About This Track

"Violins and Tambourines" is a track by Stereophonics, from the album Graffiti on the Train, released 12th March 2013. Full lyrics are available below.

Lyrics

Violins and Tambourines

Looking out the window, staring at the road

Doesn't really matter, which way to go

Everything is changing, nothing ever seems

To stay the same

Violins and tambourines, an' candy canes and magazines

Preachers sermons on the streets

I killed a man but life is cheap they say

Stopped on the way home, side of the road

Met her at the drug store saving peoples souls

She offered me redemption, take a drink instead if that's OK

Violins and tambourines, an' candy canes and magazines

Preachers sermons on the streets

I killed a man but life is cheap they say

Violins and tambourines, an' candy canes and magazines

Preachers sermons on the streets

I killed a man but life is cheap

Violins and tambourines an' children sing songs in the street

Innocence is underrated, knock me out I'll be sedated

Violins and tambourines and how many drums in unity

Teach yourself romance or pay it, every time we meet you

Wants to save me

She wants to save me

Can't she save me

Won't ya save me

Oh yeah
