Graham Coxon Album

Jamie Thomas, Jamie Thomas, Jamie Thomas
Jamie skates so nice and clean
Wish he could be my toy machine
Jamie skates so nice and clean
Wish he could be my toy machine
Jamie skates so nice and clean
Wish he could be my toy machine

He's a hero
I'm a zero
He's a hero

Jamie Thomas, Jamie Thomas, Jamie Thomas

Jamie skates so nice and clean
Wish he could be my toy machine
Jamie skates so nice and clean
Wish he could be my toy machine
Jamie skates so nice and clean
Wish he could be my toy machine

He's a hero
I'm a zero
He's a hero

I ain't had no kicks for what seems such a long time
I ain't had no peace for what seems such a long time
I ain't had no kicks for what seems such a long time
I ain't had no peace for what seems such a long time
The fear of being alone
The fear, the fear, the fear
The fear of being alone

I ain't had no sleep for what seems such a long time
I ain't had no hope for what seems such a long time
I ain't had no sleep for what seems such a long time
I ain't had no hope for what seems such a long time

The fear of being alone
The fear, the fear, the fear
The fear of being alone

You can never really run without remaining the same
The truth you carry with you is the gas for the flame

The fear of being alone
The fear, the fear, the fear

[No lyrics]

Fame and fortune
Facts of life
Most of what makes it this useless try
So change the angle of the battle plan
To hit the target
Fame and fortune fancy that
Nothing but rabbits coming outta the hat
So try and catch a falling star
Crush it to dust and stuck it down a jar
And throw it far away

Now the void is back to front
See through people
See through monuments
No reply

The beginning, happy ending
The beginning, happy ending
The beginning, happy ending (one goes up, one goes down)
The beginning, happy ending (one goes up, one goes down)

Smash your face against the wall
Blinded, facing to the ground no no
Pretty faces on the wall
We fall

Piece a point disappear in the sky
Slack the ashes and make you do it right
Pretty faces on the wall Oh no no no

Fame and fortune is a stupid game and
Fame and fortune is the game i play
Fame and fortune is a stupid game and
Fame and fortune is the game i play
Fame and fortune is a stupid game and
Fame and fortune is the game i play
Fame and fortune is a stupid game and
Fame and fortune is the game i play

This is my idea of hell

[No lyrics]

Don't know what I'm doing here
Days are full of chips and beer
I've found myself alone again
Tell me what went wrong my friend
Fags and failure every day
Fags and failure every night
Fags and failure till I lay down and die

I am feeling really bad
Life is turning me half mad
Voices shout inside my head
I can't seem to get outta bed

Fags and failure every day
Fags and failure every night
Fags and failure till I lay down and die

What is happening in my brain
I think I've gone completely insane
Help me baby help me please
This thing has got me on my knees

Fags and failure every day
Fags and failure every night
Fags and failure till I lay down and die

Fags and failure every day
Fags and failure every night

Too much information for our minds to comprehend
This is a joke that's being played to keep us all desensitized
And under strict control of those in power raking in the dough
While souless people wander gagged and silent
Wishing they could scream
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone

It's good to talk if you still can
With your emotions locked inside
A safety that is just as fake as your prescription drug
That holds the promise of another day
But makes you numb to all the shit
They put you through from day to day
That makes you want to scream

Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone

We're nothing, we're laughing
We're laughing, we're nothing

Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone

When you want to fall apart
When you want to hide away
You should keep hope alive
When you feel adrift inside
And feel your optimism slide away
You should keep hope alive

When your world just makes you cry
When your will to live has died away

Once I had my heroes
Once I had my dreams
But all of that is changed now
You took things inside out
The truth is not that comfortable, no
And mother taught us patience
The virtues of restrain
And father taught us bounderies
Beyond which we must go
To find a secret promised to us, yeah

That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when it all gets blown away
That's when I reach for my revolver
The spirit fights to find its way

A friend of mine once told me
His one and only aim
To build a giant castle
And live inside his name
Crying, whispering, singing from within

That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when it all gets blown away
That's when I reach for my revolver
The spirit fights to find its way

Tonight the sky is empty
But that is nothing new
Cos their eyes look upon us
And they tell me
We're nothing but slaves

That's when I reach for my revolver, just slaves
That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when I reach for my revolver
That's when I reach for my revolver

Your inconsistency
Your lack of will
That perfect heart I know
I cannot fill
Don't think about always
Thinking you're always holding my hand
Don't think about always
Don't think at all

I know your life is hard
But so is mine
I'd like to help you but
Ain't got the time

Don't think about always
Thinking you're always holding my hand
Don't think about always
Don't think at all

I know that I am bad
And you are good
But won't you stay with me
As if you would

Don't think about always
Thinking you're always holding my hand
Don't think about always
Don't think at all

I'm truly sorry that
I made a mess
Been confused you know
You probably guessed

Don't think about always
Thinking you're always holding my hand
Don't think about always
Don't think at all

Your inconsistency
Your lack of will
That prefect heart I know
I cannot fill

Don't think about always
Thinking you're always holding my hand
Don't think about always
