The Gangway

[Verse 1]

My teacher doesn't stand a chance

When all I can think about is my school-yard romance

He says

"Look at the next generation what a state

I wouldn't laugh if I were you mate"

[Pre-Chorus]

Silence makes the darkest sound

[Verse 2]

Down The Gangway for some one on one

She un-squared me with her cola bottle tongue

She's one of those who has an open mind

But she knows it all anyway so I'm just wasting time

[Pre-Chorus]

As silence makes the darkest sound it's

[Chorus]

Better when you're around

You know me

Inside out

You know when

To sit me down

And sort me out

Growing up true is hard to do [2x]

[Verse 3]

When I go to sleep at night

I wake up blind because my dreams are so bright

Can't wait to die, come back as something else

Knowing my luck I'll come back as myself

[Pre-Chorus]

As money makes the world go down

[Chorus]

It's better when you're around

You know me

Inside out

You know when

To sit me down

And sort me out

Growing up true is hard to do [4x]

It all adds up to zero

And counts for nothing now

It all adds up to zero

When you're not around
