VERSURI THE BEAUTIFUL SOUTH
| The Beautiful South - 10,000 Feet |
| The part of love that I'm scared of
is the actual taking off
I can take a bumpy landing
But the start must be soft
soft, soft, soft
It must be soft
Some men need your attention
every minute, e |
| The Beautiful South - 36D |
| (Heaton/Rotheray)
Close your legs, open your mind
Leave those compliments well behind
Dig a little deeper into yourself
And you may find
Come over here just sit right down
Needn't comb your hair |
| The Beautiful South - A Little Time |
| (Heaton/Rotheray)
I need a little time
To think it over
I need a little space
Just on my own
I need a little time
To find my freedom
I need a little...
Funny how quick the milk turns sour
|
| The Beautiful South - Alone |
| (Heaton/Rotheray)
Like the contents of your handbag
You don't know why it's there
People ask you where you're heading
You just answer anywhere
We don't mean to be this vague
It just happens that |
| The Beautiful South - Artificial Flowers |
| (Harnick/Bock)
Alone in the world was poor little Anne
As sweet a young child as you'd find
Her parents had gone to their final reward
Leaving their baby behind
Did you hear this poor little child |
| The Beautiful South - Foundations |
| (Heaton/Rotheray)
Build your dream castle out of sand
It's bound to get washed up anyway
Dream your dreams out of last week
They're bound to have come up yesterday
If you want to give them flowers |
| The Beautiful South - From Under The Covers |
| (Heaton/Rotheray)
It's 6.00am and even Big Ben
Is trying to get his head down for a kip
But no sooner is it down
And then it's on with dressing gown
For this city very rarely loses grip
But I ha |
| The Beautiful South - Have Fun |
| (Heaton/Rotheray)
Have fun
And if you can't have fun
Have someone else's fun
'Cause someone sure had mine
They came in
now they're having a whale of a time
You should grow a beard
A beard to |
| The Beautiful South - Little Blue |
| (Heaton/Rotheray)
You can't write a novel from a briefcase
You can write a poem from a trench
You can dream a dream from A to B
But you can't catch a bus from a bench
You don't back a horse called |
| The Beautiful South - Minicorrect |
| (Heaton/Rotheray)
They say always use a condom, I say always use a
whip
They say be careful where you come at night, I
just shoot straight from the hip
When it comes to loves great fountain, I won't
j |
| The Beautiful South - Mirror |
| (Heaton/Rotheray)
They could be fat or could be thin
They could be black, they could be white
Tell me who's knocking at the knocking shop door
tonight
Not much a girl can do but open or close
Thos |
| The Beautiful South - Pockets |
| (Heaton/Rotheray)
Here comes Pockets
His trousers hold a thousand deadly sins
The maddest things we ever found in bins
He clutches them and looks at you and grins
Here comes Pockets
The children wary |
| The Beautiful South - Prettiest Eyes |
| (Heaton/Rotheray)
Line One is the time
That you, you first stayed over at mine
And we drank our first bottle of wine
And we cried
Line Two we're away
And we both, we both had nowhere to stay
W |
| The Beautiful South - Song For Whoever |
| (Heaton/Rotheray)
I love you from the bottom, of my pencil case
I love you in the songs, I write and sing
Love you because, you put me in my rightful place
And I love the PRS cheques, that you bring |
| The Beautiful South - The Mediterranean |
| Little seas can be big seas
To the wrong or long of sights
But the Mediterranean
Looks like aspirin tonight
The Doctor told me the chemist
He had nothing for my plights
But the Mediterranean
Looks l |
| The Beautiful South - The Rocking Chair |
| (Heaton/Rotheray)
Here I walk, here I walk
Looking for an angel's wings in the den of the
hawk
Here I am, here I am
With a choice between an also ran and a sunbed tan
And you thought you'd found y |
| The Beautiful South - The Table |
| (Heaton/Rotheray)
This table has four sturdy legs
And a heart of very near wild oak
When others would have screamed out loud my friend
This one never even spoke
I've been sat upon, I've been spat upon |
| The Beautiful South - Tonight I Fancy Myself |
| (Heaton/Rotheray)
She'd brought along the oranges
He'd brought the tea
They'd both brought along a sick-bag just in case
The plate of chicken sandwiches
Were lovely they agreed
And I watched him |
| The Beautiful South - You Can Call Me Leisure |
| You look a younger more beautiful version of death
But I'm scared to hold you close or smell your
breath
Now your body's facing east your heart is west
And you can call me leisure and I can call you

| The Beautiful South - You Keep It All In |
| (Heaton/Rotheray)
You know your problem
You keep it all in
You know your problem
You keep it all in
That's right
The conversation we had last night
When all I wanted to do was
