Old Fools |
| You’ve got your clukes in me |
| Our legs locked at right angles |
| Should scatter like pigeons |
| But I’ll stay here and make sweat with you |
| And kick my own guts out |
| Lose a pint of self respect |
| Statued and sellotaped |
| Tongue-tied and desolate |
| Blow unlucky eyelashes and hide the stray hairs |
| Or should we just give up |
| Take backward bounds and leaps |
| And sit and shy shiver while |
| While the latest one sleeps |
| Cry from the bedroom |
| Clean all the blankets |
| Spend your time wishing back an act that is thankless |
| And those old fools have got nothing on me |
| This is a monolith |
| Can’t help but struggle with |
| The will and the wayward old hat ideals |
| The weight of the uniform and the way that it feels |
| We can’t see round it and all the while we |
| Cry from the bedroom |
| Clean all the blankets |
| Spend your time wishing back an act that is thankless |
| And those old fools have got nothing on me |
| And the distance maps out like the flag of a country |
| I never knew |
| And hay bales with eyes half shut like sheep on sleeping pills under the blue |
| Now sink down you balsa wood box in your chair like |
| It was the dirt |
| I’m going home to certain death, to certain death |
| It doesn’t have to be this way |
| It doesn’t have to be this way |
| It doesn’t have to be this way |
| It doesn’t have to be this way |
| Cry from the bedroom |
| Clean all the blankets |
| Spend your time wishing back an act that is thankless |
| And those old fools have got nothing on me |
| Those old fools have got nothing on me |
| Those old fools have got nothing on me |
| Those old fools have got nothing on me |
