Stuck in the middle
All the faces the same
Nothing ever changes
It's here to stay
I wanted to be part of it (oh, oh, oh)
I wanted to be part of it (oh, oh, oh)
A face that doesn't fit
or so it seems
You're always welcome here
You're part of the scheme
I wanted to be part of it (oh, oh, oh)
I wanted to be part of it (oh, oh, oh)
You'll never leave
I wanted to be part of it (oh, oh, oh)
I wanted to be part of it (oh, oh, oh)
So glad I've been part of it (oh, oh, oh)
I'm glad I moved far from it (oh, oh, oh)

Shut the schools and take them off us
Build a nice new council office
Paint it blue the polis station
This is called regeneration
This is straight outta cumnock
Build the houses leave them empty
Can't afford a life of plenty
Tear the precinct wait a while
This isnae jeremy kyle
This is straight outta cumnock
Shut the schools and take them off us
Build a nice new council office
Build the houses leave them empty
Can't afford a life of plenty
This is straight outta cumnock

No more wasting time, this town has died on me
Let me cut in line, I have to sign my name
All the work is gone, I blame the corporate greed
Make them pay their share, I got family to feed
Have you looked for work today
Don't care what you explain
Just sign your name
Sign your name and take the blame
We'll be seeing you again
See you again
Every two weeks being left to feel so small
With the roles reversed are you ready for the fall
Missed appointment didn't even get the call
Sanctioned to the hilt, you left me with fuck all.
Have you looked for work today
Don't care what you explain
Just sign your name
Sign your name and take the blame
We'll be seeing you again
See you again
She's the one that let me in
She's the one with the shitty grin
She's the one that let me in
She's the one with the shitty grin
She's the one that's not listening
Have you looked for work today
Don't care what you explain
Just sign your name
Sign your name and take the blame
We'll be seeing you again
See you again

Read all about it it's the news of the week
Don't give a fuck unless your name's on the sheets.
It feels so good to see your face
It feels so good to see your face
It feels so good to see your face
In the chronicle, in the chronicle
Say what you want it's still the jungle drums
Who's in court this time and what have they done
It feels so good to see your face
It feels so good to see your face
It feels so good to see your face
In the chronicle, in the chronicle

Can't pretend there's nothing wrong
Every time you fall
Some nights are so obscene
Got everything you need
At the pleasure beach
At the pleasure beach
At the pleasure beach
Please don't mind the broken glass
All things must pass
Tree swing, fire and more it seems
Got everything you need
At the pleasure beach
At the pleasure beach
At the pleasure beach

Friday night on the piss, out here with my friends
Raise another glass, on that you can depend
Kicked out of the sun we walk across the square
To the craighead but the fun just isn't there
Then they leave to get a taxi for the meet
And I'm left puking up my guts on glaisnock street.
World is spinning round, see two of everything
Face the long walk home, pissed and staggering
Kicked out of the sun we walk across the square
To the craighead but the fun just isn't there
Then they leave to get a taxi for the meet
And I'm left puking up my guts on glaisnock street.
I'm falling down
Kicked out of the sun we walk across the square
To the craighead but the fun just isn't there
Then they leave to get a taxi for the meet
And I'm left puking up my guts on glaisnock street.

Broken dreams aren't made for two
Heavy me and heavy you
Twisted words I once believed
Ain't exactly what they seemed
The truth is falling
I see through your tears
I played into your fears
You managed to escape the pain
But to me it's all the same
Heavy me and heavy you
What's left for us to do
The truth is falling
I see through your tears
I played into your fears
Contaminating you
The poison gets me through
Contaminating you
Cos there's nothing else here
I see through your tears
I played into your fears

A beautiful sight, I can't afford the fight
Does it have to be this way
What's left for me to say
Hey, hey, it's a wonderful day
Hey, hey, it's a wonderful day
Hey, hey, it's like something he lost
As you nail james keir hardie to the mercat cross
Scared of what you know, just let the feelings go
Some things never change
They don't have to stay the same
Hey, hey, it's a wonderful day
Hey, hey, it's a wonderful day
Hey, hey, it's like something he lost
As you nail james keir hardie to the mercat cross

The Flush.

Let it come to pass, be the first and be the last
Believe that it's so
Let it come undone, better old and better young
From so long ago
Let it seem to be, better caged and better free
Believe that it's so
Let it turn to dust, be the best and be the worst
From so long ago
We left behind all the dark and lonely roads
We crossed the flush as we take the long way home
Let it come to pass, be the first and be the last
Believe that it's so
Let it seem to be, better caged and better free
From so long ago
We left behind all the dark and lonely roads
We crossed the flush as we take the long way home

Take time to free your mind
It's simple like a suicide
It's supersized this pain inside of me.
Nothing is black and white
Nothing left black and white
