MILITARY STRONGMEN (SINGLE VERSION)
ALBUM: MILITARY STRONGMEN, 1997
Verse 1:
I'm on parade, you don't say: why can't you see that
Keeping my feelings at bay: why can't you see that when
When you're around, you just get me down, I'm better off without you x 2
I'm just better off
Verse 2:
All of the years add up to: why can't you see that
Something has happened to you: why can't you see that when
When you're around, you just get me down, I'm better off without you x 4
You just get me down
It's not me, it can't be
I'd rather leave
It's getting hard, to be a part
Of what is around
Is this the situation of the time
If so you can have yours, I want mine
I know there's something better you could be
Now I am past caring, completely
When you're around, you just get me down, I'm better off without you x 4
WEEKEND AWAY
ALBUM: MILITARY STRONGMEN, 1997
I gotta go gotta get away just for the weekend
I've gotta go cos I just can't stay just for the weekend
And when I go leave the shit behind just for the weekend
And may be then something good I'll find just for the weekend
You've gone and run in the wrong direction x 2
Now you're so fallin in love, you're so falling alone
I don't care this is not my problem
There's not a lot that I'll have to take just for the weekend
There's not a smile that I'll have to fake just for the weekend
And when I go leave the shit behind just for the weekend
And maybe then find some peice of mind just for the weekend
You've gone and run in the wrong direction x 2
Now you're so fallin in love, you're so falling alone
I don't care this is not the real thing
What's forever when I leave
Wipe myself with my soggy sleave x 4
SLIGHTLY ODD WAY
ALBUM: MILITARY STRONGMEN, 1997
You, you x 4
