Firecracker |
Been told you no good |
That a job that you hate belongs in a special part of hell |
It was a feeling I knew more than I wanted to |
Working in a Manchester Business Hotel |
Rushing you plate to room 108 |
On new year’s eve 2005 |
I gave two short knocks and you opened up |
Not so standard business hotel type |
But sometimes your future is waiting for you |
Behind a hotel room door |
I had spent 20 years not living my life |
And that wasn’t my life anymore |
I saw your guitar case, asked if you play |
You said, «No, it’s where I keep my machine gun» |
I used to tour with a banjo |
But ever since I switched nobody ever asks for a refund |
You stand for the tree, lean in to see |
Hey, where you goin', do you smoke? |
I couldn’t believe this was happening to me |
When you pulled out a joint from your coat |
But sometimes your future is offered to you |
Rolled up in a cigarette |
I had spent 20 years not living my life |
Right till that moment we met |
And it was like a firecracker |
Watched from a prison yard |
Sitting in that hotel bedroom |
Listening to you play guitar |
Oh, it was like a firecracker |
Oh, it was like a firecracker |
