Coming Second

Peter James Turner, Richard Barry Jupp, Craig Lee Potter, Mark Potter, Guy Edward John Garvey

Found a hole and slipped on through
Kissed the stone and learnt the lines
Jumped the queue all the time forgetting you

Best dishevelled lover 3 years running
Coming second to
A picket fence white 9-5 who's
Just alive

Beyond repair, there is nothing to say
Save some fading regrets
Yet I can't be without this
Beyond repair, there is nothing to say
Save some fading regrets
Yet

I need you to be
To be around
I need you to be
To be around
I want you to say
You'll be around
I need you to be
To be around

Spit-shone lies, juggled debts
Planted flags and made regrets
Muddled through all the time forgetting you

Cut your teeth and breezed on to
Another brother's fickle ways
So why amazed when it don't
Come/turn out your way
