| | Album: | English Settlement | | Track: | N O T H U G S I N O U R H O U S E | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 188 | | | | Lyrics: | T
TTTTT he insect-headed worker-wife will hang her waspies on
T the line; the
husband burns his paper, sucks his pipe while
T studying their cushion-floor; his
viscous poly-paste breath
T comes out, their wall-paper world is shattered by
his
TTT shout, a boy in blue is busy banging out a headache
on the kitchen
door. all the while graham slept on,
dreaming of a world where he could do
just what he wanted to
no thugs in our house, are there dear? we made that
clear
we made little graham promise us he'd be a good boy. no thugs
in our house ,
are there dear? we made that clear we made
little graham promise us he'd be a
good boy.
the young policeman who just can't grow a moustache will open
up his
book, and spoil their breakfast with reports of asians
who have been so badly kicked,
is this your son's wallet I've
got here? he must have dropped it after too much beer! oh,
officer,
we can't believe our little angel is the one you've picked. and
all the
while graham slept on, dreaming of a world where he could
do just what he wanted to. no thugs
in our house,are there dear? we
made that clear we made little graham promise us he'd be a
good boy. no
thugs in our house, are there dear? we made that clear we made little
graham promise us he'd be a good boy.
they never read those pamphlets in his bottom
drawer,they never readthat
tattoo on his arm. they thought that was just a boys club
badge
he wore, they never thought he'd do folks any harm. the insect-headed
worker wife
will hang her waspies on the line; she's singing something
stale and simple now this business
has fizzled out; her little tune
is such a happy song her son is innocent, he
can't do wrong,
'cos dads a judge and knows exactly what the job of judging's all about.
and all the while graham slept on, dreaming of a world where he
could do just what
he wanted to. no thugs in our house, are there
dear? we made that clear we made little
graham promise us he'd be a
good boy. no thugs in our house, are there dear? we made that
clear
we made little graham promise us he'd be a good boy.
