Metropolitan Avenue |
Noel Brazil |
First Days in the loft I thought I might live, new faces |
New streets. |
No cash in the hand was making me thing, what now? |
what’s |
Next? |
That’s not to say I was’nt welcomed I was welcomed I was |
Taken in. |
I took the bait when I was hunted I was wretched I was |
Freezing. |
Chorus |
Metropolitan ave standing tall in the winter snow, I’ll |
Be back with you before I go Don’t run like a dog I know how it feels without heat |
Without love. |
Ran free in the park like Jekyll and Hyde, me and Pete, |
Me and Pete. |
Up half the night unwilling witness to some strangers |
Feud. |
Deep underground I hear the notes of some old gamblers |
Blues. |
Metropolitan etc |
This rose will never blossom now it needs light shining |
On it’s back. |
This road will never take me out, I’ve been stopped in My tracks. |
There goes the night and now the sun begins to filter |
Through, |
I took the bait when I was hunted I was wretched did’nt |
Know that I was failing you |
Metropolitan etc |
