We'll never be more than friends
She said to she longingly
in the hotel over tea
We'll never be more than friends
Your boyfriend is your sweet revenge
She said to she, hurtfully
the china cup was rattling
Your boyfriend is your sweet revenge
The horses are in their frame
The family is gathering
the marriage will be happening
The horses are in their frame
We'll never be more than friends
She said to she defiantly
and turned towards her limousine
We'll never be more than friends

Hammer & Chisel
Got my tools in the bag, not gonna listen
packing my bag
Gotta cover my back as I leave now
You’re a package on my doorstep
Wrapped in a note saying do not open
You’re a thief in the daylight
Laugh at my jokes then you take what’s mine
But you can take it all back
Put it all back in your bag now
I’m taking me back
Packing my bag and I’m leaving
Hammer & Chisel
Got my tools in the bag, I’m not gonna listen
Gonna take me away
you can stay there locked in your cage
Hey hey hey hey eh
And you can tell me that you’re sorry
As I’m stepping through the holes
that appear in your story
Say it to my face
see the crease that appears
with a look of distaste, cos
I’m taking me back
gonna put my heart back in my bag now
I’m taking me back
Taking me back and I’m leaving
Hammer & Chisel
Got my tools in the bag, so I’m not gonna listen
Gonna take me away
and I’ll leave you locked in your cage, hey
If I had time, I would be having a clear out
Pull apart our baggage, take what’s mine
And if I had time, I would be having a clear out,
throw away the memories of our life
and if I had time,
leave a little something of mine
hanging on that mirror, on the right
over my black eye
Hammer & Chisel
Got my tools in the bag, so I’m not gonna listen
see me packing my bag
I’ve gotta cover my back as I leave now
Hammer & Chisel
Got my tools in the bag, I’m not gonna listen
gonna take me away,
and I’ll leave you locked in the cage
Hammer & Chisel
Got my tools in the bag, said I’m not gonna listen
gonna take me away,
and I’ll leave you locked in the cage
Hammer & Chisel
Got my tools in the bag, not gonna listen
taking me back
taking me back and i’m leaving

Cold

We all walked through the green door
of this tiny terraced house
us three together
no more school days for us now
we are freshers
so let’s party on
Sing it loud, raise it high,
throw our clothes on the floor,
no more rules in our life, and
We dragged ourselves to lectures
and came home just after One
Found you sitting, on your own
in the front room, not even dressed yet
I said “we’re the lazy ones”
Sing it loud raise it high
throw our clothes, on the floor, no more rules
in our life, but you said I’m
Cold, Cold
All we ever hear you say
Cold, Cold
So we just left you there
We ordered pizza, and two massive boxes
came but you ate nothing
so I joked that’s why your
Cold, Cold
All we ever hear you say
Cold, Cold all we ever hear you say
You don’t go to parties,
you wont leave that floor
and you’re on a go slow
to every invite you say I can’t
I’m just too cold,
Cold, Cold
All we ever hear you say
Cold, Cold
So we just left you there
You saw the doctor, when you started
shouting out, talking to windows
long nights sitting there for hours
we would whisper
what’s she doing now?
Sing it loud, raise it high,
throw our clothes
on the floor no more rules in our life
Cold, Cold
All we ever hear you say
Cold, Cold
So we just left you there
Cold, Cold
All we ever hear you say
Cold, Cold
Sorry we just left you there so cold
