Yours Truly Angry Mob lyrics

Sooooooooooooooooooooooo
Everything is average nowadays
Everything is average nowadays
Everyone would do it if they can
And everything is going down the pan
And everyone is following the craze
And everything is average

Now you say it's getting better
But I don't really see the signs
Said it is too different
You thought it would be suicide

Not much to believe in
Left up on a shelf

I can just imagine you and me
Running out of steam
Going through the motions
And I have no idea how you know
When I dipped my toes
In other people's oceans

But you had a local knowledge of the local area
And that impressed me quite
So I tried that night
To do all the things I thought you'd like but that just made it worse
And I impressed you not
Well not a lot

I remember nights out when we were young
They weren't very good they were rubbish
Running round Highroyds isn't fun
Just teenagers testing their courage

Hanging outside nightclubs in the snow
Not very cool or impressive
They let in all the girls from the year below
No need for ID's with those dresses

Got news from afar
From a girl who knows who we are
Still got my dinner money
She can keep it

None of the buildings even look the same,
And underneath them all the shops have changed.
I don't pretend they're in a lot more pain,
Stocking much too young for the professionals to stay in.

I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you.
I can do it, I can do it, I can do it, I can do it without you.

I'm in tunnel to the north again
Everybody has to talk on the train.

I'm just waiting for
The man to come with all my things
And i'm just waiting for
Another man to take it all

And its not hard to tell
That I learnt my lesson well
And I'm just waiting for
The man to come and go away

What are you waiting for
Get up off your seat
Its just seven days
Feels like a week

What are you moaning for
You got all that you want
Your life could be worse
You could be a nurse

I won't be the one to disappoint you any more
And I know I said all this and that you've heard it all before
The trick is getting you to think that all this was your idea
And that this was everything you've ever wanted out of here

Love's not a competition, but I'm winning

I'm not sure what's truly altruistic any more
When every good thing that I do is listed and you're keeping score

Well it starts as a joke
Like a stick in your spokes
Or removing the bolt of the brakes

Then the bicycle flips
Crushing ribs smashing hips
And he broke every bone in his face

Now you're out of control
And you can't fill the hole
That was left by the thrill of the chase
You're a right piece of work
All the flakes go berserk
Have you forgotten how good they taste

You're my kind of guy

There are many things that I would be proud of
If I'd only invented them such as the wheel
The washing machine and the tumble dryer
On these inventions surely I could retire

I want to retire
No longer required
I want to get by without the man on my back
A tear in my eye
With a heart full of pride
I must go out on a high
And tell nobody why

There are many things that I know I could do

(Da da daaa, da da daaa)

(Da da daaa, da da daaa)

Let it never be said, that romance is dead
Cause theres so little else occupying my head
There is nothing I need except the function to breathe
But Im not really fussed, doesnt matter to me

Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby
Ahaa-ahaa-ahaa
Do ya, do ya, do ya, do ya
Ahaa-ahaa-ahaa
Know what ya doing, doing to me?
Ahaa-ahaa-ahaa
Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby

Didn't expect any of this, but it's really nice
Didn't want to cause a fuss, but it feels alright
So thank you very much
That's really nice to know
That you enjoyed the show
And I want you to know when to go
Cos this should be a thrill but it feels like a drill
Now you must let me go, let me go

I just imagine that I'm you and there's nothing nothing nothing I can't do

I can prove anything
I'll make you admit again and again
I can prove anything
The way that it's read again and again

And its only cos you came here with your brothers too
If you came here on your own you'd be dead
Its only cos you follow what the others do
Its no excuse to say your easily lead

You can choose anything
You choose to lose again and again
You could do anything

I can't do it any quicker
I don't want it any slicker
As far as the eye can see
Is miles and miles of icy sea.

So try your best
And think about it later
Or you will never know

I don't feel fear anymore
But I can't risk getting mauled
As far as the ear can hear
The wave is coming loud and clear

So try your best
And think about it later
Or you will never know
So try your best

Boxing Champ

We went to the youth club and we looked out of place.
I didn't know where to look
So I, looked at your face.
But you were a boxing champ, and I was a weakling.
You didn't give me a chance,
You gave me a beating.
And I thank you very much that you did.

And as the time went by we stayed out of trouble,
Before I could realise my age had doubled.
