How long did it take to come up with this? Why should we pay for all your fuck ups? We’re not addicted to your world Times are tough, there’s no one left to blame To tell the truth, it’s all the same to us To tell the truth, nothing good will come from this We’ll struggle on, it’s up to us Lush is cheap, we stay for second orders Talk is cheap, let’s have a lush Times are tough, there’s no one left to blame Talk is cheap, let’s all have a lush

Waiting to see What time holds for me? No guarantees A minefield of uncertainty Why does everything it always have to change? How come sometimes some things can’t stay the same? Time don’t wait for no man All that remains Is history, regrets and the mistakes Nothing lost, nothing gained No regrets have been framed One man’s poison, another’s way out Why did you leave it all up to me? When I wait things go wrong Heart skips a beat, mind follows suit Fuck thinking about what was I’ll stick my neck out and Welcome change with open arms Wait and see Lost time, gained piece of mind None of this was a lie

Lights 03:16
The lights are gone dim Darkness is invading Sense of direction is failing Frustration has me in her aim How can I return to the place Before the switch went off? The place where just a miniscule of light Has fed my weary mind and body Memories remain Time won’t heal the pain Thoughts go on and on for so long No resolution Lost in confusion Hope prolongs my will to be strong Aid to the spirit That endures my fight My being needs to return To return to the light

Indfifferent 03:13
She has no second chances A life of give not take We’ve all agreed that we were wrong How long does it take? Whose choice is this? Drag your heels, find others to blame A headline for a week Forgotten the next day And all you do is pray Whose choice is this? How much difference does it make? What difference does it make?

I think I’ve lost the plot Walkin’ away was easy Not until my mind closed in did I realise What was wrong What had gone Doors never closed on friends Never will Is this it? Think I lost the plot I’m doing what they say Never thought I’d be the one To bow to every word This is wrong This is wrong I should have known I never had a plan It’s all worked out so far This will have to

A Cut Above 03:34
Happy in your cage Safety of the life you’ve made Swallow all your thought You think it makes you smart You think it Think it makes you Do you think it makes you a cut above? The master plan To be a bigger man It just makes you blind You’ve left your life behind So how goes your master plan Are you still the bigger man Do you think that somethings changed? You’re still in your fucking cage!
7.
Punk Floyd 01:48
It’s the same three chords So fuckin’ what? We don’t have the answers We just have the craic I can’t hear you I love this song I hate Pink Floyd Where did I go wrong? You sewed a pocket Onto your jacket To carry around there albums YOU FUCKIN’ CLEM!
