B-side to Sick of DIY

Released 16/10/06,
Dogbox Records (BOX15)

 

fingers

don’t get that ring engraved for me, dear
not me, dear
and leave your armchairs where they are
they’re fine

don’t blurt it all out to your mum and dad
that would be sad
restrain your fingers from honesty on the keypad
and you’ll be glad

for i can’t help seeing the end in every beginning
i can’t help seeing the end in every beginning

but don’t hold me
it means you disappear from me

you try to hold us
but in your grip there’s just you and me separately

it’s like nothing ever really ends
it all just accumulates

don’t book that holiday to sicily
for you and me
or be prepared to go alone
or take a friend

i’m climbing your stairs
going up to your room
and i will pay you
but ask for nothing

i’m climbing your stairs
coming up to your room
and i will pay you
but i’ll take nothing more

i can’t help it
and you can’t help me
