She said 'Meet me at the gates at eight
'Leave now, don't be late' She said one day she'd walk away 'Cause I was always late Thought things were okay Didn't care though anyway Say 'Sorry, babe, I had to meet a mate' Tempting fate We first met through a shared view She loved me and I did too It's now seven-fifty Getting ready, better be nifty Do my hair quickly Step out, it's cloudy Mate bells me to borrow money I've got two Henrys and a dealer to pay Call up on geezers to rid these green trees From my reeking jeans Got a 'you-think-I-care' air Out glaring geezers' stares I'm here and I'm there Couldn't see past the end of my beer What was getting near All of the silence after the tears [Chorus] I didn't know it was over Till it was too late, too ate But if I ever needed you Would you be there? She said 'Meet me at the gates, don't be late' But pretty soon the day came for change And I was glad she never walked away So I'm choosing what to wear Doing my hair with an hour to spare When my life went pear She'd been there with a fixed stare Big wheel climbed to the top Geezers' stares bounced off Standing at the top of this huge mountain Smiling and shouting Spring flowers sprouting Not one inch of doubt in my mind As I reached the gates Came around the corner at a rate Risked her love But I was gonna set things straight Never again am I gonna be late [x3] [Chorus] I said meet me at the gates Leave now, don't be late I waited for a while Listening to her voice mail Mind set sail Then the facts turned me pale Wind, rain, hail My fears unveiled for my fair female She'd walked away Too little to late I step up the pace Walk past the gate Rain runs over my face Spirit falls from grace I purchase a hazy escape at the alcohol place In the chase, I sat down, got a fat frown Weeping and drown in my senses For this love game's expensive I walk in a trance Got a wounded soldier stance And the everyday geezers' stares throw me off balance Now nothing holds significance And nothing holds relevance 'Cause the only thing I can see is her elegance [Chorus x2] |

Turn left up the street
Nothing but gray concrete and deadbeats Grab something to eat, Mickey D's or KFC Only one choice in the city, don't voice in my pity Now let's get to the nitty gritty June reminds me of my first ditty played unique Still 16 and feeling horny Point the sky and feel free See, people are all equal Smiles are front and behind me Swim in the deep blue sea corn fields sway lazily All smiles all easy Where ya from, what ya on and what's ya story? Mezmorizing tones rising pianos, this is my zone so stop cloning Pick paper scissors or stone 'cause me and you are the same I known you all my life I don't know your name (The name's European Bob Sordid, anyway) We'll have a dance now see ya later Pleased to meet ya - likewise, a pleasure We all smile We all sing The night slowly fades and goes slow motion All the commotion becomes floating emotions Same piano loops over, arms wave eyes roll back And jaws fall open, see it's a focus Enchanted is blocking the toilets Dizzy new heights blinded by the lights These people are for life So, back to his place at the end of the night Yo, they could settle wars with this If only they will, imagine the world's leaders on pills And imagine the morning after, falls causing disaster Don't talk to me I don't know ya, but this ain't tomorrow For now I still love ya, hours fly over Sail around diamonds and pearls Never seen so many thick girls Discover new worlds, look at my watch can't focus Last two hours are lost every move fills me with lust All of Life's problems I just shake off Yo, mad little events happen Things might pan out in a few blue Maddens are like the toilets Big beefy bouncers out to reveal us Geezers aren't easy first timers Kids on wiz darlings on Charlie All come together for this party All races many faces from places you never heard of Where ya from, what's ya name and what ya want? Sing to the words fecks to the fat ones The tribal drums the sun's rising We all smile We all sing Then the girl in the cafe taps me on the shoulder I realize five years went by and I'm older Memories smolder, winter's colder But that same piano loops over and over and over The road shines and the rain washes away Same Chinese take-away selling shit in a tray Stalk all around I walk down same sights same sounds New beats, though, solid concrete under my feet No surprises no treats The world stands still as my mind slushes around The washer nut bolt in my crown The life's been up and down since I walked from that crowd We all smile We all sing Out of respect for Johnnie Walker, Paul Oakenfold, Nicky Holloway Danny Rampling and all the people who gave us these times And to the government, I stick my middle finger up With regards to the criminal justice bill For all the heroes out and on the way We all sing ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By MICHAEL GEOFFREY SKINNER <i>Lyrics © Universal Music Publishing Group</i> |

There's no excuses my friend Let's Push Things Forward. |
