Blur Lyrics

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]

Why are the C.I.A. having fun
They think you're clever 'cos you've blown up your lungs

But I love to hear that crazy beat (yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Gets the people dancing on their feet (yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah)
And I love to hear the paradise
I love my brothers on a Saturday night yeah

Crazy beat crazy beat yeah yea [repeat]

I'm on my mobile and I'm talking to the president
I got to get him for the money I've spent
Trying to get him to party with me
And even offered him ecstasy

But I love to hear that crazy beat (yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Gets the people dancing on their feet (yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah)

And I love to hear the paradise
I love that feeling and I love her tonight

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....

single: "Music Is My Radar" (2000)

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

"13" (1999)

Bugman Lyrics - Blur

I am an ex offender
They let me out in the summer
I think I was in a coma
I didn't know what to do
Oh no

You go hang around go round
I'll watch myself hang on
Look out for the Bugman
You go hang around around

Look out for the Bugman

I got no sent of existence

I stay away from the bugs
Oh yeah

Look out for the Bugman
You go hang around around

Look out for the Bugman

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

Swamp Song Lyrics - Blur

Give me good times
Give me sali-va

Stick it my veins
Stick it in my veins

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

B.L.U.R.E.M.I. Lyrics - Blur

Group using a loop
Of another pop group
Group shooting a hoop
And starving it up in to the soup
Cos I'm of regular features
And Adidas trainers
Completing the cycle
Until the teenage maniacs
Can bring it on back

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

I lost my girl to the Rolling Stones

And I can't go back
Let it flow, let it flow

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

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

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

[repeat chorus]

Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah

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

Have my chances

Now stay up nights
Watch TV

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

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

Day Upon Day Lyrics - Blur

Waiting on this empty day
It's just the same as any day
And although I've nothing to say
I'm going to say it anyway

Day, day upon day, day upon day
Day upon day

Everybodies here with me
We're in the smallest room you see
And although we've nothing to do
We've got to do it adieu adieu

Day, day upon day, day upon
Day upon day

Inertia Lyrics - Blur

Fear of being left behind
Can take you over
Suddenly you will choke
Maybe it's just a joke
I'm not sure of you

I can't hear you now
There's to much that's going around
You seem a worried fool
So I don't think I'm cool
Makes me me insure
Of you

Fear of being left alone
Can take you over
Slowly you will choke
And say it's just a joke
I'm not sure
Of you

Luminous Lyrics - Blur

Don't look at me as
Your only regret what you don't see
You know more than I
So think for me
Think what your not

Ah ah ah ah

Love substitute for the
Never knew who you were
Half your life has been explained
You want the oher half

Ah ah ah ah

Don't look at me as though I'm not here
Your only regret what you don't see
Half my life has been explained

Mace Lyrics - Blur

Pedaling on a bicycle
I'm on my way to make a call
I've tried to touch you
Through the double glazing
But the curtains were drawn & the family out the away

You used to know but now you don't [X3]
No one can see when they've got mist in their eyes

They're papering the wall and the windows
No logic here in or out
The heatings on and I'm feeling drowsy
I fall asleep and dream of burning down the house

You used to know but now you don't [X3]
No one can see when they've got mist in their eyes

I'm pedaling on my bicycle
I'm on my way to make a call
The sun is out and I'm feeling drowsy
I fall asleep and dream of burning down the house

You used to know but now you don't [X6]
No one can see when they've got mist in the eyes

Badgeman Brown Lyrics - Blur

This is the voice of someone
Calling from a lonely hill
To the hard of hearing
For those who never will

A long legged someone
Seen walking away from home
Look a vacant dreamer
Walking alone alone

Ways that turn and turn
Which is what we'd learn
As suffering believers
In the book of badgeman brown

They've dropping like flies
In a suburban house
From a lack of anything
Anything to keep their hands in

And the town keeps screaming
From a lonely hill
Another lack of people
Those who never will

Ways that turn and turn
Which I what we'd learn
As suffering believers
In the book of badgeman brown

This is the voice of someone
Calling from a lonely hill
for the heard of hearing
For those who never will

The days will turn and turn
Which is what we'd learn
As average believers
In the book of badgeman brown

Hanging Over Lyrics - Blur

I'm alive and I can breath the air
I can hurt you
I can float up here
so soft and tingling
You can't catch me
I'm floating away

I woke up
And went down next door
I'm getting up with nothing on my mind
I went down the stairs
With a pain in my head
I should have never got out of bed

Then everything shattered
Just at the point that mattered [X2]
Aha

I'm alive I can breath the air
I can hurt you
I can fall down there
Right into you your mind
Don't put it around
You can't catch me
& carried away

I woke up I, woke up every day
There's nothing, nothing to say
Half way down the stairs
I feel a pain in my chest
I should never have got out of bed

Then everything shattered
Just at the point that it mattered [X2]
Aha

I'm alive, I'm can breath the air
I can hurt you
Half way down the stairs
I get a pain in my chest
I should never got out of bed

I should never ever ever
I should never...

Peach Lyrics - Blur Lyrics - Blur

Chemical waste
Best part of the beach
You're always the way you are
What of that going to close you in
You got a gaping hole in your head
I'd let the birds nest there instead
Aha aha aha aha

A gun in your pocket
& hair in a locket
Around you neck
From the girl you once loved
Where's she now, you've gone crazed
You've got a gaping hole in your head
I'd let the birds nest there instead
Aha aha aha aha

You've got a gaping hold in your head
I'd let the birds nest there instead [X4]
Aha aha aha aha

When The Cows Come Home Lyrics - Blur

Good morning
Wake up

Wake up with purpose and polite efficiency
Stuff vitamin pills down your half guarantee
A kiss and cuddle with a lucky girl
You get fed and watered
Makes your hair curl

And when the day draws in
You put on a record
Put on something gentle
And wait for the cows to come home

Wake up a little voice says
Do you eagerly
You mustn't let yourself sink financally
Don't listen to the accusation that you're tight
You could be the first man on your street to get it right

And when the day draws in
You going to go into waltz time
For once it was good time
Wait for the cows to come home

Ha da de da da
Ha da de da da
Ha da de da da
Ha da de da da da

Wake up in porpuse and polite efficiency
So you get fed and watered with good company
And when the day draws in
You go into waltz time
Wait for the cows to come home
All your life

Maggie May Lyrics - Blur

Wake up Maggie
I think I've got something to say toyou
It's late September
And I really should be back at school
I know I keep you amused
But I feel I'm being used
Oh, Maggie I couldn't have tried anymore

You led me away from hme
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart and
That's what really hurts

All I needed was a friend of lend a guiding hand
It's learning to a lover and
Mother what a lover and you wore me out
All you do is wreck my bed
And in the morning kickme in the head
Oh, Maggie I couldn't have tried anymore

You led me away from home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart
I couldn't leave if I tried

I suppose I could collect my books and go back to school
I'll steal my dad's cue
And make a iving out of playing pool
I'll find myself a rock n roll band
That needs a helping hand
Oh, Maggie,I wish I'd never seen you face

You made a first class fool of me
But I'm as blind as a fool can be
You stole my heart
But I love you anyway

Es Schmecht Lyrics - Blur

Looking out for N?1
Conversation, daily routine
It's beautiful, but neurotic
& in the future it will be the same

Looking out for N?1
Conversation, daily routine
It's beautiful, but hypnotic
In the future it will be the same

The same...the same...
In the future it will be the same

Fried Lyrics - Blur

Oh you are so very strange
Sometimes I think you've gone insane
Twisted hearts you've gone insane
In this giddy world
Couldn't you begin to go
Where odd lines we hardly know
Couldn't you put in a goal
Just for me

Did I say I want to know
Talking about a goal
Would you please leave me alone
Can't you see I want to be on my own

Oh, I would like to give you your head
Just to see if you are dead
Oh, I'd like to get into that pretty head
And it would amuse me just to see
How you feel about me
How you feel about always getting fried

Did I say I want to know
We're talking about a goal
Would you please leave alone
Can't you see I want to be on my own
Can't you see I want to be on my own

Oh,I'm going to fly [X3]

Threadneedle Street Lyrics - Blur

The time has come
Not to be cautious
You must be careful no to make mistakes
For every heart flower
In twenty four

An operation froze
Faster than they did yesterday
And the landing right on your side
They won't be much of a problem

Then passed smith
There is a rise
When everybodies asleep at home
He becomes nervous
And sees a change
Today in future

Oh la la oh la la oh la la
Watch the markets move from the screen
In a pocket in a grey flannel suit
Re tomorrow's cash today
And check your pulse

Waste metals crawling to the kerb
And softs dropped in a summer term
Sugars melted in the mouth
Of a broken home
If we knew a better option

She sleeps for while
And it could be long time before he thinks again
And then he looks at the papers and looks again
Today futures

Oh la la oh la la oh la la oh la la

Today futures
Futures futures futures [repeat the fade]

Got Yer! Lyrics - Blur

Okay coming up man
you sad old
He's got a fly between his ears
It catches life
And buzzes in my head

It's a long time, isn't it
Fumes of life

people are bleeding loose in here
Got yer!

Theme From An Imaginary Film Lyrics - Blur

What if I told you I love you
What if I called you in rhythm
In this world there's nothing left
Well nothing that's new

What if I told you without
Loving is simply a lie
Although she moves into the night
Oh, tell me you're mine
Please say it's true

Oh, shame it's over
I was the light and the days of them all
Well push me over
I'm flat on my back but I'm having a ball
And just look whose laughing

What if I flew like a dove dear
What if I would you in rhythm
There's nothing left
Nothing that's good left for me now

Oh,I'll just go and sleep with strangers
I'll live like a lord in a tower
Cos in the city there's too mich air
That I can't dream at night
Well not anymore

Oh, shame it's over
It been such fun and we had a ball
Well push me over
But I'll be the last people to fall
Well just look whose laughing

Oh shame it's over
How like a cow bloated on grass
Well, push me over
Me on my back and you on your arse
Such a shame it's all over
There are so feel days left to grasp
So push me over
We on our back and you on your lazy arse
Well just look whose laughing

Bank Holiday Lyrics - Blur

Grandma has got new dentures
To eat the crust on pizza
Been taken out by her daughter
Because she thought she ought'a
The kids are eating snickers
Because they're so delicious
Then there's sticky f1ngers
And mother looses her knickers

[Chorus]
BANK HOLIDAY COMES SIX TIMES A YEAR
DAYS OF ENJOYMENT TO WHICH EVERYONE CHEERS
BANK HOLIDAY COMES WITH A SIX PACK OF BEER
....THEN ITS BACK TO WORK A.G.A.I.N.

Bar-b-que is cooking
Sausages and chicken
The patio is buzzing
The neighbours they are looking
John is down the fun pub
Drinking lots of lager
Girls and boys are on the game
All the high streets look the same

[Chorus]

back to work A.G.A.I.N.

[Chorus]

End Of The Century Lyrics - Blur

She said there's ants in the carpet
Dirty little monsters
Eating all the morsels
Picking up the rubbish
Give her effervescence
She needs a little sparkle
Good morning tv
You're looking so healthy

[Chorus:]
And we all say
Don't want to be alone
We wear the same clothes
Because we feel the same
And kiss with dry lips
When we say goodnight
End of the century... it's nothing special

Sex on tv
Everybody's at it
And the mind gets dirty
As you get closer to thirty
He gives her a cuddle
They're glowing in a huddle
Good night tv
You're all made up
And you know that

[Chorus]

Can you eat her yes you can

[Chorus]

Parklife Lyrics - Blur

Confidence is a preference for the habitual voyeur of what is known as (parklife)
And morning soup can be avoided if you take a route straight through what is known as
(parklife)
John's got brewers droop he gets intimidated by the dirty pigeons
They love a bit of it (parklife)
Who's that gut lord marching... you should cut down on your porklife mate... get some
Exercise

[Chorus]
ALL THE PEOPLE
SO MANY PEOPLE
THEY ALL GO HAND IN HAND
HAND IN HAND THROUGH THEIR PARKLIFE

Know what I mean
I get up when I want except on Wednesdays when I get rudely awakened by the dustmen
(Parklife)
I put my trousers on, have a cup of tea and I think about leaving the house (parklife)
I feed the pigeons I sometimes feed the sparrows too it gives me a sense of enormous well
Being (parklife)
And then I'm happy for the rest of the day safe in the knowledge there will always be a bit
Of my heart devoted to it (parklife)

[Chorus]

Parklife (parklife)
Parklife (parklife)

It's got nothing to do with vorsprung durch technic you know
And it's not about you joggers who go round and round and round
Parklife (parklife)

[Chorus x 2]

Girls And Boys Lyrics - Blur

Street's like a jungle
So call the police
Following the herd
Down to Greece
On holiday
Love in the 90's
Is paranoid
On sunny beaches
Take your chances looking for

[Chorus]
GIRLS WHO ARE BOYS
WHO LIKE BOYS TO BE GIRLS
WHO DO BOYS LIKE THEY'RE GIRLS
WHO DO GIRLS LIKE THEY'RE BOYS
ALWAYS SHOULD BE SOMEONE YOU REALLY LOVE

Avoiding all work
Because there's none available
Like battery thinkers
Count your thoughts on 1 2 3 4 5 fingers
Nothing is wasted
Only reproduced
Get nasty blisters
Du bist sehr schon
But we haven't been introduced

[Chorus]

Tracy Jacks Lyrics - Blur

(Tracy Jacks) works in civil service
(Tracy Jacks) it's steady employment
(Tracy Jacks) it's a golfing fanatic
(Tracy Jacks) but his put is erratic
(Tracy Jacks) saw a Harley Street doctor
(Tracy Jacks) who prescribed healthy living
(Tracy Jacks) but he's getting past forty
(Tracy Jacks) and all the seams are splitting

EVERYDAY HE GOT CLOSER
HE KNEW IN HIS HEART HE WAS OVER
I'D LOVE TO STAY HERE AND BE NORMAL
BUT IT'S JUST SO OVERRATED

(Tracy Jacks) left home without warning
(Tracy Jacks) at five in the morning
(Tracy Jacks) got on the first train to Walton
(Tracy Jacks) and stood on the seafront
(Tracy Jacks) threw his clothes in the water
(Tracy Jacks) and ran around naked
(Tracy Jacks) got stopped by the police
(Tracy Jacks) and escorted back home

EVERYDAY HE GOT CLOSER
HE KNEW IN HIS HEART HE WAS OVER
I'D LOVE TO STAY HERE AND BE NORMAL
BUT THEN IT'S JUST SO OVERRATED

Tracy Jacks
Tracy Jacks
Tracy Jacks
Tracy Jacks

And then it happened on a Tuesday morning
Tracy Jacks bulldozed down the house he lived in
Saying it's just so overrated
Tracy Jacks
Tracy Jacks
Tracy Jacks
Tracy Jacks

EVERYDAY HE GOT CLOSER
HE KNEW IN HIS HEART HE WAS OVER
I'D LOVE TO STAY HERE AND BE NORMAL
BUT IT WAS ALWAYS OVERRATED

Badhead Lyrics - Blur

So far I've not really stayed in touch
Well you knew as much it's no surprise that today
I'll get up early too from a lack of anything to do

AND I MIGHT AS WELL JUST GRIN AND BEAR IT
BECAUSE IT'S NOT WORTH THE TROUBLE OF AN ARGUMENT

And you have not really stayed in touch
Well I knew as much it's no surprise that today
I get up for round two with nothing to do
Except get a touch of flu

AND I MIGHT AS WELL GRIN AND BEAR IT
BECAUSE IT'S NOT WORTH THE TROUBLE OF AN ARGUMENT
AND IN ANY CASE I'D RATHER WEAR IT
IT'S LIKE A BADHEAD IN THE MORNING

And I know

AND I MIGHT AS WELL GRIN AND BEAR IT
BECAUSE IT'S NOT WORTH THE TROUBLE OF AN ARGUMENT
AND IN ANY CASE I'D RATHER WEAR IT
IT'S LIKE A BADHEAD IN THE MORNING

Far Out Lyrics - Blur

I spy in the night sky don't I
Phoebe io e lara leda callisto sinope
Janus dione portia so many moons
Quiet in the sky at night hot in the milky way
Outside in

Antares aldebaran altair wolf 359

To The End Lyrics - Blur

All those dirty words
They make us look so dumb
Been drinking far too much
And neither of us mean what we say

[Chorus]
WELL YOU AND I
COLLAPSED IN LOVE

MADE IT TO THE END

What happened to us
Soon it will be gone forever
Infatuated only with ourselves
And neither of us can think straight anymore

[Chorus x 2]

A malady has taken him over
Coughing tar in his japanese motor
The lights are magic
And he feels lucky
And he's got money
Shoots like an arrow - oh

LONDON LOVES

Trouble On The Message Centre Lyrics - Blur

I am the message centre
Local and direct
Room to room an operator
No calls today they'll just have to wait dear
I call and I collect
So just strike him softly away from the body

YOU'RE MADE UP TOO SHINY TODAY (IN SO MUCH TROUBLE)
THOUGHTS ARE JUST PISSING AWAY (IN SO MUCH TROUBLE)

I am a manager
I am in control
As the local delegator
No calls today dear they'll just have to wait dear
I offer no guarantee at all
So don't take it lightly you'll put yourself under

YOU'RE MADE UP TOO SHINY TODAY (IN SO MUCH TROUBLE)
THOUGHTS ARE JUST PISSING AWAY (IN SO MUCH TROUBLE)
A NEW TYPE FACE AND NEW DAY (IN SO MUCH TROUBLE)
YOU CAN'T REMEMBER TEN MINUTES AGO (IN SO MUCH TROUBLE)
IT'S TOO MUCH TROUBLE

YOU'RE MADE UP TOO SHINY TODAY (IN SO MUCH TROUBLE)

A NEW TYPE FACE AND NEW DAY (IN SO MUCH TROUBLE)
YOU CAN'T REMEMBER TEN MINUTES AGO (IN SO MUCH TROUBLE)
IT'S TOO MUCH TROUBLE

Clover Over Dover Lyrics - Blur

I'm on the white cliffs of Dover
Thinking it over and over
But if I jump its all over
A cautionary tale for you
I'd like to roll in the clover
With you over and over
On the white cliffs of dover
And then I'd let you push me over

[Chorus]
AND IF THAT IS THE FACT THEN IN ACTUAL FACT IT'S NOT WHERE IT'S AT
AND IT'S OVER
AND IF THAT IS THE FACT THEN IN ACTUAL FACT IT'S NOT WHERE IT'S AT
AND IT'S OVER
YES IT IS

And now the bluebirds are over
Over the white cliffs of dover
So when you push me over
Don't bury me I'm not worth anything

[Chorus]

Magic America Lyrics - Blur

Bill Barret has a simple dream
He calls it his plan B
Buildings in the sky and the air is sugar free
And everyone is very friendly
Plan B arrived on a holiday
Took a cab to the shopping malls
Bought and ate until he could do neither anymore
Then found love on channel 44

[Chorus]
LA LA LA LA LA HE WANTS TO GO TO MAGIC AMERICA
LA LA LA LA LA HE'D LIKE TO LIVE IN MAGIC AMERICA
WITH ALL THE MAGIC PEOPLE

Bill Barrett sent his postcards home
To everyone he'd ever known they read
Fifty nine cents gets you a good square meal
From the people who care how you feel

[Chorus x 2]

With all the magic people [fade to end]

This Is A Low Lyrics - Blur

And into the sea goes pretty England and me
Around the Bay of Biscay and back for tea
Hit traffic on the dogger bank
Up the Thames to find a taxi rank
Sail on by with the tide and go asleep
And the radio says

[Chorus]
THIS IS A LOW
BUT IT WON'T HURT YOU
WHEN YOU ARE ALONE IT WILL BE THERE WITH YOU
FINDING WAYS TO STAY SOLO

On the Tyne forth and Cramity
There's a low in the high forties
And Saturday's locked away on the pier
Not fast enough dear
On the Malin head, Blackpool looks blue and red
And the Queen, she's gone round the bend
Jumped off Land's End
And the radio says

[Chorus x 3]

THEY'VE BEEN PUTTING THE HOLES IN, YES YES
IT'S BEEN A HELL OF A DO
THEY'VE BEEN PUTTING THE HOLES IN, YES YES

ACROSS THE STREET AT THE EXHIBITIONIST
THESE TOWNIES THEY NEVER SPEAK TO YOU
JUST STICK TOGETHER SO THEY NEVER GET LONELY
FEELING LEAD, FEELING QUITE LIGHT-HEADED
HAD TO SIT DOWN AND HAVE SOME SUGARY TEA
IN CHEMICAL WORLD, IN A CHEMICAL WORLD IT'S VERY, VERY, VERY,
CHEAP.

AND MOTHER'S PRIDE IS YOU EPITHET, THAT EXTRA SLICE YOU WILL SOON
REGRET

AND SO THE WHOLE WORLD WILL BE ALRIGHT

Villa Rosie Lyrics –Blur

PRACTISE DOESN'T MAKE PERFECT WHEN YOU'RE INTERBREEDING
SPEAKING DRIVEL CAN IT GET CONFUSED WITH HEAVY BREATHING
MIXING DRINKS AT WATER HOLES GET SNARLED UP IN THE SUBURBS
MEANDERING THROUGH THIS AND THAT YOU ARE SUSPECTED OF VAGUENESS

WHEN WORK IS DONE, GO TO VILLA ROSIE EVERY NIGHT (WE'RE WAITING)
SO FORM A QUEUE AT VILLA ROSIE EVERY NIGHT (SO TASTY)

ACROSS THE COMMON EVERY DAY YOU COME ACROSS THE FINE LINE
BUT WEARING BOOTS CAN PREVENT THE LEECHES IN THE LONG GRASS
EATING BETWEEN MEALS STIFLES THE APPETITE IS IT HEALTHY
COMING HOME THAT NAGGING DOUBT THERE IN YOUR BELLY

AND ALL THE WHILE AT VILLA ROSIE EVERY NIGHT (WE'RE TASTING)
A SWEETER LIFE AT VILLA ROSIE EVERY NIGHT (SO TASTY)
ALL LOOSERS COME TO VILLA ROSIE EVERY NIGHT (WE'RE WAITING)
SO FORM A QUEUE AT VILLA ROSIE EVERY NIGHT (SO TASTY)

DON'T BREAK YOUR BACK AT VILLA ROSIE EVERY NIGHT (WE'RE TASTING)
A SWEETER LIFE AT VILLA ROSIE EVERY NIGHT (SO TASTY)

THERE'S NO SELF CONTROL LEFT IN ME
WHAT WAS NOT WILL NEVER BE

A FERVORED IMAGE OF ANOTHER WORLD
IS NOTHING IN PARICULAR NOW
AND IMITATION COMES NATURALLY
BUT I NEVER REALLY STOP TO THINK HOW

A CHROME COVERED CLONE AMI
SO IN THE ABSENCE OF A WAY OF LIFE
JUST REPEAT THIS AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN

[CHORUS]
HEY HEY COME OUT TONIGHT
HEY HEY COME OUT TONIGHT
POPSCENE

I'M LEAVING TOWN TO RUN AWAY
RUN INTO YOUR TWISTED ARMS
NO QUEUES AND THERE'S NO PANIC THERE

MY LACK OF NATURAL LUSTRE NOW
SEEMS TO BE LOOSING ME FRIENDS
SO IN THE ABSENCE OF A WAY OF LIFE
I'LL REPEAT THIS AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN

AND I'M RESIGNED TO THAT
I'LL FORGET TO BREATHE SOMEDAY
I'VE NEVER STOPPED TO THINK WHY

Bang Lyrics –Blur

Sitting in a SDT
Waiting for an undreground trail
To rumble underneath my teeth
Bang goes another day
Where it went I could not say
Now I'll have to wait another week
Where all is said and all is done
What was said was never done
Don't panic
It's not really worth your while
Bang goes another day
In and out of one ear
Everybody's doing it so do it too

[chorus]
I don't need anyone
But a little love
Would make things better

Siiting on the early bus
Passing through the morning rush
It makes no difference
That I'm not with you
Bang goes another year
In and out of one ear
Everybody's doing it
I'll do it too

[Repeat chorus]

Slow Down Lyrics –Blur

It's up to you
You know it is
I can't convince you
All you have to do is
Slow Down
I've always said
It will never change
All you have to do
Just to be you
I think that's all I want to say
All these things
That I told you
I didn't mean at all
I'd forget you
So if you come here
If you come here
All you have to do
Just you be you
I think that's all I need to say to you

Repetition Lyrics –Blur

So sure,so sure you are
Nothing can,touch you know
I need to know
But you're forgetting me now
Slow down,don't be so
Eager to let me go
Realie it could change you
It could change your mind

[Chorus]
Try, try, try
All things remain the same
So why try again?

Bad Day Lyrics –Blur

Do you do anything you ever do

You ever loved
Yes,she said

There's No Other Way Lyrics –Blur

You're taking the fun
Out of everything
Making me run
When I don't want to think
You're taking the fun
Out of everything
I don't want to think at all

[Chorus]
There's no other way
There's no other way
All that you can do
Is watch them play

You're taking the fun
Out of everything
You're making it clear
When I don't want to think
You're taking me up
When I don't want to go up anymore
I'm just watching it all

Fool Lyrics –Blur

Sorry but I don't understand
The things you say
They make no sense at all
Funny,I but think you meant them all
This time,don't you?
I know that you think I'm a fool
But couldn't you try
To forgive a fool
One more time
Sorry but I'm not really listening
I've got my mind on something else
Sometimes I wonder if i'm here
If I'm here at all
I know that you want me to go,don't you?
But it's not as easy as it seems
I know that you think
I'm not here at all but
I'm just as fed up as you
I know that you want to leave me
I'm amazed at how cold you can be
Well,may my weak and insipid soul
Grow stronger in your absence

Come Together Lyrics –Blur

I don't understand
You're walking over me
All over me,to you
Well you must be mad
And you know you are
You should have known
I'd do anything for you

[chorus]
So why,why
Can't we come together?why

Inside my head
It's all been taken out
By you and do I care
Well you know I do
You should have known
I'd do anything for you

[repeat chorus]

Now it's all been said
And you know it all
Then you should have known
I'd do anything for you
For you
