From The Ritz To The Rubble

Well, last night these two bouncers and one of 'em's alright
The other one's the scary
And his way or no way, totalitarian

He's got no time for your looking or breathing
Now he don't want you too, so step out the queue
He makes examples of you and there's no you can say
Behind they go through to the bit where you pay

And you realize then that it's finally the time
To walk back past ten thousand eyes in the line

And you can swap jumpers and make another move
Instilled in your brain you've got something to prove
To all the smirking faces and the boys in black
Why can't they be pleasant? Why can't they have a laugh?

He's got his hand in your chest, he wants to give you a duff
Well, secretly I think they want you all to kick off
They want arms flying everywhere and bottles as well
It's just something to talk about
A story to tell ya

Well, I'm so glad they turned us all away, we'll put it down to fate
I said a thousand million things that I would never say this morning
Got too deep, but how deep is too deep?

Well, this town's a different town today
Said, this town's a different town to what it was last night
You couldn't have done that on a Sunday

And that girl's a different girl today
Said, that girl's a different girl to what you kissed last night
You couldn't have done that on a Sunday
Of course not

Well, I'm so glad they turned us all away, we'll put it down to fate
I thought a thousand million things that I could never think this morning
Got too deep, but how deep is too deep?

Last night what we talked about
It made so much sense
But now the haze has ascended, it don't make no sense anymore

Listen, last night what we talked about
It made so much sense
But now the haze has ascended, it don't make no sense anymore, ah
