Careless
Years ago, in the capital things were clicking
Life was fresh but the clock was ticking
Drink was had, in fact he had a few, perched on the towers admiring the new
Cheap guitars and the Old Street bound, dipping in and out of the underground
He was making his own myths, charming the Gods
Receiving the love and playing the odds
Well all the music in the world, it means nothing anymore
She remains in the shadows, broken, disappointed, he let her down
The canals still shining at 3 in the morning
He's talking to himself and that's a warning
The big dogs remain that he had to impress
But his grip on reality was getting less and less
Played the Wild Colonial Boy
Christ he made them weep but his feelings for her, they were deep
Met on the Piccadilly Line, but she met her fate by the Serpentine
Well all the music in the world, it means nothing anymore
She remains in the shadows broken, disappointed, he let her down
Well, all the music in the world, it means nothing anymore
She remains in the shadows, broken, disappointed, he let her down
Damned when he looks back, alone on the escalator
Stumbling out at Finsbury Park
Older but not really wiser
He's got an armful of Pfizer
And a meeting that just won't go well
Older but not really wiser
He's got an armful of Pfizer
And a meeting that just won't go well
Older but not really wiser
He's got an armful of Pfizer
And a meeting that just won't go well
Life was fresh but the clock was ticking
Drink was had, in fact he had a few, perched on the towers admiring the new
Cheap guitars and the Old Street bound, dipping in and out of the underground
He was making his own myths, charming the Gods
Receiving the love and playing the odds
Well all the music in the world, it means nothing anymore
She remains in the shadows, broken, disappointed, he let her down
The canals still shining at 3 in the morning
He's talking to himself and that's a warning
The big dogs remain that he had to impress
But his grip on reality was getting less and less
Played the Wild Colonial Boy
Christ he made them weep but his feelings for her, they were deep
Met on the Piccadilly Line, but she met her fate by the Serpentine
Well all the music in the world, it means nothing anymore
She remains in the shadows broken, disappointed, he let her down
Well, all the music in the world, it means nothing anymore
She remains in the shadows, broken, disappointed, he let her down
Damned when he looks back, alone on the escalator
Stumbling out at Finsbury Park
Older but not really wiser
He's got an armful of Pfizer
And a meeting that just won't go well
Older but not really wiser
He's got an armful of Pfizer
And a meeting that just won't go well
Older but not really wiser
He's got an armful of Pfizer
And a meeting that just won't go well
