lyrics

As the southern sun innocently drops, the eager stars pierce through the lilac twilight and oh we have still got the other coast to go.
Us cats aren’t meant to stray so far, turns out the outskirts aren’t so bad, let’s start to beat a brand new track.
It’s got to be loaded heartbreak though you know that you can’t fake that, if you could would you really want to get away with that, oh oh oh.
I’ve given up the ghost and the spirits, oh but the old pipe nightmares keep me one foot in it all, I’ll tell you something if you promise not to laugh.
I’ve got another bright idea, another fine mess I’m sure, I think that we should start a band and tour.
We’ll call ourselves The Only Hearts Club Band, I knew you’d love that one man, we’ve long divorced ourselves from the silent realm of the overground, oh oh oh.
Oh you know what it’s like but you do it to yourself anyway, that’s addiction for you.
We missed the boat but I don’t mind, I kind like it here, so let’s just stick around and see what happens, famous last words.
I’ve had this tune floating round my brain for 20 years at least I’d say, I can’t remember any of the words or who it’s by, but it goes a little something like - do do do do do.
