跟老爸玩團真的很妙，他老爸給了他 rock and roll 和一個 pure and innocent soul

Lyrics:

I was gripped with a bit of fear
Worried the one thing that I loved
Back when I was just a kid
Might now never be enough
That the body I was in
Might belong to someone else
Someone kinder
Someone surer
Someone innocent
Young and beautiful
Someone purer

That's no one I know

I was scratching at my skin
Hoping changes would begin
But what laid beneath was blood
Well of course
What the hell was I thinking of
Won't you take me down to the creek
Wash away our sins of sleep
I feel so tired
As though I might
Not wake at all on the other side

That's no way to go
That's no way to go
That's no way to go

Oh my dear one
Bathe me in your glow
Cut out my lonely heart
And bury it in the snow
Nothing really means nothing
Is the saddest thing I know
So deliver me from sin
And give me rock and roll

Give me rock and roll

And in the morning there'll be hope
And in the morning there'll be light
And if I sleep and dream up a system
A solution to fend off perils of the night
Come on in, I'll be born again
Born again as someone else
Someone kinder
Someone surer
Someone beautiful
Someone purer

And when I am you'll know
When I am you'll know
When I am you'll know
When I am you'll know

Oh mighty one
The devil knows my name
Will salvation come
And wash away my pain?
For I was once a kid
With a pure and innocent soul
So deliver me from sin
And give me rock and roll

Give me rock and roll
Give me rock and roll
A pure and innocent soul
And a pure and innocent soul
Give me rock and roll
Give me rock and roll
And a pure and innocent soul
And a pure and innocent soul
And a pure and innocent soul

And a pure and innocent soul
Soul
A pure and innocent soul
A pure and innocent soul
A pure and innocent soul


Mystery Jets - Greatest Hits



Lyrics:

You can take The Lexicon of Love away
But I'm keeping Remain in Light
You can take away It's A Shame About Ray
But I'm holding on to Country Life
Well you can keep No Need To Argue and I'll keep The Aeroplane Over The Sea
But hold on to The Boy With The Arab Strap
'Cause I'm holding on to Village Green

I don't know if the knot just needs untangling
Cassette tapes get stuck all the time
But either way I'm keeping Double Nickels On The Dime

These were our greatest hits
(Sha la la la la la la la, sha la la la la)
The best of me and you
(Sha la la la la la la la, sha la la la la)

I still remember buying you Band On The Run
On the first day that we kissed
But you always did prefer McCartney One
'Cause it reminded you of being a kid
No way you're having This Nation's Saving Grace
You only listen to it when you're pissed
But when you sober up, it's always why the fuck
Are you still listening to Mark E. Smith?

I don't know if the knot just needs untangling
Or if we forgot which way's up and which way is down
But still the tape keeps going round and round...

These were our greatest hits
(Sha la la la la la la la, sha la la la la)
The best of me and you
(Sha la la la la la la la, sha la la la la)
The best of me and you

But still the tape keeps going round and round...

These were our greatest hits
(Sha la la la la la la la, sha la la la la)
The best of me and you
(Sha la la la la la la la, sha la la la la)
Our Desert Island Discs
(Sha la la la la la la la, sha la la la la)
The best of me and you
