Lyrics Underneath This Lamppost Light - The King Blues

Underneath This Lamppost Light

We’ll walk through the city at night
And talk about what holds no relevance
Swaying and stumbling with my arm around yours
I can see pink elephants
And the smell of kebab meat and sausage in batter
Will always remind me of you
In the chip shop at the end of the night
Making sure I get some food
So kiss me underneath this lamppost light
I know it smells of piss but
You look beautiful tonight
If I had the money we’d be in a cab
Not waiting for this bloody bus
But I’ll hold you tight so you don’t get cold
You’re never one to fuss
I kiss you after you’ve thrown up in the gutter
I’d do anything for you
A broken heart and a poisoned liver
But we will stumble through
So kiss me underneath this lamppost light
I know it smells of piss but
You look beautiful tonight
My head is spinning and my body’s shaking
As I cover my eyes from the light
Why do I feel so dehydrated
When I drank so much last night?
When you breathe I feel your tiny body move next to me
And my heart beats like a hammer Lord knows
Cos I’ve travelled through a million towns
But I never seen two eyes as lovely as those
So kiss me underneath this lamppost light
I know it smells of piss but
You look beautiful tonight
