Please, Sir

From Limbo, Panto2008

Lyrics

Please, Sir

Come to from slumber on bed's soft tundra Murky with mourn beside dead uniform And I wish and I hope And I wish and I hope With long drag on me smoke And I wish and I hope That I'll stalk the corridors once more. Please, Sir let me return, if only for a term (how I yearn) It's glee, Sir, with your hot breath upon me (gob gurning in fury) But... I only winded that lad before he bolted And... I only fumbled that lass, besides, I was revolted So for forgiveness, With me boyz as witness, Take these chips with cheese As an offering of peace But... I only winded that lad before he bolted And... I only fumbled that lass, besides, I was revolted So for forgiveness, With me boyz as witness, Take these chips with cheese As an offering of peace

Wild Beasts on Dork

Hayden Thorpe has announced some intimate shows revisiting Wild Beasts songs after nine years

The stripped-back solo performances mark 20 years since the band's debut single.

Wild Beasts: "'Boy King' was the sound of our final fuck flying away"

Wild Beasts were one of the many, many highlights of Live At Leeds earlier this year, and this August they're back onstage for LeeFest.

Wild Beasts: Fit for a king

Wild Beasts have rarely sounded as fun as they do on new album, 'Boy King'. "The more ridiculous it got, the better it felt," the band explain.
