Over & Done With
This is the story of our first teacher
Shetland made her jumpers
And the devil made her features
Threw up her hands when my mum said our names
Embroidered all her stories with slanderous claims
Its over and done with
This is the story of losing my virginity
I held my breath and the bed held a trinity
People Im making no claims to no mystery
But sometimes it feel like
My sex lifes all history
Im not saying these events didnt
Touch our lives in any way
But, ah, they didnt make the impression
That some people say
This is the story of watching a man dying
The subjects unpopular
But I dont feel like lying
When I think of it now I acted like a sinner
I just washed my hands

Hit The Highway
Your way
No way
Do it my way
Or hit the highway
Your way
No way
Do it my way
Or hit the highway
I respect your point of view
Youve got your thoughts
Ive got mine too
But youll be out of here
If I dont hear the words I want to hear
Your way
No way
You do it my way
Or you can hit the highway
Ive watched you
Backsliding
Then theres trouble

Throw The r Away
The proclaimers - throw the r away
Ive been so sad
Since you said my accent was bad
Hes worn a frown
This caledonian clown
Some days I stand
On your green and pleasant land
How dare I show face
When my diction is such a disgrace
Im just going to have to learn to hesitate
To make sure my words
On your saxon ears dont grate
But I wouldnt know a single word to say
If I flattened all the vowels
And threw the r away
You say that if I want to get ahead
The language I use should he left for dead
It doesnt please your ear
And though you tell it like a leg pull
I think your still full of john bull

These Arms Of Mine
These arms of mine
They are lonely
Lonely and feeling blue
These arms of mine
They are yearning
Yearning from wanting you
And if you
Would let them hold you
How grateful I will be
These arms of mine
The are burning
Burning from wanting you
These arms of mine
The are wanting
Wanting to hold you
And if you
Just let them hold you
How grateful I will be
How grateful I will be
Cmon cmon bady

There's A Touch
There's a touch upon my lips
Left by memory's (mary's ?) fingertips
I still hear her voice
When there's no sound
There's a touch upon my skin
Left whenshe went back to him
All the rest has gone
She's not around
When I saw her first
It was lust my friend
Thought it would burn
Then it would end
But I lost my old philosophy
Now I believed in love
Well the months went by and my love grew strong
Thought she felt the same but I was wrong
She held my old philosophy
Now I'm destroyed by love
There's a touch, etc...
Well I still believed that I would win

Sweet Little Girls
Sweet little girls
Cut a swathe through this world
Using skills that they get
From their mothers
Sweet little girls
Might like ribbons and curls
But they most like to torture their brothers
And sweet little girls
Love their friends
'Till it hurts
Or until
They can find them another
Watch their lips, they make a circle like
"Coo coo coo coo"
But the words their saying softly are
Cruel cruel cruel
Sweet little girls
Cut a swathe through this world
Using skills that they get
From their mothers

Misty Blue
When the inspiration is above my station
Thoughts are iqeienchoiy and I let them pass
I tend to view this nation
Through the condensation
On a dirty glass
When the singer solemn was a honnie laddie
When she brushed his hair with a watered comb
Then he could have dandered
And he could have shown ye
Seven hitis like home
If misty eyes can witness love and affection
Why does the heart still resist
What the hell is wrong with you?
Ive got eyes of misty blue
All the things I want to do
Are all I ever wanted to
As the laddic grew and he looked aroung him
At the thugs and rapists in their stolen suits
Louder beat the rhythm of his bloody heart
Telling him to shoot

Don't Give It To Me
Your life is full of misery
Well take something for it
Or try to ignore it, don't give it to me
You trapped me in this corner
You're breathing it over me
Next stop's the Royal Infirmary
The room's started spinning
I'm finding it hard to breath
I think I'll have to leave, I need some air
That little black cloud
That follows you everywhere's
Floating my way and it's raining despair
Now I'm not immune to misery myself
But it's just a bore in somebody else
If you weren't allowed to talk of yourself
You would have nothing to say
Your life if full of misery
Well take something for it
Or try to ignore it, don't give it to me
Your life is full of misery

What Do You Do?
Yes I know youre right
I see it in your fierce eyes
But me Ive never thought straight
Since the day I had the first doubt
Yes I know youre right
And Ill back you to a point pal
But Ill never be constrained
By another mans ideas now
I spent too long on this road
Looking for the answers
But poverty and failure
Arent what Im after
I painted fight on factories
But they closed the factory down pal
I want to find out where the hearts gone
Find out where the nerves gone
What do you do
When democracy fails you
What do you do
When the rest cant see its true?
