Fishcakes

(album: Spare Ribs - 2021)

Makeshift purple kitchens
And chip shop birthdays there with no nothings
Second hand but I don't mind
Scouring the papers at Christmas time

Where the gym was and the garage
And rows of stale marriage
No hand was as good as mine
Janet and John and fish cakes fry

And when it mattered, and it always did
At least we lived
And when it mattered, of course it did
At least we lived
At least we lived

School and houses mangle
In bricks and lanes of this is jail
Garages and pebbles chime
Asbestos acorn trees hang high

Never want to, never did
Paint and bus stops prick some blip
Second hand but I don't mind
Scouring the papers at Christmas time

And when it mattered, and it always did
At least we lived
And when it mattered, of course it did
At least we lived
At least we lived

E-learning

Walking into town so young
Walking into town n job
Walking into town so young
Walking into town and done

Walking into town so young
Walking into town n job
Walking into town so young
Walking into town and

And when it mattered, and it always did
At least we lived
And when it mattered, of course it did
At least we lived
At least we lived
