Courgettes

The Pure Conjecture Courgettes歌詞
1.The Power of the Notes Is Very Good

For some reason everyone's talking about
I think I know what
Scratching and boiling and jumping and leaping above all the
thorns

Your passports expired and your dreams are all tired
Your coat is hung up by the door
The money run out so the battery died
I don't think we'll meet anymore
The power of the notes is very good

For some reason everyone's laughing at you,
I think I know why
You're scratching and boiling and jumping and leaping above all
the thorns


2.The Throat

Didn't think I owed you anything
Turns out that I owe you quite a lot
I lied and told you I'd make time for you
Can I pay you back in installments?
Because I got a note from the doctor and an anger in the throat
I collapsed in a weakness as I tried to stay afloat
Oh, the throat.
How can I even make time for you
When there's barely even enough time for me
I haven't been to work at all this week
Have you got a painkiller, ladies?


3.All the Cherries Are Gone

You've been hanging round outside my window
Singing the jarring chorus of dawn
I think you might even really be angry
About the poison we put down on the lawn
Three days of eating all the cherries are gone
A few more stones on the ground, stick on your orange mouth
Don't come to me, cos the cherries don't matter to you
Up in the tree there is only one thing you wanna do
The German man who built up both the houses
And planted all the trees out the front
Has given up on ever having cherries
With his breakfast, or even with his lunch.


4.1st Time I Saw U

Turn out the light, light up a candle and say goodnight
Then once you read, so I read too
Such a complex boy
You don't have to show me why I should love you
Cos it was in your eyes the first time I saw you
They may have lied, the things they told me just aren't true
Then once you read, so I wrote down
All the things that you do
The first time I saw you I knew there'd never be somebody else


5.The Tumbler That Never Ran Out

A week ended frost, I went looking for you but you hadn't
arrived
Well, you'd kind of arrived, but you weren't awake yet
Don't act like you're lost, we're none of us angels - or we
ain't been thus far
So show up and smile like you've been here all along
In amongst all the things that you have claimed that you believe
in
I really must say that my favourite one is the story about
The tumbler that never ran out


6.Knock Three Times

If you need someone who's gonna take care of you
If you need someone to talk to you through the night
Knock three times
Honey, I just wanna be a man tonight
Some kinds of loneliness and some kinds of feeling blue
Can make your eyes start to well, just when you don't want them
to
Knock three times
Honey, I just wanna be a man tonight
If you need someone all you have to do is yell
Baby, chap my door – honey, just ring my bell
Knock three times
Honey, I just wanna be a man tonight


7.This Car of Mine

This car of mine leaves all other cars far behind
But this morning I just can't find the keys to this car of mine
This love of mine, all I want to do is hold her tight
But this morning I just can't find the keys to this car of mine
This heart of mine is fit to break
