 Growing On Me

I can't get rid of you I don't know what to do
I don't even know who is growing on who because everywhere I go you're there
I can't get you out of my hair I can't pretend that I don't care it's not fair
I'm being punished for all my of offenses
I wanna touch you but I'm afraid of the consequences
I wanna banish you from whence you came
But you're part of me now and I've only got myself to blame
You're really growing on me or am I growing on you?
You're really growing on me or am I growing on you?
Any fool can see

Sleeping in an empty bed I can't get you off my head
And I won't have a life until you're dead you heard what I said
I wanna shake you off but you just won't go
And you're all over me but I don't want anyone to know
That you're attached to me, that's how you've grown
Won't you leave me, leave me alone
You're really growing on me or am I growing on you?
You're really growing on me or am I growing on you?
Any fool can see

One Way Ticket

It was a dusty old night and I'm the first to admit it
I'm sure I upset someone but my memory has chosen to omit it
A tiny voice telling me I really should cool it
Chewing my face off talking absolute rubbish
The first line hit me like a kick in the face
I thought "I'd better have another one just in case"
Next thing i knew, my heart was under attack
I bought a one way ticket to hell and back
One way ticket to hell and back
Bought a one way ticket to hell and back
One way ticket to hell and back
Bought a one way ticket to hell...

I've always tried to keep my vices under wraps
But a coach-load of mutes would appear talkative chaps
If they had seen fit to join me for a couple of hits
Now my septum is in tatters and I've still got the runs
Burned for a moment, then it kicked like a mule
The strangers I recruited thought it was rocket fuel
Several massive choking lines of glorious gack
I bought a one way ticket to hell and back
One way ticket to hell and back
Bought a one way ticket to hell and back
One way ticket to hell and back
Bought a one way ticket to hell...

Stick it up your fucking nose!
Holding court, repeating myself, each repetition slightly louder
Pausing just long enough to snort the white powder
The wheels came off but I'm still on track
I bought a one way ticket to hell and back
One way ticket to hell and back
Bought a one way ticket to hell and back
One way ticket to hell and back
Bought a one way ticket to hell

Christmas Time (Don't Let The Bells End)

Feigning joy and surprise at the gifts we despise over mulled wine with you
On the 25th day of the 12th month the sleigh bells are in time ringing true
How we cling each Noel to that snowflake's hope in hell that it won’t end
Don’t let the bells end
Christmas time, just let them ring in peace.

Well the weather is cruel and the season of Yule warms the heart, but it still hurts.
You’ve got your career, spent the best part of last year apart and it still hurts
So that’s why I pray each and every Christmas day that it won’t end
Don’t let the bells end
Christmas time, just let them ring in peace.

Christmas time, don’t let the bells end
Christmas time, don’t let the bells end
Dust underneath the mistletoe leaves when you’re not here,
You went away upon Boxing Day,
Now how the hell am I gonna make it into the New Year.
Christmas time, don’t let the bells end
Christmas time, don’t let the bells end
Christmas time, don’t let the bells end
Christmas time, just let them ring in peace.
Christmas time, don’t let the bells end
Christmas time, don’t let the bells end

Wanker

It was a hot day and there were boobies Ahoy
I am a bastard I've been a very naughty boy
Hell has no fury like a woman is scorned
I ain't been this miserable since the day I was born
I cocked the whole thing up overfloweth my cup
I cocked the whole thing up

Well, I am spineless I ain't got no balls
I am a wanker no, I won't return your calls
We shared the same dream but you wouldn't let me live it
You took the same brush as the other guys and tarred me with it
I cocked the whole thing up overfloweth my cup
I cocked the whole thing up look into my eyeballs

We shared the same dream but you wouldn't let me live it
You took the same brush as the other guys and tarred me with it
I cocked the whole thing up overfloweth my cup
I cocked the whole thing up look into my eyeballs

Open Fire

I don't waste my time with daydreams I'm living my nightmare
Every semblance of hope in his life surrenders to despair
So I embrace the darkness because it's always there
Give me an open fire blazes in your eyes and burns right through the night
Open fire I can live nocturnally I could live without daylight
Open fire give me a hug on a sheepskin rug tell me that we'll never part
Open fire on my heart

The world's got a dark side every day it turns
But the sun only shines on occasion and when it does it burns
I am not enlightened everybody learns
Give me an open fire blazes in your eyes and burns right through the night
Open fire I can live nocturnally I could live without daylight
Open fire give me a hug on a sheepskin rug tell me that we'll never part
Open fire on my heart

Welcome Tae Glasgae

I hit that M74 I'm heading for
The city that I truly adore
The women are gorgeous and the food is ok
I cannae wait tae be in ye Glasgow
Pride of Scotland take me back
Envy of the sassenach
Welcome Tae Glasgae
Welcome tae Glasgae

Regard my curriculum vitae you'll see I've had the pleasure to play

Welcome Tae Glasgae
Welcome tae Glasgae
Nae bother
