Atlas of the World

Cover Buy on iTunes | | | | 0 comments

B-side for the Fishing For A Dream single. Released in 2005.

I lay breathless
Under the weight of the sky
I snaked and laddered
Crossing rivers in my eye
I’d escaped yes
The wrestlers and jesters inside
I was restless
To be still here for a while

Don’t be so cruel man
I try not to be
Don’t be so cruel man
Some day you’ll see

Deeper dingy
Dwelling technicians
Black and white
Table superstitions
Perfect played chords
On every one day two
But I’ve got an atlas of the world in my room

Don’t be so cruel man
I try not to be
Don’t be so cruel man
Some day you’ll see

Don’t be so cruel man
I try not to be
Don’t be so cruel man
Some day you’ll see

Don’t be so cruel man
I try not to be
Don’t be so cruel man
Some day you’ll see

    Two black lineS SCREAMING NOW like a GARDEN line.
    Put one foot on the road now where the SUNBEAMS are driving,
    With the WD-40 YEAH
    screeching little brakes complain.

    With MY briefcase empty and the holes in my shoes,
    I try to stay friendly for the SHIMMERY ABLUE.
    So tell my secretary now to hold ONTO my calls,
    I believe I can hear through these walls.

    Oh please save me, save me from myself.
    I can’t be the only one stuck on the shelf.
    You said you’d always fall for the underdog.

    Well I’ve been dreaming of jetstreams and kicking up dust,
    MMMMMMMMMMM DONE THE LUST
    And with THE MM number 9 ticked off OF my mind,
    Oh can you hear me screaming out now through the telephone line.

    Oh please save me, save me from myself.
    I can’t be the only one stuck on the shelf.
    You said you’d always fall for the underdog

    Save me
    Save me
    Save me
    Save me

    I MEAN I’M NOT GOING TO DISS MY LYRICAL TALENTS BUT THIS WASNT MY BEST. I THINK I SHOULD REALLY REALLY MAKE A CONSCIOUS EFFORT TO LEARN THE RIGHT WORDS BEFORE THE GLASGOW GIG!
