Where Flowers Fade - The Lightning Seeds

I’m pushed and pulled and shunted

Man-handled and man-hunted

By those faceless names

You’ve got nine lives

I’ve got eight

I just can’t wait

To lock the door

And throw the keys away

I’ll call as soon as it’s over

Let’s wait until the world is sober

The world is wide

Manhattan chase

Misguided missles spin in space

Feel like a sundial in the shade

Where flowers fade

I feel like the poor relation

Passing through an empty station

On an empty track

I’m half poverty

Half oysters

No morals

Tarnished laurels

Going nowhere fast

You don’t get smoke without a fire

Next time I’ll vote for Billy Liar

The world is wide

Manhattan chase

Misguided missles spin in space

Feel like a sundial in the shade

Where flowers fade

The world is wide

Manhattan chase

Misguided missles spin in space

Feel like a sundial in the shade

Where flowers fade

I hate liars

I hate cheats

Waving flags and saving nations

Goodbye love

Goodbye peace

I hate war

It ruins converstation

I hate liars

I hate cheats

Waving flags and saving nations

Goodbye love

Goodbye peace

I hate war

It ruins converstation

I hate liars

I hate cheats

Goodbye love

I hate liars

I hate cheats

Waving flags and saving nations

Goodbye love

Goodbye peace

I hate war

It ruins converstation

I hate liars

I hate cheats

Waving flags and saving nations

Goodbye love

Goodbye peace

I hate war

It ruins converstation
