She’s a mean green painting machine
She’s on the scene, painting the green things green
She’s a lean green one man team
And of the crop, she is the cream
She’s off her blocks like Linford Christie’s socks,
And ever greener, the green things grow,
The paint and the bucket and the roller know
She’s spreading green like a great green spreading machine
Growing green she is farmhouse tractor
And racing green she is a formula one driver
And deep sea green she is deep sea diver
She loves the green like a thief loves the money
The green is greener spread with her honey
Open the doors and let the green inside
Open the doors and let the green
I know you want me for your hole
I know you want me for your hole
She dug a hole, beneath our house
A very deep hole, dark no stairs
Digging deep with no resistance
She’s a miner it’s true
There ain’t nothing, we, can, do
In her hole beneath the house, sitting still awake no sleeping
What if I were to visit her there, would she lower me down
Into her hole in the ground, would she make me her own
In her hole beneath our home
I know you want me for your hole
I know you want me for your hole
The green is greener on the other side, open the doors and let the green inside
The green is greener on the other side, open the doors and let the green inside
Open the doors let the green inside
Open the doors let the green

She’s drunk she’s had it all, she thinks that she won’t fall
Her friends will catch her, put her in a Taxi cause she loves them all
She meets a stranger, he seems okay
Her friends all like him, he’s the right kind of different but in the wrong kind of way
They stain their lips kiss a sticky blue
Bucket cocktails made for two
That’s me and you
You have to admit, that there’s something in the air
She tastes like last night but I just don’t care
Barefoot home she’s holding on
A shipwreck couple just carried along
And there’s nothing wrong
She knows she shouldn’t
She knows she will you see
I thank you darling,
for choosing me
You have to admit that there’s something in the air
She tastes like last night and I just don’t care
Dancing close we sweat like glue
Stuck together with residue
That's me and you
You have to admit that there’s something in the air
She tastes like lager but I just don’t care
You have to admit that there’s something in the air
She tastes like last night but I just don’t care
I just don’t care, I just don’t care

Why not crack a happy sappy smile at me
You've been fussing and fighting
And trying not to be
Like your Mother, told you, not to be
Why not fly a friendly faced flag at me
You’ve been huffing and puffing
And blowing and bluffing like daddy
Told you, not to be
Your name is written in window dust
Your name is written in air
Your name in butter laid cold on hot toast
Feels like you’re melting away
The things that you do and you say
This is the day, we're on our way to the shops
Buy you a book, won't stop and look 'till we're home dear
Give you away, find you someday like a lost bone
Dream of you someday forget your face when I'm home alone
Your name is written in blackboard chalk
Your name is written in sand
Your name in sun cream on steaming back
Feels like you’re melting away
The things that you do and you say
This is the day, we're on our way to the shops
Buy you a book, won't stop and look 'till we're home dear
Give you away, find you someday like a lost bone
Dream of you someday forget your face when I'm all alone

Save The Day

We climbed up on the bus stop roof
We threw ice creams
Like we’d seen the men in films throw hand grenades
We felt the same
I wrote your name up on the wall, you were not impressed
You woke me up on the way to school, with your best mate
You were a mess you said it yourself
Like something from a horror movie
Save the day, It’s drifting away from me now
I’m not going away. I’m not going away
My head is round with ears to match
One hand to hold you
One hand to catch you if you fall, away from me now
If you fall away from me now
If you fall away from me now
Save the day, it’s drifting away from me now

Two arms, two legs
And a bump on the head
Mean nothing today
Will get in the way
Fold me away
Find me some day
In your arms
Count my teeth with the tip of my tongue
Find relief when I’m coming undone
You won’t see me though I’m wide awake
Dying, dying to be seen
Breath in, breath out
The sorrow and doubt
One page at a time
Fill life line by line
Nothing today
Will get in the way
In your arms
Nothing today, will get in the way, in your arms
See dawn light divide the wall
Paint a door where the shadows fall
You won’t see me though I’m wide awake
Dying, dying to be seen
Dying, dying to be seen
Dying, dying to be seen
