Formed a band
We formed a band Look at us We formed a band (x4) Honey pie, I don't know when it started Just stop buying your albums from the supermarkets They only sell things that have charted And Art Brut? Well we've only just started And yes, this is my singing voice It's not irony And it's not rock and roll I'm just talking To the kids Formed a band We formed a band Look at us We formed a band (x4) I want to be the boy The man Who writes the song That makes Israel and Palestine Get along I'm gonna write a song As universal as Happy Birthday That's gonna make sure That everybody knows That everything's gonna be ok I'm gonna take that song And we're gonna play it Eight weeks in a row on Top of the Pops Formed a band We formed a band Look at us We formed a band (x4) Dye your hair black Never look back My past is my business |

My little brother just discovered rock and roll
My little brother just discovered rock and roll My little brother just discovered rock and roll There's a noise in his head, and he's out of control And yes it frustrates! Let's let him make his own mistakes See him on the dance floor, watch him go now Boy those moves, I just don't know how My little brother just discovered rock and roll My little brother just discovered rock and roll My little brother just discovered rock and roll He's only 22 and he's out of control How's he living? With all of that unforgiving See him on the dance floor, watch him go now Boy those moves, I just don't know how My little brother just discovered rock and roll My little brother just discovered rock and roll My little brother just discovered rock and roll There's a noise in his head, and he's out of control He no longer likes A-sides He made me a tape, of bootlegs and B-sides And every song on that tape, every single song says Oh why don't our parents worry about us? All we ever want, is for our parents to worry about us There isn't anybody he really wants My little brother just discovered rock and roll My little brother just discovered rock and roll My little brother just discovered rock and roll My little brother just discovered rock and roll! Stay off, the crack! |

I was your boyfriend when we were fifteen
It's the happiest that I've ever been Even though we didn't understand How to do much more than just hold hands There's so much about you I miss The clumsy way we used to kiss I wish I convinced you, you've made a mistake If memory serves, we're still on a break Other girls went and other girls came I can't get over my old flame I'm still in love with Emily Kane Every girl that I've seen since Looks just like you when I squint I know you said it's for the best I still don't understand why you left So much about you I miss Everytime I see a couple kiss I hope this song finds you fame I want school kids on buses singing your name Other girls went and other girls came I can't get over my old flame I'm still in love with Emily Kane I don't even know where she lives I've not seen her in ten years Nine months, three weeks, four days Six hours, thirteen minutes, five seconds Other girls went and other girls came I can't get over my old flame All my friends think I'm insane I'm still in love with Emily Kane There's a beast in my soul that can't be tamed I'm still in love with Emily Kane I thought I'd never love again I'm still in love with Emily Kane The torch that I hold, is always a-flame I'm still in love with Emily Kane I hope this song finds you fame I want school kids on buses singing your name All my friends think I'm insane I'm still in love with Emily Kane Emily Kane, Emily Kane, Emily Kane! |

I know I can
I know I can I know I can I know I can I know I can I know I can I know I can I know I can It doesn't mean that I don't love you, one more try with me above you. It's got nothing to do with anything I've had to drink. It's more to do with the way I think. Leave the light on, leave the light on, leave the light on for me Leave the light on, leave the light on, leave the light on for me I know I can I know I can I know I can I know I can I know I can I know I can I know I can I know I can I know I can I know I can I know I can I know I can I know I can I know I can I know I can I know I can I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, can I get you a cup of coffee? Don't tell your friends, don't tell your friends, I promise it wont ever happen again. Leave the light on, leave the light on, leave the light on for me. It's frustrating for you, well it's frustrating for me. You're lying there and you're beautiful. You're beautiful and of course I want to, why wouldn't I? It doesn't mean, I don't love you, one more try with me above you. Leave the light on, leave the light on, leave the light on for me. It's nothing to do with anything I've had to drink. There's something wrong with the way I think. I know I can, I know I can. I'm fine when I am with my own hand. Never use my Rusted gun of Milan. |

Modern art
Makes me Want to rock out (x4) So I'm in the Tate And I'm looking at Hockney And oh sweet Jesus There's something about that blue It touches me deep inside Amazes me when I step outside I'm sweating I'm sweating I'm beginning to palpitate I can't help myself I just can't help myself Modern art Makes me Want to rock out (x4) So I'm in the Pompidou In Paris And they're more laid back about their art galleries There's little children running around I see a piece on Matisse Take three steps back Take a long run up And I jump at it! Modern art Makes me Want to rock out (x4) |

First time I saw her
I wanted to do more than just hold her I wanted to bend her and fold her So I lent over and I told her Got myself a brand new girlfriend Got myself a brand new girlfriend Phones ringing all weekend Got myself a brand new girlfriend We want to be lapsed catholics We've got the contraception But we haven't got the knack yet Got myself a brand new girlfriend Got myself a brand new girlfriend So many messages to send Got myself a brand new girlfriend So we went to the cinema We came home from the cinema We went through the front door Up the stairs Through her bedroom door Onto the bedroom floor I've seen her naked twice! I've seen her naked twice! Brand new girlfriend Brand new girlfriend Brand new girlfriend Got myself a brand new girlfriend So many messages to send Phones ringing all weekend Got myself a brand new girlfriend Got myself a brand new girlfriend And I think that I love her |

Don't know what genre we belong Haven't read the NME in so long Don't know what genre we belong Popular culture no longer applies to me Popular culture no longer applies to me Popular culture no longer applies to me Popular culture no longer applies to me It's tough at the top The fashionista Text in Topshop Text in Topshop Sometimes it's hard to stop When your heart is set on Top of the Pops Top of the Pops Haven't read the NME in so long Don't know what genre we belong Haven't read the NME in so long Don't know what genre we belong Popular culture no longer applies to me Popular culture no longer applies to me Popular culture no longer applies to me Popular culture no longer applies to me It's tough at the top The fashionista Text in Topshop Text in Topshop Sometimes it's hard to stop When your heart is set on Top of the Pops Top of the Pops I've saved up so much money to spend All I could afford is a bad weekend And there's no reason to stay in There's nothing on the television Popular culture no longer applies to me Popular culture no longer applies to me Popular culture no longer applies to me Popular culture no longer applies to me |

I thought my resolve was too hard to be broken,
It's easy to pretend that you were just joking There's no need to see plans through to fruition Especially if, you've guessed the conclusion Some of us want to go back to our families, stand down with Enrique Gatti Some of us want to go back to our families, stand down with Enrique Gatti A right to advise, advice for the wise, there's no shame in, Giving in. I'm delighted to have found If it's too heavy, you can, just put it down The bravest decision, you ever make Is admitting that, you made a mistake Some of us want to go back to our families, stand down with Enrique Gatti Some of us want to go back to our families, stand down with Enrique Gatti A right to advise, advice if you're wise, there's no shame in, Giving in. Stand down, stand down, stand down, stand down It's not a lack of determination, it's more heroic resignation Some of us want to go back to our families, stand down with Enrique Gatti Some of us want to go back to our families, stand down with Enrique Gatti I've no right to advise, advice if you're wise, there's no shame in, Giving up. |

Sitting in my bedroom
With my keyboard guitar Writing pretty songs about renaming the stars I don't like to stay in, I'm easily bored I go and tell the newborns in the maternity ward: Everything's gonna be alright Everything's gonna be alright (Go home and tell your parents) Everything's gonna be alright Everything's gonna be alright I hope Everything's gonna be alright Everything's gonna be alright (Right now we're tired and we're emotional, but it's gonna be alright) Everything's gonna be alright Everything's gonna be alright I promise |

Lying on the dining room floor
Being warmed through the patio door Just waiting, waiting for my dad I found a note last night From my brother down the back of the cupboard Just saying "Dear God please, make him turn up" And eventually he does And we perhaps go to the cinema Or visit our grandparents But we're almost always home by six o'clock And the strangest thing of all The thing that felt the most wrong Is that, in their separate cars, They were both still playing the same song Last night I heard you screaming Loud voices beyond the wall Another sleepness night for me It does no good to call the police Always come home if they come at all |

We just kissed and that's about it
I fell asleep, she had to do without it That's the way it sometimes goes Under the covers but in yesterday's clothes Whilst you were asleep Me, pins and needles You were asleep Me, other people Rubbing ourselves together We were bound to lose that feeling Rubbing ourselves together Staring at the ceiling I wonder if she suspects Who sent me that last text Or that I'm speaking loudly Waiting for my phone to stop vibrating Whilst you were asleep Me, pins and needles I was asleep With other people Rubbing ourselves together We were bound to lose our feeling I still can't believe how fast our hearts were beating Rubbing ourselves together We were bound to lose our feeling I still can't believe how fast our hearts were beating Here's the truth, We just kissed and that's about it I fell asleep, she had to do without it That's the way it sometimes goes Under the covers but in yesterday's clothes It was sleep that stopped me cheating, not the way you got my heart beating Rubbing ourselves together We were bound to lose our feeling I still can't believe how fast my heart were beating I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry I've lost that loving feeling, We've lost that loving feeling, Gone |

Letters of consent under the bed in a heart shaped box
Cinema tickets mixed in with dirty socks Half written postcards to, I can't remember who I've so many things left over I don't know where they should go It's not a mess, It's personal Like the home altars of Mexico It's hard just opening my bedroom door All my memories, spread out across the floor A napkin from that meal we shared the other night Lollypop sticks and Lego bricks A broken 7 inch, I'll never play Travel cards from a sunny day Why can't I throw these things away? I've so many things left over I don't know where they should go It's not a mess, It's personal Like the home altars of Mexico |
