Sticks 'n' Stones

When theres no one left to fight boys like him dont shine so bright
Soon as I see the dust settle hes out on the town tryin to find trouble
When theres no one left to fight boys like him dont shine so bright
Soon as I see the dust settle hes out on the town tryin to find trouble
I took a train again away from shame and blame a city pained to see
A friend I hadnt seen since I was drinkin underage
I was a ten a day, howd you say, little ****
White lightnin, heightenin all my courage, quick wit
We wore checkered season wallabies, buttoned shirts and whiskey
Mutton dressed as lamb a fan of bands like The Jam, Jam, Jam, Jam
I dont know who I am, he said I dunno if I can
I said yeah man, you can, can
When theres no one left to fight boys like him dont shine so bright
Soon as I see the dust settle hes out on the town tryin to find trouble
When theres no one left to fight boys like him dont shine so bright
Soon as I see the dust settle hes out on the town tryin to find trouble
Drunk and being sick, I feel like ****, I gotta quit
I hope I havent missed the last train, gonna be stuck in Hampton Wick
With the boys across the platform shoutin lightweight prick
Im a featherweight champion, cheap to get pissed
Wish Candy were here with me, shed definitely deal with it
Tell em all to shut their mouths and go suck their mommas ****s
Cause she aint, no she aint that low, three fingers down
Or the other two up and Ill sing this proud
Runnin with believers, no time for fever
And I havent got time for you either
With your sticks n stones, sticks n stones
I take em home on my own
Runnin with believers, no time for fever
And I havent got time for you either
With your sticks n stones, sticks n stones
I take em home on my own
As I travel down the track all my memories flood back
We were runnin at ease from enemies
And rushed back to your mommas flat
Its the only place but home I feel relaxed enough to crap
I know it sounds crude, but theres somethin in that
Hows Danny doin? Hear hes high flyin and that
Stockbroker in the city with a lady and a baby
And Fee, is she free from the demons she had?
Was it two months clean, routine to relapse?
Runnin with believers, no time for fever
And I havent got time for you either
With your sticks n stones, sticks n stones
I take em home on my own
Runnin with believers, no time for fever
And I havent got time for you either
With your sticks n stones , sticks n stones
I take em home on my own
She smoked all of your **** thats why the loved ones out to leave
Why when you take the lead they stab you in the back
Till you cant breathe when youre bleedin on the floor
And no one hears your call at all
She screamed out to the party, you are sheeps and cattle
I was hangin out with Louie in the shootin gallery
When the news got through to me about you and Jeremy
Pat on my back and a swig on my brew
Youre still my friend, its impossible to hate you
Cradle to the grave, I know we always misbehave
People latch down and then they rain on our parade
Girls, we love leave when we want them to stay
Like today, remember what shall we say?
When theres no one left to fight boys like us dont shine so bright
Soon as I see the dust settle lets go out and find some trouble
Runnin with believers, no time for fever
And I havent got time for you either
With your sticks n stones, sticks n stones
I take em home on my own
Runnin with believers, no time for fever
And I havent got time for you either
With your sticks n stones, sticks n stones
I take em home on my own
Runnin with believers, no time for fever
And I havent got time for you either
With your sticks n stones, sticks n stones
I take em home on my own
Runnin with believers, no time for fever
And I havent got time for you either
With your sticks n stones, sticks n stones
I take em home on my own
