Heard your footsteps at the front door and that old familiar love song I knew youd find me waiting there at the top of the stairs. Ive been there and back just to see how far it is you, you tried to tell me but i had to learn for myself Trouble at the depot with the general workers union said itll never change a thing they wont fight but theyre not working Oh you were my hero now youre just my good friend Ive been there and back now i know how far it is. I left you on the debris now we both know youve got no money and i wonder what you would have done without me hanging around. ----------------------------------------- Greetings To The New Brunette ----------------------------- Shirley, its quite exciting to be sleeping here in this new room Shirley, youre my reason to get out of bed before noon Shirley, you know when we sat out on the fire escape talking Shirley, what did you say about running before we were walking Sometimes when we are as close as this Its like were in a dream How can you lie there and think of England When you dont even know whos in the team Shirley, your sexual politics have left me all of a muddle Shirley, we are joined in the ideological cuddle Im celebrating my love to you With a pint of beer and a new tattoo And if you havent noticed yet Im more impressionable when my cement is wet Politics and pregnancy Are debated as we empty our glasses And how I love those evening classes Shirley, you really know how to make a young man angry Shirley, could we get through the night without mentioning family The people from your church agree Its not much of a career Trying the handles of parked cars Whoops,there goes another year Whoops,there goes another pint of beer Here we are in our summer years Living on ice-cream and chocolate kisses Would the leaves fall from the trees If I was your old man and you were my missus Shirley, give my greetings to the new brunette Greetings to the new brunette... ----------------------------------- Life With The Lions (Billy Bragg) intro: (d)|---2------

was Mary Between the deep blue sea and the devil that was me If ever anyone could help me with my obsession with The young Susannah York it was Mary If my pink pyjamas she asked me for something I gave her the short answer She read our stars out load And I knew then that we should have gone sailing But we stayed home instead Fighting on the waterbed Like the honeymoon couple on drugs Me and Mary What happened in the past Remained a mystery of natural history She should have been the last But she was just the latest If she wanted to be a farmers wife I would endure that muddy life I would dig for victory And the sound of happy couples Coupling happily in the dark While you and I sat down to tea I remember you said to me That no amount of poetry Would mend this broken heart But you can put the Hoover round If you want to make a start All my friends from school Introduce me to their spouses While Im left standing here With my hands down the front of my trousers I just dont know whats to be done I wonder sometimes how did Dad meet Mum And how did they conceive of me Tell me Mary The boys who came to the shop Always made her laugh much more than I did When I told her this must stop She didnt bat an eyelid She said you know honey its such a shame Youll never be any good at this game You bruise too easily So said Mary Her two brothers took me out Of circulation for the duration So we went our separate ways but does she still love me She still has my door key Like a bully boy in a Benetton shop Youre never happy with what youve got Till what youve got has gone Sorry Mary

----------------------------------- It may have been Camelot for Jack and Jacqueline But on the Che Guevara highway filling up with gasoline Fidel Castros brother spies a rich lady whos crying Over luxurys disappointment So he walks over and hes trying To sympathize with her but thinks that he should warn her That the Third World is just around the corner In the Soviet Union a scientist is blinded By the resumption of nuclear testing and he is reminded That Dr Robert Oppenheimers optimism fell At the first hurdle In the Cheese Pavilion and the only noise I hear Is the sound of people stacking chairs And mopping up spilt beer And someone asking questions and basking in the light Of the fifteen fame filled minutes of the fanzine writer Mixing Pop and Politics he asks me what the use is I offer him embarrassment and my usual excuses While looking down the corridor Out to where the van is waiting Im looking for the Great Leap Forwards Jumble sales are organized and pamphlets have been posted Even after closing time theres still parties to be hosted You can be active with the activists Or sleep in with the sleepers While youre waiting for the Great Leap Forwards One leap forwards, two leaps back Will politics get me the sack' Here comes the future and you cant run from it If youve got a blacklist I want to be on it Its a mighty long way down rock n roll >From Top of the Pops to drawing the dole If no one seems to understands Start your own revolution, cut out the middleman In a perfect world wed all sing in tune But this is reality so give me some room So join the struggle while you may The Revolution is just a t-shirt away Waiting for the Great Leap Forwards ------------------------------------------- "Walk Away Renee" She said it was just a figment of speech And I said you mean figure And she said no figment because she could never imagine it happening But it did When we first met, I played the shy-boy When she spoke to me for the first time, my nose began to bleed She guessed the rest The next day we went on a bus ride to the ferry And when nobody came to collect our fares, why I knew then this was something special I couldnt stop thinking about her And everytime I switched on the radio, there was somebody else singing a song about the two of us It was just like being on a fast ride at Fun Fair- the sort you want to get off because its scary and then, as soon as youre off again, you want to get straight back on again But oh love is strange And you have to learn to take the crunchy with the smooth I suppose She began going out with Mr. Potato Head It was when I saw her in the car park with his coat around her shoulders I realized I went home and thought about the two of them together until the bath water went cold around me I thought about her eyes and the curve of her breasts and about the point where their bodies met I confronted her about it I said Im the most illegible bachelor in town And she said Yea, thats why I can never understand any of those silly letters you send me And then one day it happened She cut her hair And I stopped loving her.
