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
