Текст песни:
Any day now how′s about getting out of this place. Any ways.
Got a lot of spare time. Some of my youth and all of my senses on overdrive.
What′s got into me? Can′t believe myself!
Must be someone else. Must be.
Don′t play Coltrane you will sleep at the wheel
@ Elbow
Текст песни:
A friend of mine grows his very own brambles
They twist all around him ′til he can′t move
Beautiful, quivering, chivalrous shambles
What is my friend trying to prove?
The bruise turns a tall, gentle boy to a terrible totem
And the kids gather round trying to see what′s inside
I think when he′s drinking he′s drowning some riot
What is my friend trying to hide?
Cause it′s breaking my heart, it′s breaking my heart
And it′s breaking my heart to pull out the rain
Brother of mine, don′t run with those fuckers
When will my friend start singing again?
When will my friend start singing again?
@ Elbow
Текст песни:
Come as you are sweetheart, come as you are.
You know you′ve got nothing to prove
I′ll put you to bed you can let it all go
You′ve been playing too rough lately
You burn too bright
You live too fast
This can′t go on too long
You′re a tragedy starting to happen
Just as you are. Perfect just as your are
I′ll give you the time you deserve.
Don′t make those promises
Don′t tell me again.
@ Elbow
Текст песни:
How dare the premier ignore my invitations
He′ll have to go
So to the bunchy luncheons
with it′s second on my list of things to do
At the top I′m stopping by
Your place of work and acting like
I haven′t dreamed of you and I
And marriage in an orange grove
You are the only thing in any room you′re ever in
I′m stubborn, selfish and too old.
I sat you down and told you how
the truest love that′s ever found
Is for oneself
You pulled apart my theory
With a weary and disinterested sigh
So yes I guess I′m asking you
To back a horse that′s good for glue
And nothing else
But find a man that′s truer than,
Find a man that needs you more than I
Sit with me a while
And let me listen to you talk about
your dreams and your obsessions
I′ll be quiet and confessional
The violets explode inside me
when I meet your eyes
Then I′m spinning and I′m diving
Like a cloud of starlings
Darling is this love?
@ Elbow
Текст песни:
Sweet Jesus I′m on fire
She has the sweetest, darkest eyes
And when it comes into her eyes
I know iron and steel couldn′t hold me
But god I′m easy bruised
But so often a moth to her flame
And the things that she′s asked me to do
Would see a senior saint
forgetting his name
I have an audience with the pope
And I′m saving the world at 8
But if she says she needs me, she says she needs me
Everybody′s gonna have to wait
Where could she be?
Was that a minute or an hour?
Where could she be?
She turns the hours into days.
Kill me phone, cover the cage
And wait for the doorbell to ring
Where could she be?
No she won′t come running
Where could she be?
The world is turning at her pace.
Kill me phone, cover the cage
And wait for the doorbell to ring
I have an audience with the pope
And I′m saving the world at 8
But if she says she needs me, she says she needs me
Everybody′s gonna have to wait
@ Elbow
Текст песни:
The fix is in
There′s a nag on the dank at Epsom
The fix is in
Can′t wait to see how it upsets ′em
Too many times we′ve been postally pipped
We′ve loaded the saddled, the mickeys are slipped
We′re swapping the turf for the sand and the surf and the sin
Cause the fix, the fix is in
The fix is in
The odds that I got were delicious
The fix is in
The jockey is cocky and vicious
The redoubtable beast has had pegasus pills
We′ll buy him the patch in the Tuscany hills
And the Vino di Vici will flow like a river in spring
Now the fix, the fix is in
The fix is in
The snaps of the steward so candid
The fix is in
Yes, our pigeons have finally landed
The Donahue sisters will meet us in France
In penguins and pearls, we′ll drink and we′ll dance
′Til the end of our days, cause it ain′t left to chance
That we win
Cause the fix, the fix is in
@ Elbow
Текст песни:
Were you crushed
Did I rush you
All my time is yours
My twisted heart is yours
The faithless shit is yours
The shameless fits of love that only smother you for moments
Until I fold them up and leave
All yours
(chorus)
Oh you had to ask didn′t you (x2)
Oh you had to know
Show your scars
Not to rush you
The hieroglyphic hints in all the toilet scrawl
Guilty little pins
And all the things I never talk about
Are spilling with the gin
Test how tough you are
All yours
(chorus)
Not to rush you
@ Elbow
Текст песни:
So I′m there
Charging around with a juggernaut brow
Overdrive, speeches and deadlines to make
Cramming commitments like cats in a sack
Telephone burn and a purposeful gait
When out of a doorway the tentacles stretch
Of a song that I know
And the world moves in slow-mo
Straight to my head
like the first cigarette of the day
And it′s you, and it′s May
And we′re sleeping through the day
And I′m five years ago
And three thousand miles away
Do I have
time? A man of my calibre
Stood in the street like a sleepwalking teenager
No.
And I dealt with this years ago
I took a hammer to every memento
But image on image like beads on a rosary
pulled through my head as the music takes hold
and the sickener hits; I can work till I break
but I love the bones of you
That, I will never escape
And it′s you, and it′s May
And we′re sleeping through the day
And I′m five years ago
And three thousand miles away
And I can′t move my arm
Through the fear that you will wake
And I′m five years ago
And three thousand miles away
@ Elbow
Текст песни:
You′re a girl in this vicinity
I′m a dog without a collar on
This cattle-market cabaret
Is the Sabbath every Saturday
I′m full of wit and chivalry
Until you′ve given in to me
I′m a dog without a collar on
You′re a girl in this vicinity
Bitten by the tail-fly
Too many times to change
It′s a silent taxi ride away
But it′s everything to get you there
You′ll know when you are bitten-shy
But still you will return my stare
From a crush of blushing brides-to-be
You barely have a blossom on
Your eyes betray your diaries
I′m a dog without a collar on
I′ll take you home
Get you on your own
Sweetness, don′t be bashful
@ Elbow
Текст песни:
Gotta get out of TV
Just pick a point and go
The ticker-tape tangles my feet
As I search for a face that I know
Come on, tower crane driver
There′s not so far to go
I must have been working the ropes
When your hand slipped from mine
No I live off the mirrors and smoke
It′s a joke, a fix, a lie
Come on, tower crane driver
Oh so far to throw
Send up a prayer in my name
Just the same
They say I′m on top of my game
_______________
Send up a prayer in my name
@ Elbow
Текст песни:
Found a hole and slipped on through
Kissed the stone and learnt the lines
Jumped the cue all the time forgetting you
Best dishevelled lover 3yrs running
Coming second to
A picket fence white 9-5 whos
Just alive
Beyond repair, there is nothing to say
Save some fading regrets
Yet I can′t be without this
I want you to be around.
Spit-shone lies, juggled debts
Planted flags and made regrets.
Muddled through all the time
Forgetting you
Cut your teeth and breezed on to
another brothers fickle ways
So why amazed when it don′t
Come/turn out your way
@ Elbow
Текст песни:
Are we having the time of our life?
Are we having the time of our lives?
Are we coming across clear?
Are we coming across fine?
Are we part of the plan here?
Are we having the time of our lives?
Are we coming across clear?
Are we coming across fine?
Are we having the time of our lives?
Are we part of the plan here?
We have the drive and time on our hands
One little room and the biggest of plans.
The days were shaping up,
Frosty and bright.
Perfect weather to fly.
Perfect weather to fly.
Pounding the streets where my fathers feet still
Ring from the walls,
we′d sing in the doorways,
or bicker and row
Just figuring how we were wired inside
Perfect weather to fly.
So in looking to stray from the line
we decided instead
we should pull out the thread that was
stitching us into this tapestry vile,
And why wouldn′t you try?
Perfect weather to fly.
We have the drive and time on our hands
One little room and the biggest of plans.
The days were shaping up,
Frosty and bright.
Perfect weather to fly.
Perfect weather to fly.
Pounding the streets where my fathers feet still
Ring from the walls,
we′d sing in the doorways,
or bicker and row
Just figuring how we were wired inside
Perfect weather to fly.
So in looking to stray from the line
we decided instead
we should pull out the thread that was
stitching us into this tapestry vile,
And why wouldn′t you try?
Perfect weather to fly.

Текст песни:
Don′t mix your drinks
Don′t mix with him.
It will kill you one day.
Good advice. Sound advice.
You need to be like him, like me.
Look what you could achieve.
I′m coming cap-in-hand.
Begging you to listen
Something draws me in!
I just can′t christen it.
@ Elbow
Текст песни:
Before leaving get to the bar
No one round here makes you pay
Never very good at goodbyes
So gentle shoulder charge....
Love you mate.
Love you mate.
Salford sky like gloom
Always you
Could fly round any corner
But til you do....
Love you mate.
@ Elbow
Текст песни:
Mondays is for drinking to the seldom seen kid
I′ve been working on a cocktail called "Grounds For Divorce"
Whoah
Polishing a compass that I hold in my sleeve
Whoah
Down comes him on sticks but then he kicks like a horse
Whoah
There′s a Chinese cigarette case and the rest you can keep
and the rest you can keep
and the rest you can keep
There′s a hole in my neighborhood
down which of late I cannot help but fall
There′s a hole in my neighborhood
down which of late I cannot help but fall
Mondays is for drinking to the seldom seen kid
There′s this whispering of jokers doing "Flesh by the Pound"
To a chorus of supporters from the little town halls
There′ll be twisted karaoke at the Aniseed Lounge
And I′ll bring you further roses but it does you no good
and it does me no good
and it does you no good
There′s a hole in my neighborhood
down which of late I cannot help but fall
There′s a hole in my neighborhood
down which of late I cannot help but fall
There′s a hole in my neighborhood
down which of late I cannot help but fall
There′s a hole in my neighborhood
down which of late I cannot help but fall
Someday we′ll be drinking with the seldom seen kid
@ Elbow
Текст песни:
The whole towns slippin down a hill.
Like the spine of something dead.
Slide in shadow cobble-creep.
Burn your mark and leave.
The trench conventions yellow eyes
Follow her the local flower
The girls a priest (to me at least)
Since baptism peroxide.
And fear is not respect. Correct.
But it′s the best you′re gonna get
Sharp blow to the bridge of the nose
