British Boys Letra

There's no golden setting sun

Coming free for anyone

I don't mean to take it lightly

Can't help thinking on it nightly

But all that I can seem to do

Is see the darker side of you

I wish I'd time to be distracted

Maybe change the way I acted

Don't ask me how it came to this

Or what my sense of knowing is



Down the track with sergeant franco

Our one doesn't even rank

Though I've got money on the win

I've got no winners coming in

You said you were lead it'll be alright

You're only lonely it'll be alright

You're slow to show but it'll be alright

I used to move right through you it'll be alright

You dressed to test but it'll be alright

Tear your wits to bits but it'll be alright it'll be alright



There's a girl she's on the run

Who knows what she's running from

On the lam from speaking ghosts

On the lam from what she hates the most

It's a wonder that she is not crying

It's a wonder she's not dying

And I wonder why I care

Care enough that I put it there



You said you were lead it'll be alright

You're only lonely it'll be alright

You're slow to show but it'll be alright

I used to move right through you it'll be alright

You dressed to test but it'll be alright

Tear your wits to bits but it'll be alright it'll be alright

Now for something else completely

You are never gonna reach me

You're a slave to British boys

British boys who make British noise

So don't act like you're above me

Stop pretending that you love me

You've got nothing on me son

And I've got the smoking gun
