?
'Til a tide wash me up off the Westway

Won't Do It lyrics - Blur

So much to be and so much to see
There's very little here for me
It's really hard to get through

So won't do it anymore
Don't feel it anymore
Won't do it anymore
Can't feel it

There's so much I'd like to say
You're not bothered either way
It's really hard to talk to you

So won't do it anymore
Don't do it anymore
Won't do it anymore
Can't feel it

So won't do it anymore
Don't feel it anymore
Won't do it anymore
Can't feel it

So won't do it anymore
Don't feel it anymore
Won't do it anymore
Can't feel it anymore

So won't do it anymore
Don't feel it anymore
Won't do it anymore
Can't feel it

Woodpigeon Song lyrics - Blur

Disingenious and tame
Everybody makes mistakes, sometimes
Wood-pigeon in strip light
Does it every night

It's a feeling that's around
It's a feeling that's around

Wood-pigeon in strip light
Does it every night

Young And Lovely lyrics - Blur

Friday's child is planning to go out
For the first time
Says "Don't worry, mum
I won't be out that late"
Done me playing those passive games right now
They're out of date
You're awfully sweet
Haven't got the time
Growing up so fast
Got better things to do

You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely
Ah, ah, ah, la, la, la
You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely
Ah, ah, ah, la, la, la

Kicking around in the centre of the town
Looking in shop windows
Those mannequins
Look far too real at night
Friday's child doesn't know if it's awake
Or if it's dreaming
Says" Don't worry dad
I'll do my bit, I'll raise the flag, I'll be just like you"

You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely
Ah, ah, ah, la, la, la
You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely
Ah, ah, ah, la, la, la

Don't worry, mum
I'm not that dumb, I'll be just like you

You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely
Ah, ah, ah, la, la, la
You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely
Ah, ah, ah, la, la, la
You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely
Ah, ah, ah, la, la, la
You can get what you want
You're so young and lovely
Ah, ah, ah, la, la, la

Oh, no, why
Why'd you do it?
Why you're so
La, la, la...

Ambulance Lyrics - Blur


I ain't got
Nothing to be scared of,
No I ain't got
Nothing to be scared of
No I ain't got
Anything to be scared of
'Cos I love you

I was born out of love
It's the only way to come into this world
I know I'm not all there
But I'm getting, getting, getting there
If you let me live my life
I'll stay with you to the end
And I know, lord
I'm nearly there
I want to tell you this

I ain't got
Nothing to be scared of, no
No I ain't got
Nothing to be scared of, no
No I ain't got
Anything to be scared
Cause I love you

I ain't got
Nothing to be scared of
No ain't got
Nothing to be scared of [x2]


Out Of Time Lyrics - Blur

Where's the love song?
To set us free
Too many people down
Everything turning the wrong way around
And I don't know what love will be
But if we start dreaming now
Lord knows we'll never leave the clouds

[CHORUS:]
And you've been so busy lately
that you haven't found the time
To open up your mind
And watch the world spinning gently out of time

Feel the sunshine on your face
It's in a computer now
Gone to the future, way out in space

[REPEAT CHORUS (x2)]

Tell me I'm not dreaming but are we out of time?
(We're) out of time

Out of time [x4]

Good Song Lyrics - Blur


Waiting, I got no town to hide in
The country's got a hold of my soul
TV's dead and there ain't no war in my head
And you seem very beautiful to me

Sleeping but my works not done
I could be lying on an atom bomb
I'll take care
Cause I know you'll be there
You seem very beautiful to me

It is the rest of your life keeps a rolling and rolling
Picture in my pocket looks like you
It is the rest of your life keeps a rolling, rolling, rolling along

On The Way To The Club Lyrics - Blur

On my way to the club
I fell down a hole
All the people there
Said you come alone
And I, I just want to be, darling with you
The music's made that way
My eyes aren't blue
There's nothing I can do

So I stayed in the club
Just rewarding myself
Happiness could turn into something else
And I just wanna be, darling with you
The music's made that way
My eyes aren't blue, there's nothing I can do

Brothers And Sisters Lyrics - Blur

Brothers and sisters
Rebuild your lives
We're all drug takers
Give us something tonight

A cartoon in a ketamine
Jelly mixed with margarine
White doves from the war machine
Every body movin
Cocaine is for murderers
Codeine for the jurors
Caffeine been through all of us
All the people horny
Crackwhores back in town again
Eggships sniffing benelyn
Burning all the oil again
Smoking makes you holy
Textin abbreviates the brain
Aspirin takes away the pain
Rock on, everyone the same
That's the way it is

Brothers and sisters
Rebuild your lives
We're all drug takers
Give us something tonight

Rohypnol like a chloroform
Sugar from the day you are born
Washed out like a dinosaur
Really don't believe it.
Sticky sniffing superglue
sulphates keep you in a zoo
Monkeys turning into you
Everybody horney
Acid good up on the moors
Gimpo stops you getting bored
Beta's busy making laws
Procaine stops you screaming
Librium for anxiety
Drinking it our society
That's the way it is
that's the way it is even when we're pissed

Caravan Lyrics - Blur

Caravan is lost
In the sun and the dust
No-one loves you
When you are lost
Yeah I've been a clown
Trying to pull my whole world down
I thought I was strong
But you are the one
And when it comes, you'll feel the weight of it
The weight of it
And the day and you'll get away from it,
Away from it

Sometimes everything is easy
Sometimes everything is easy
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la

I try to quit
But my heart won't buy it
I got family
The caravan comes back for me

And when it comes you'll feel the weight of it,
The weight of it
And the day, and you'll get away from it
Away from it

Sometimes everything is easy
Sometimes everything is easy
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la [repeat]

We've Got A File On You Lyrics - Blur


We got a file on you
We got a file on you
We got a file on you
We got a ... on you

We got a file on you
We got a file on you
We got a file on you
We got a ... on you

Moroccan Peoples Revolutionary Bowls Club Lyrics - Blur

The trees are spinning oxygen
They're the rockets we should fear
If we go and let them off then we will disappear
Then we will disappear, surely we will disappear

The road is hot and dusty
The desert needs a beer
But if we go and blow it up then we will disappear
Then we will disappear, surely we will disappear
If we go and blow it up then we will disappear
We will disappear surely
We will disappear [x4]
We will disappear

Sweet Song Lyrics - Blur


What am I to do
Someone here is really not happy
Put myself on a line
It seems I never got through to you
So I wean myself off slowly

I'm a darkened soul
My streets all pop music and gold
Our lives are on TV
You switch off and try to sleep
People get so lonely

I believe I believe I believe
Everything's out to sea
I believe I believe I believe I believe
That is the way it should be
I hope you feel the same

Everyone is dying
Stop crying now here comes the sun
I didn't mean to hurt you no no no
It takes time to see what you have done
So I wean myself off slowly

I believe I believe I believe
Love is the only one
I deceive I deceive I deceive I deceive
Cos' I'm not that strong
Hope you feel the same

And now it seems that we're falling apart
But I hope I see the good in you come back again
I just believed in you

Jets Lyrics - Blur

Jets are like comets at sunset
Jets are like comets at sunset
Jets are like comets at sunset
Jets are like comets at sunset
Jets are like comets at sunset
Jets are like comets at sunset
Jets are like comets at sunset
Jets are like comets at sunset
Jets are like comets at sunset
Jets are like comets
Jets are like comets

Gene By Gene Lyrics - Blur


I got a brain in left hand drive
I don't asleep other side
I ride a bullet like I'm Steve McQueen
Each town I intervene
A gram of keef and the barn is jumping
It's alright we got time
Got a radio hit in mind
Can't see am I blind

Every night and day (I'll never forget)
In the U.S.A....I DELETE MYSELF

Got to know you gene by gene
You're my jellybean
Get out the shower
And I'm force 15
I'm dead I'm clean
Fatboy and the barn is jumping
It's alright it's just tight

GOT to GET into A better Business
DEEP down Happiness

Every night and day (I'll never forget)
In the U.S.A.... I delete myself

I delete myself
I delete myself
I delete myself
I delete myself
I delete myself
I delete myself
I delete myself
I delete myself

Battery In Your Leg Lyrics - Blur

This is a ballad for the good times
So put a battery in your leg
Put a rock beat over anything
Get it stuck there in your head
You can be with me

I got nothing to rely on
I've broken every bone
Everybody's stop believing
But you know you're not alone
You can be with me

This is a ballad for the good times
And all the dignity we had
Don't get het up on the evil things
You ain't coming back
You can be with me
If you want to be
You can be with me....

Music Is My Radar Lyrics - Blur

You really got me seeing you
Really got me done y'all
Music is my radar
Really topped my joy y'all

Really topped my radio
Really got me done y'all
Dealing I'll be seeing you
Really got my beats now, on my ear now...

Aah don't stop me now, [x7]

Really got me changing from my bill from job
Into a new life, oh you really got
Really got me singing elsewhere, oh my girl
Really got me dancin', dancin' in my head now baby

Tony Allen dancing

Tony Allen gets what a boy can do
Really got me dancin'
He really got me dancin'
But I don't give my soul
All ya'll need and yeah don't give a soul
You really got me driftin'
You really got me dancin'
You really got me dancin' in my head

Aah don't stop me now, [x7]

Aah don't stop me now (You really got me dancin') [Repeat to fade]

Black Book Lyrics - Blur


Put away my black book
Throw it on the fire
Getting out the side door
You are my one desire
Baby when you hold me
I feel see you're everything
Baby when you touch me
I need nothing no more
Put away my black book
Put in on the fire
Don't give up on me Lord
Take my spirit higher
Nothing can behold me
Don't put me on the fire
Baby when you hold me
I will see no fear
Baby when you touch me
You see it in my eyes
Put away my black book
Put it on the fire
I've made up my mind
I got nothing to hide
I've made up my mind
I got nothing to hide
Give me my soul [x7]
Give you my soul
Give me my soul
Give you my soul [x10]
Give you...
Give you my soul [x4]
[sang by London Community Gospel Choir]


Headist / Into Another Lyrics - Blur

It starts feeling now
It makes no inference of difference
It still won't see it's his
Faint from lack of air
It makes a whistle with a twistle
But no one can hear
Didn't stay long
I had to go away to stay
As long as I could
So I'm happy here
Cause here is where the heart is
I know you think that too
Into another
You and me
Am I dead
Sleep in Harlow's bed
Into another
Am I dead
Sleep in Harlow's bed
Listening to our tune
With headphone and volume on
I can read your lips
And in a clinical term I've heard it said
"Everything is beautiful, but nothing hurt"
Into another
You and me
Am I dead
Sleep in Harlow's bed
Into another
You and me
Am I dead
Sleep in Harlow's bed



7 Days Lyrics - Blur

Here's one from the head
The one that bounced straight through
The rubber soul
It's good advice
For everyone
You end up where you started crawling from
I'm always bouncing into the other
Again and again you find it's yet another
So I'm always bouncing into the other
Seven days to seven days
Here's one from far away
The way I lose confidence
In what I say
I'm only here
For a while
Leave me quick I'm only here for a while
I'm always bouncing into the other
Again and again you find it's yet another
So I'm always bouncing into the other
Seven days to seven days
Always seven days
Always seven days
Always, always, always
I'm always bouncing into the other
Again and again you find it's yet another
So I'm always bouncing into the other
Seven days to seven days

She's So High Lyrics - Blur


I see her face
Everyday
I see her face
It doesn't help me
She's so high
I want to crawl all over her
I think of her
Everyday
I think of her
It doesn't help me
She's so high
I want to crawl all over her
She doesn't help me
She's so high
I want to crawl all over her

Coffee & TV Lyrics - Blur

Do you feel like a chain store?
Practically floored
One of many zeros
Kicked around bored
Your ears are full but your empty
Holding out your heart
To people who never really
Care how you are

So give me Coffee and TV
History
I've seen so much
I'm goin blind
And i'm braindead virtually
Sociability
It's hard enough for me
Take me away from this big bad world
And agree to marry me
So we can start all over again

Do you go to the country
It isn't very far
There's people there who will hurt you
Cos of who you are

Your ears are full of the language
There's wisdom there you're sure
'Til the words start slurring
And you can't find the door

So give me Coffee and TV
History
I've seen so much
I'm goin blind
And i'm braindead virtually
Sociability
It's hard enough for me
Take me away from this big bad world
And agree to marry me
So we can start all over again

So give me Coffee and TV
History
I've seen so much
I'm goin blind
And i'm braindead virtually
Sociability
It's hard enough for me
Take me away from this big bad world
And agree to marry me
So we can start all over again

Oh...we could start over again
Oh...we could start over again
Oh...we could start over again
Oh...we could start over again

1992 Lyrics - Blur

Going into business
An agreement of your bombast
You'd love my bed
You took the other instead
But don't you feel low
I was being oblique
And you'd love my bed
You got the other instead

What do you owe me?
The price of your piece of mind
You'd love my bed
You took the other instead

Mellow Song Lyrics - Blur


I left my street
I'm a guillotine
Pulling away
In my machine,
Where have I been, now?
Not you

Shooting stars in my left arm
An alcohol low
Giving away time to Casio
Sun is slow
I got soul

Is this where I'm going to
We'll see
We'll see
We'll see

I kill this sleep
I'm the man in the moon
Walking on sand on my home high noon
In love with the moon, love you

Cos I lift my Street
I'm a guillotine
Pull it away
In my machine
Forget where I've been before
Forget you

Is this where I'm going to
We'll see
We'll see
We'll see

Don't sleep at night, the worlds growing old

I lost my girl to the Rolling Stones

Trimm Trabb Lyrics - Blur


I got no style
I'll take my time
All those losers on the piss again
I dose dose away

That's just the way it is
That's just the way it is

I've got trimm trabb
Like the flash boys have
And I can't go back
Let it flow, let it flow
I sleep alone
I sleep alone

That's just the way it is
Just the way it is
Just the way it is
Just the way it is
Just the way it is
That's just the way it is

I got trimm trabb
Like the flash boys have
And I can't go back
Let it flow, let it flow
I sleep alone
I sleep alone

No Distance Left To Run Lyrics - Blur

It's over
You don't need to tell me
I hope you're with someone who makes you
feel safe in your sleeping tonight
I won't kill myself, trying to stay in your life
I got no distance left to run

When you see me
Please turn your back and walk away
I don't want to see you
Cos i know the dreams that you keep is wearing me
When your coming down, think of me here
I got no distance left to run

It's over, I knew it would end this way
I hope you're with someone who makes you feel
That this life is the night
And it settles down, stays around
Spends more time with you
I got no distance left to run

Song 2 Lyrics - Blur


I got my head checked
By a jumbo jet
It wasn't easy
But nothing is
No

[chorus]
Woo-hoo
When I feel heavy-metal
And I'm pins and I'm needles
Well, I lie and I'm easy
All the time but I am never sure
Why I need you
Pleased to meet you

I got my head down
When I was young
It's not my problem
It's not my problem

Country Sad Ballad Man Lyrics - Blur

Yeah I found nowhere
It got to know me
Let me sleep all day
Spent the money
I haven't felt my legs
Since the summer
And I don't call my friends
Forgot the numbers

[Chorus]
VIP 223
Have my chances
They have me
Now stay up nights
Watch TV
I'm a country sad
I'm a ballad man

I'm on a come back roll
Yeah I'm a bizzard
And in my motor home
Sweat on my pillow all night

[repeat chorus]

M.O.R. Lyrics - Blur

It's automatic
I need to unload
Under the pressure
Gone middle of the road
Fall into fashion
Fall out again
We stick together
Cause it never ends

Here comes a low
I'm a boy and you're a girl
Here comes a high
The only ones in the world
Here comes everything
You and me can work it out
Here it comes
You, me, we'll work it out!

Here comes tomorrow
1 2 3 episodes
We stick together
Gone middle of the road
Cause that's entertainment
It's the sound of the wheel
It rolls on forever
You know how good it feels

Here comes a low
I'm a boy and you're a girl
Here comes a high
The only ones that's in the world
Here comes everything
We're like monkeys out in the space
Here it comes
We are members of the human race
You, me, we'll work it out!

It's automatic
I need to unload
Under the pressure
Gone middle of the road
Fall into fashion
Fall out again
We stick together
Cause it never ends

Here comes a low
I'm a boy and you're a girl
Here comes a high
You're the only one that's in the world
Here comes everything
You and me can work it out
Here it comes
You, me, we'll work it out!


On Your Own Lyrics - Blur

Holy man tiptoed his way across the Ganges
The sound of magic music in his ears
Videoded by a bus load of touristis
Shinny shellsuits and drinking lemonade
Now I got a funny feeling
Which I bought mailorder
From a man in a teepee in California
Said he once was a great game show performer
Then he blew all his money away
Blew it all away

[Chorus]
So take me home
Don't leave alone
I'm not that good
But I'm not that bad
No psycho killer
Hooligan gorilla
I dream to riot
Oh you should try it
I'll eat parole get gold card soul
My joy of life is on a roll
And we'll all be the same in the end

Then you're on your own

Well we go happy day glow in the discos
The sound of magic music in our brains
Someone stumbles to the bathroom
with the horrors
Says lord give me time for I've jumped into space
I'm in outter space

[repeat chorus]

You're So Great Lyrics - Blur

Sad drunk and poorly
Sleep in really late
Sad drunk and poorly
Not feeling so great
Wandering lost in a town full of frowns
Sad drunk and poorly
Dogs digging up the ground

[Chorus]
And I feel the light in the night and in the day
And I feel the light
When the sky's just mud and grey
And I feel the night when you tell me it's OK
Coz you're so great and I love you

Tea, tea and coffee
Helps to start the day
Tea, tea and coffee
Shaking all the way
City's alive, a surprise so am I
Tea, tea and coffee, get no sleep today

[repeat chorus]


Chinese Bombs Lyrics - Blur

He makes an inner arm block
Then kicks off from behind
The lights they go off
But he can fight blind
Coz he got the touch
But he won't live long
Coz he comes from Hong Kong
Where people are strong

Chinese bombs, millions jump,
Chairman's junk USA
Won't somebody, won't somebody
Sink this place

Got a cab to go to Soho
The dragon says go
Let everyone know
You got the touch
You come from Hong Kong
Where people are strong
And you won't live long

Chinese bombs, millions jump
Chairman's junk,USA
Won't somebody, won't somebody
Bruce Lee comes to save the day
Bruce Lee comes to save Chinese way


I'm Just A Killer For Your Love Lyrics - Blur

I heard a man who had no lungs
he took me in and made me lunch
He told me how I'd lost my friend
He smiled at me it was the end
I said

I'm just a killer for your love [X4]

I cut my hair off in the road
I take my coat off dropped my load
I wipe my hands on the grass
Coz I know that nothing ever lasts
And I said

I'm just a killer for your love [X4]

Look Inside America Lyrics - Blur

Good morning lethargy
Drink pepsi is good for energy
The bath's on, smoke in the bedroom
Sore throat and on my neck a nasty bruise
Where it came from, well I don't know
We played last night, it was a good show

Got the play out, second rate chatshow
It's a nation wide deal, so you gotta go
Chuck from the company says it will be alright
Got an ad on KROQ
And there's an in-store tonight
Well I build things up
Then I let them go
Got to get time share on the radio

Look inside America, she's alright, she's alright
Sitting out the distance
But I'm not trying to make her mine
Looking for America
With its kooky nights and suicide
Where the TV says it's alright
Coz' everybody's hung up on something or other

Steppin' off in 20, so the driver says
I should sleep tonight
But I think I'll watch videos instead
Annie Hall leaves NY in the end
Press rewind and Woody gets her back again
And the whole world could pass through me
But I don't know if it means much to me

Look inside America
She's alright, she's alright
Sitting out the distance
But I'm not trying to make her mine
Looking for America
With its kooky nights and suicide
Where the TV says it's alright
Coz everybody's strung out on something or other

And the whole world
Could pass through me
But I don't know if it means much to me

Strange News From Another Star Lyrics - Blur

All I want to be is washed out by the sea
No death star over me
Won't give me any peace
All I want is light relief
Put the crazies on the street
Give them guns and feed them meat
Now shoot the death star down
Dig a hole and put it down
Thousand miles undergroung

[Chorus]
They say it's no game
There's strange news from another star
I'm lost, I'm lost
There's strange news from another star

Give me all your stuff
Until I can't get up
Watch the whole world freeze
Countig tin can in our sleep
I don't believe in me
I don't believe in me
All I've ever done is tame
Will you love me all the same
Will you love me though
Always the same

[repeat chorus]


Movin' On Lyrics - Blur

At the music heist
I met the gourmet man
With aluminium lungs
Sucks all we can

Seek the whole world go flip
In a stunt bug style
With a cellulite pile
But he can smile

This is the music
And we're movin' on, movin' on

We're sticky eyes and sticky bones
You get no time on your own
You get a dose and get a ghost
You get it coast to coast
Dye your hair black
Get Satan tattoed on your back
Pierce yourself with a coke can
Put yourself in fake tan now you're in a band

Coz this is the music
And we're movin' on, movin' on
Hey, this is the music
And we're movin' on, movin' on
No matter how low, there's always further to go
We're movin' on, movin' on

We're movin' on, it won't be long
We're movin' on, it won't be long

Essex Dogs Lyrics - Blur


I remember thinking murder in the car
Watching dogs somersault
Through sprinkles on tiny laws
I remember the graffti, we are your children
Coming in with spray cans of paint
I remember the sunset and the plains of cement
And the way the nights seems to turn the colour
of orangeade

In this town cellular phones are hot with thieves
In this town we all go to terminal pubs
It helps us sweat out those angry bits of life
From this town the English Army grind
Their teeth to glass
You'll get kicked tonight
Smell of puke and piss
Smell of puke and piss on your stillettoes

Here comes the panic attack
My heart stops then starts
Give me a drink
I'll drink your round
I'll take you round the pole
It's cold up here
You'll catch the flu or you'll catch the city
Either way, you'll catch the flu
Or you'll catch the city

Stereotypes Lyrics - Blur

The suburbs they are dreaming, they are a twinkle in her eye
She's been feeling frisky since her husband said goodbye
She wears a low cut t-shirt runs a little bmw
She's most accommodating when she's in her lingerie
Wife swapping is the future, you know that it would suit you

[Chorus]
Yes, they're stereotypes, there must be more to life
All your life you are dreaming and then you stop dreaming
From time to time you know you should be going on another bender

The suburbs they are sleeping but she's dressing up tonight
She likes a man in uniform he loves to wear it tight
They are on the lover's sofa they are on the patio
And when the fun is over watch themselves on video
The neighbours may be staring, but they are just past caring

[repeat chorus]

Yes, they're must be more to life, they're stereotypes

Wife swapping is the future, you know that it would suit you

[repeat chorus]

Charmless Man Lyrics - Blur

I met him in a crowded room
Where people go to drink away their gloom
He sat me down and so began
The story of a charmless man
Educated the expensive way
He knows his claret from a beaujolais
I think he'd like to have been Ronnie Kray
But then nature didn't make him that way

He thinks his educated airs those family shares
Will protect him, that you will respect him
He moves in circles of friends who just pretend that they like him
He does the same to them and when you put it all together
There's the model of a charmless man

He knows the swingers and their cavalry
Says he can get in anywhere for free
I began to go a little cross eyed
And from this charmless man I just had to hide

He talks at speed he gets nose bleeds
He doesn't see his days are tumbling down upon him
Yet he tries so hard to please he's just so keen for you to listen
But no-one is listening and when you put it all together
There's the model of a charmless man

He thinks his educated airs, those family shares
Will protect him, that you will respect him
Yet he tries so hard to please he's just so keen for you to listen
But no-one is listening and when you put it all together
There's the model of a charmless man


Country House Lyrics - Blur

And so the the story begins

City dweller, successful fella
Thought to himself oops I've got a lot of money
I'm caught in a rat race terminally
I'm a professional cynic but my heart's not in it
I'm paying the price of living life at the limit
Caught up in the centuries anxiety
It preys on him, he's getting thin

He lives in a house, a very big house in the country
Watching afternoon repeats and the food he eats in the country
He takes all manner of pills and piles up analyst bills in the country
It's like an animal farm lot's of rural charm in the country

He's got morning glory, life's a different story
Everything going jackanory, in touch with his own mortality
He's reading balzac, knocking back prozac
It's a helping hand that makes you feel wonderfully bland
Oh it's the centuries remedy
For the faint at heart, a new start

He lives in a house, a very big house in the country
He's got a fog in his chest so he needs a lot of rest in the country
He doesn't drink smoke laugh, takes herbal baths in the country
Says she's come to no harm on an animal farm in the country

In the country, in the country

Blow, blow me out I am so sad, I don't know why
Blow, blow me out I am so sad, I don't know why

He lives in a house, a very big house in the country
Watching afternoon repeats and the food he eats in the country
He takes all manner of pills and piles up analyst bills in the country
Oh, it's like an animal farm lot's of rural charm in the country

He lives in a house, a very big house in the country
He's got a fog in his chest so he needs a lot of rest in the country
He doesn't drink smoke laugh, takes herbal baths in the country
And she's come to no harm on an animal farm in the country

Best Days Lyrics - Blur


Door bells say goodbye to the last train
Over the river they all go again
Out into leafy nowhere hope someone's waiting out there for them
Cabbie has his mind on a fare to the sun
He works nights but it's not much fun
Picks up the london yo-yos
All on their own down soho
Take me home

Other people wouldn't like to hear you
If you said that these are the best days of their lives
Other people turn around and laugh at you
If you said that these are the best days of our lives

Trellick tower's been calling
I know she'll leave me in the morning

In hotel cells listening to dull tones
Remote controls and cable moans
In his drink he's been talking
Gets disconnected sleepwalking back home

Other people wouldn't like to hear you
If you said that these are the best days of our lives
Other people turn around and laugh at you
If you said that these are the best days of our lives, of our lives

Other people wouldn't like to hear you
If you said that these are the best days of our lives
Other people turn around and laugh at you
If you said that these are the best days of our lives
Other people break into a cold sweat
If you said that these are the best days of their lives
And other people turn around and laugh at you
If you said that these are the best days of our lives, of our lives



Fade Away Lyrics - Blur

They stumbled into their lives
In a vague way became man and wife
One got the other they deserved one another
They settled in a brand new town
With people from the same background
Kept themselves busy
Long hours left them dizzy
Now when he's in, she's out

All you ever do is fade away
All you ever do is fade away
They are not making plans
Because now they understand
All you ever do is fade away

He noticed he had visible lines
She worried about her behind
Their birth had been the death of them
It didn't really bother them
Now when she's in, he's out

All you ever do is fade away
All you ever do is fade away
She's not making plans
Because now she understand
All you ever do is fade away

When he's in, she's out

All you ever do is fade away
All you ever do is fade away
They're not making plans
Because now they understand
You must learn to forget
Cause this is all you have
All you ever do is fade away
All you ever do is fade away
All you ever do is fade away

They're not making plans
Because now they understand
All you ever do is fade away
All you ever do is fade away
All you ever do is fade away

Top Man Lyrics - Blur

This is a public warning
Be careful when you're out
We are having freaky weather
There's a lot of it about
On the terraces is it swinging
He's a monkey on the roof
You've seen him on the telly
So let me introduce you're host tonight

T.o.p.m.a.n.
he's naughty by nature
T.o.p.m.a.n.
on doubles and chasers
T.o.p.m.a.n.
guilette or a razor
T.o.p.m.a.n.
shooting guns on the high street of love

In a crowd it's hard to spot him
But anonymity can cost
He's never cheap or cheerful
He's hugo and he's boss
He's riding through the desert on a camel light
And on a magic carpet he'll fly away tonight
Open sesame

T.o.p.m.a.n.
he's naughty by nature
T.o.p.m.a.n.
on doubles and chasers
T.o.p.m.a.n.
guilette or a razor
T.o.p.m.a.n.
shooting guns on the high street of love
T.o.p.m.a.n.
sees her in double
T.o.p.m.a.n.
then pukes on the pavement
T.o.p.m.a.n.
likes her all clean and shaven
T.o.p.m.a.n.
shooting guns on the high street of love

T.o.p.m.a.n.
he's naughty by nature
T.o.p.m.a.n.
on doubles and chasers
T.o.p.m.a.n.
guilette or a razor
T.o.p.m.a.n.
shooting guns on the high street of love
T.o.p.m.a.n.
shooting guns on the high street of love
T.o.p.m.a.n.
shooting guns on the high street of love


The Universal Lyrics - Blur


This is the next century
Where the universal's free
You can find it anywhere
Yes, the future has been sold
Every night we're gone
And to karaoke songs
How we like to sing a long
Although the words are wrong

It really, really, really could happen
Yes, it really, really, really could happen
When the days they seem to fall through you, well just let them go

No one here is alone, satellites in every home
Yes the universal's here, here for everyone
Every paper that you read
Says tomorrow is your lucky day
Well, here's your lucky day

It really, really, really could happen
Yes, it really, really, really could happen
When the days they seem to fall through you, well just let them go

Well, it really, really, really could happen
Yes, it really, really, really could happen
When the days they seem to fall through you, well just let them go

Just let them go


Mr. Robinsons' Quango Lyrics - Blur

Mr. robinson and his quango
Dirty dealer, expensive car
Runs the buses and the evening star
He got a hairpiece and he got herpes
His private life is very discreet
A nicer man you're never going to meet
A self professed saviour of the dim right wing
He's got respiratory problems and a masons ring

Mr. robinson and his quango
Drinks with the general and the county wives
Yes the family business is doing all right
They are doing tangos down in the quangos
He makes them tick and he makes them tock
And if he doesn't like you he'll put you in the dock
He just sits in his leather chair and twiddles his thumbs
Gets his secretary in and pinches her bum

He ran into the toilet in the town hall
Got a biro out and he wrote on the wall
I'm wearing black french knickers on under my suit
Wearing stockings and suspenders oh I'm feeling rather loose

Oh I'm a naughty boy
Oh I'm a naughty, naughty boy

Oh I'm a naughty boy, oh I'm a naughty, naughty boy
Oh I'm a naughty boy, oh I'm a naughty, naughty boy
Oh I'm a naughty boy, oh I'm a naughty, naughty boy


"He Thought Of Cars Lyrics - Blur

Moscow's still red, the young man is dead
Gone to heaven instead, the evening news says he was confused
The motorways will all merge soon, lottery winner buys the moon
They've come to save us, the space invaders are here

He thought of cars and where, where to drive them
Who to drive them with
There, there was no-one, no-one

There's panic at london heathrow
Everybody wants to go up into the blue
But there's a ten year queue
Columbia is in top gear, it shouldn't snow at this time of year
Now america's shot gone and done the lot

He thought of planes and where, where to fly to
And who to fly there with
Where, there was no-one, no-one

He thought of cars and where, where to drive them
Who to drive them with
There, there was no-one, no-one



It Could Be You Lyrics - Blur

Churchill got his lucky number but tomorrow there's another
Could be me, could be you, no silver spoon
Sticky teeth they rot too soon
You've got to have the best tunes or that's it, you've blown it

All we want is to be happy in our homes like happy families
Be the man on the beach with the world at his feet
Yes, it could be you, ohoh oh

The likely lads are picking up the uglies
Yesterday they were just puppies
Beery slurs now life's a blur
Telly addicts
You should seem that at it
Getting in a panic
Will we be there?
Trafalgar square

All we want is to be happy in our homes like happy families
Be the man on the beach with the world at his feet
Yes, it could be you

Could be me, could be you
Could be me, could be you

Could be me, could be you
Could be me, could be you, could be you, could be you

Don't worry, if it's not your lucky number
Because tomorrow there is another
Could be you, could be me

All we want is to be happy in our homes like happy families
Be the man on the beach with the world at his feet
Yes, it could be you, ohoh oh


Ernold Same Lyrics - Blur

Ernold same awoke from the same dream in the same bed at the same time
Looked in the same mirror made the same frown
And felt the same way as he did every day
Then ernold same caught the same train at the same station
Sat in the same seat with the same nasty stain next to same old what's his name
On his way to the same place to do the same thing again and again and again
Poor old ernold same

Oh ernold same, his world stays the same
Today will always be tomorrow
Poor ernold same, he's getting that feeling once again
Nothing will change tomorrow

Globe Alone Lyrics - Blur

Who met this one on the m1
Who hasn't stopped sucking his thumb
Who very straight and never grins
Who cars what car he's driving in

He is because he saw it on a commercial break
And if he doesn't get what he wants then he'll get a headache
Because he needs it, wants it, almost loves it
He's here on his own, on globe alone
Here on his own

Who joined health club to glisten
Into hi-fi precision
Who's mobile phone gives him the bone
Who very keen on Sharon Stone

He is because he saw it on a commercial break
And if he doesn't get what he wants then he'll get a headache
Because he needs it, wants it, almost loves it
He's here on his own, on globe alone

Here on his own, on globe alone

Who eats at the new brasserie
Who only ever gets Mary
Who wouldn't be seen at bedtime
Without putting Calvin Kleins on

He is because he saw it on a commercial break
And if he doesn't get what he wants then he'll get a headache
Because he needs it, wants it, almost loves it
He's here on his own, on globe alone
Here on his own, on globe alone, here on his own

Dan Abnormal Lyrics - Blur


Meanie Leanie come on down
Come and entertain the town
It's friday night and we're all bored
Times being called there is no more
Times being called it's such a bore

Dan Abnormal not normal at all
It's not his fault we made him this way
He'll imitate you, try to ape you
But it's not his fault Dan watches tv, tv, tv

Meanie Leanie stays up late
Mopes around gets in a state
The killer in your arcade
Shooting gangstas ready made
Cause that is where the future's made

Dan Abnormal not normal at all
It's not his fault we made him this way
He'll imitate you, try to ape you
But it's not his fault Dan watches tv, tv, tv

Dan went to his local burger bar
I want mcnormal and chips
Or I'll blow you to bits
Give us it

It's the miseries at half past three
Watching video nasties
He has dirty dreams when he's asleep
Dan's just like you and me
He's the Meanie Leanie

Dan Abnormal not normal at all
It's not his fault we made him this way
He'll imitate you, try to ape you
But it's not his fault Dan watches tv, tv, tv
Dan Abnormal not normal at all
It's not his fault we made him this way
He'll imitate you, try to ape you
But it's not his fault Dan's as normal as me

Entertain Me Lyrics - Blur

The weekend is back
But so is he
Head to the floodlights
See the fraternity
They're waiting
I hear them up in the north
And down in the south
And all that is spewing
Spewing out of his mouth
Entertain me, entertain me
Entertain me, entertain me

At his and hers dating
Bored minds agree
Requirements to be stated
Replies awaited
She wants a loose fit
He wants instant whip
He guesstimates her arrival
Will she want it really badly
Entertain me, entertain me
Entertain me, entertain me
Entertain me, entertain me

A car, a house both in street
The boredom of the sober week
The weekend is here hip,hip hooray
To make the blues just go away
Entertain me, entertain me
Entertain me, entertain me

Yuko And Hiro Lyrics - Blur


This is my work place
And these are the people I work with
Yuko and hiro
We work together
We work for the company
That works to the future
We work hard to please me
They will protect us

I never see you
We're never together
I'll love you forever

I drink in the evening
It helps with relaxing
I can't sleep without drinking
We drink together
From monday to saturday
I go to my workplace
But on sunday we are together
Yuko and hiro

I never see you, I never see you
We're never together, we're never together

I never see you, I never see you
We're never together, we're never together
I love you forever
