Nicer Part Of Town Songtext
Sitting on the step with a cup of tea
Seagulls wailing above the sea
We are one and we are three
Well, how strange it is this life
Lemons on the old wallpaper
Scraping old blood off the radiator
If I don’t see you soon
I’ll see you later
Or I won’t see you at all
Rattling around on this old spaceship
Stars so far that my heart is split
Between wonder and fear there’s not much in it
Well, how strange it is this life
Well, how strange it is
Well, how strange
Oh, Ma I see it
Oh, Ma I see it
Oh, Ma I see it all
And I see nothing
And I see nothing
And I see nothing
Sleeping in a tent at the underpass
Near the Salvation Army where the blue lights flash
Beech tree
Sycamore oak
And ash In the nicer part of town
Blowing out the candles on your birthday cake
There’s a bomb in the Peugeot by the courthouse gate
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
And we all fall down
Laura saw a black bird
Connor saw a bear
Dean saw a garden in the garden wear
Adam and Eve have no underwear
Oh, we all just want a little bite
Well, how strange it is this life
Well, how strange
Oh, Ma I see it
Oh, Ma I see it
Mmmmm
Oh, Ma I see it all
And I see nothing
And I see nothing
And I see nothing
Seagulls wailing above the sea
We are one and we are three
Well, how strange it is this life
Lemons on the old wallpaper
Scraping old blood off the radiator
If I don’t see you soon
I’ll see you later
Or I won’t see you at all
Rattling around on this old spaceship
Stars so far that my heart is split
Between wonder and fear there’s not much in it
Well, how strange it is this life
Well, how strange it is
Well, how strange
Oh, Ma I see it
Oh, Ma I see it
Oh, Ma I see it all
And I see nothing
And I see nothing
And I see nothing
Sleeping in a tent at the underpass
Near the Salvation Army where the blue lights flash
Beech tree
Sycamore oak
And ash In the nicer part of town
Blowing out the candles on your birthday cake
There’s a bomb in the Peugeot by the courthouse gate
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
And we all fall down
Laura saw a black bird
Connor saw a bear
Dean saw a garden in the garden wear
Adam and Eve have no underwear
Oh, we all just want a little bite
Well, how strange it is this life
Well, how strange
Oh, Ma I see it
Oh, Ma I see it
Mmmmm
Oh, Ma I see it all
And I see nothing
And I see nothing
And I see nothing
