One From The Modern

Mother and Stan don't blame yourself for Rose
She was out there playing in the road
Better to let her know not to forget
All that schooling goes right through their heads

They take back all
And/When you give them loving
Fall you to your knees
Then give back nothing
But looking through love
You know there's something... so real

Father and Son you're in this one so deep
I could always lull myself to sleep
But I will cry to let you always know
All my life I need your time to grow

(Repeat chorus x3)

If anyone rises at 6.31
And fakes all day that
They're having their fun
They never did get it right
Since they got it so low

To anyone drinking the morning away
The afternoon will prove a mistake
They never will get it right
Now they've got it so low

And we laugh and we drink
And we teach ourselves not to think
(And we find it hard not to think)
We never did get it right
Since we got it so low

To all the faces that
Freeze for you there
In your memory when you try not to care
They never disappear down the slow road

For all of those people
Who bleed by the side
And split from their tongues
And sharpen their knives
They never will get a life now
They've got it so low

(Repeat chorus)

Cornfields and pig-tails and
Fish in the stream
The night that the boys stole
A billion dollar dream
From the high jinx school
For girls down the road

Stories are smoke trails
And some may be true
You're listening to me
But I'm talking to you
I hope you never fall from grace
If you get it so low

(Repeat chorus x2)

You're a southern man
You're a northern soul
You're a west-ender
You got eastern soul
But you're no-one at all

You're a rich man
You're a poor man
You're a this man
Then you're that man
But you're no-one at all

You're a liar
You're a winner
And expert and a beginner
But you're no-one at all

When the wind blows
That's when you know
That your nose grows
And your face shows
That you're no-one at all

You're a hard rock
With your own space
You're a disgrace
But you've got your grace
But you're no-one at all

You're a hard space
But you get things done
If the day is lost
Then the night is won
But you're no-one at all

You're a loner and
You're an only one
You're a red man
Then you're a blue man
But you're no-one at all

Jane she got excavated
By a trader dealing in old lines
Then she got a paper
From a mailer telling her more lies

Chorus (sing first half on first chorus):
So here we go
Down an endless road where we know
Nothing good here will ever grow
We're wasting our own time
And better know
Everyday life will carry on
Everyday when you're not so strong
You're wasting your own time

Says she knows more than she lets on
That's how she gets on when she is outside
When the wind comes on harder
She needs a shelter of their warm lies

(Repeat chorus)

She was taken last Sunday
To a safe place dealing in this line
Then she got her papers
From a faceless who won't tell her one more time

We're gonna take it step by step
Little by little, that's all
And a though it may be a long time
If you and I'm strong, that's all

Winter froze us like a blue Monday
So you and I we battened our defences overnight
Come the spring and I'll be on the road then
I just hope that you'll have got a hold on feeling all right

You and I should sail out on the water
And you and I should do just what we ought to
Some time soon
Come the autumn we'll be getting home by
The light is thin that I'll be holding you by
Not too soon

Winter chills us like a bloody Sunday
But you and I have loosened our defences overnight
Come the spring and I'll be don't know where then
But I know that you'll have had a load of feeling all right

All the people under broken homes
Don't wanna fight no more
All the people nursing shattered bones
Don't wanna fight no more
But there's no profit in peace
So we've gotta fight some more

And all those who are in foreign lands
Don't wanna fight no more
And all those who lost their feet or hands
Don't wanna fight no more
But there's no profit in peace boys
We've gotta fight some more

Hey, we don't wanna fight no more
Hey, hey, hey, we don't wanna fight no more
But there's no profit in peace boys
We gotta fight some more

And all those just trying to play their part
Don't wanna fight no more
And all those who own a human heart
Don't wanna fight no more
But there's no profit in what you want
So we must fight some more

And all those who got an axe to grind
Don't wanna fight no more
And all those who got their burning lights
Don't wanna fight no more
But there's no profit in ever being right
So we must fight some more

(Repeat chorus)

And all the people under broken homes
Don't wanna fight no more
And all the people never going home
Don't wanna fight no more
There is profit in the land you own
So we must fight some more

And all those who got a tired face
Don't wanna fight no more
And all those who lost without a trace
Don't wanna fight no more
But there is profit in the love of hate
So we must fight some more

(Repeat chorus)

Hey, hey, hey, we don't wanna fight no more...
