More Blitz Than Ritz - The Crookes |
| [00:31.35] |
If you are more blitz than ritz they'll tell you every day |
| [00:37.58] |
That she's much too proud to take you out |
| [00:41.55] |
Her dreams a frock away |
| [00:44.78] |
And oh her majesty knows |
| [00:51.14] |
That damn fine girls need damn fine clothes |
| [01:00.14] |
Young girls dance in arabesques so swiftly through the dark |
| [01:06.56] |
And they're hunted by those hounds of men |
| [01:10.69] |
Who search for tell tale hearts |
| [01:13.79] |
And oh we all still know |
| [01:20.25] |
That it's far too hard to ever let them go |
| [01:29.36] |
Don't lose sight of what you were hoping to be |
| [01:37.60] |
Blood stains a rosary |
| [01:43.05] |
And by night the choir's screaming |
| [01:47.35] |
Set that child alight |
| [02:06.23] |
If you long for foreign seas when winter proves too cruel |
| [02:12.09] |
They'll be spitting from balconies |
| [02:16.16] |
The drunken priest's a fool |
| [02:19.57] |
God knows he's too poor to go |
| [02:25.66] |
Begging down on the streets below |
| [02:34.94] |
Red lace from another class tied loosely around their necks |
| [02:40.90] |
And there's young love bound in blood stained gowns |
| [02:45.53] |
They almost had their heads |
| [02:48.61] |
And oh we all still know |
| [02:54.77] |
That borrowed highs aren't worth the awful lows |
| [03:03.92] |
Don't lose sight of what you were hoping to be |
| [03:12.03] |
Blood stains a rosary |
| [03:17.55] |
And by night the choir's screaming |
| [03:21.81] |
Set that child alight |
| [03:55.22] |
If you long for foreign seas when winter proves too cruel |
| [04:04.90] |
They'll be spitting from balconies |
